Could someone explain to me the difference between the T3 & T4 version of the following chips. I don't see it.
Also exactly how do these "Absorber" chips work. TIA

The duration the shield last for is longer for higher tier chips.
Once your health drops below 30% the purple aegis should trigger, giving you protection. If you manage to heal yourself above the 30% mark, you can also trigger the effect again.

If you manage to heal yourself above the 30% mark, you can also trigger the effect again. The time difference between the two is standard Pix deliberate obfuscation. Heaven forbid they actually be transparent about what this 「dookie」 actually does. Edit - It also allows them to nerf/buff at will. You probably wouldn’t notice a 1/4 second change, but that could be the difference between life and death in many a situation.

They are Ares-inspired Purple Panty Bubbles*. Nothing gets through. Just don’t let anyone get inside your panties. Also, it is quite effective on Nightingale. * TM Credit - Oliver Kloesov

OP..... you’re right, the one missing value is ‘ability duration’
Not sure if there’s a bug with these, but I have a Gold T4 Emergency Absorber, and it comes on for maybe 2 seconds, in battle it’s like it flashes on then off....
I disagree with the comment about not making the duration longer.... hear me out..... Now considering that it activates on a SINGLE threshold of 30% hp, unless I manage to heal after it kicks in, it’s basically a one shot deal..... and for a one shot deal, 2 seconds is a joke. 5-10 seconds should be the duration for this level, with these mechanics..... make it once per battle, and multiply the duration by 4 or 5. Just my opinion

Just my opinion The are way over-hyped. But, I have triggered it at least 4 times in several battles in my Nightingale and frequently get 2-3 uses out of it. Also, it’s kind of funny the number of folks that are that are still running maxed Last Stand with these 30% trigger shields. Edit - I gave up on the “free” T4 Emergency Aegis. F-type Drones are too limiting for most of what I run.
