We had some poco's we reinforced that came out about 10 hours after this recent patch and they all exited reinforce with 95% shield. I thought it was a bug and we shot them anyway and they promptly went back into reinforce again............without ever getting repped.

I would also like to make a comment regarding another post which indicates that alliance tax rate gets overridden by the standings tax contrary to how it should work.

Anyone able to confirm if this is intentional and not just CCP messing with the customs office files.

That hapenned with 2 POCOs that were reinforced just before the patch. these POCOs are shootable while reinforced if they have more than 25% shield and the shield recharge is active.

They can be shot down after downtime even in reinforced mode. Their shield is at 0% after the down time. I have screeny if people from CCP need it.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned but I locked up a poco that was in reinforce mode and had 1 day 2 minutes left on it and started shooting it. Once I got to 25% shields, it went back into invulnerable mode but the reinforce clock simply continue to tick. So I guess the way to kill poco's as it is now is to show up at a time before it exits reinforce and put it back down to 25%/invulnerable with less than 2 hours left on the clock.

How silly.

Yeah same for me ..

1) Shot Poco down to 25% went reinforced = Normal
2) Come back after 1 day 2 hour time - Shields back at 90% whilst reinforced ????? wtf
3) Started shooting tower again - Loosing shield whilst reinforced, reached 25% again, went into second reinforce another 1 day 20 hours whilst it was STILL in reinforcement.
4) Wasted Game time for no reason
5) Raged for 1 min 20 secs - Wrote a petition - Went to sleep

Moral of the story - CCP Pocos are broken, fix it please :)

I had 2 pocos get shot, come out of reinforced at 0300ish yesterday. Went to rep, at 100% already, shot it once it dropped to 99, repped it, went home. Those same pocos were shot and killed with no rf timer 12 hours later...
