You were absolutely correct here. For a brief 1-2 days, many NC weapons and some Vanu weapons did have this advantage due to the improper operation of the break point. I can't say for sure, but I believe the developers wanted sniper rifles to pierce Resist Shield, which is now the case. The other weapons, e.g. Gauss Saw and Rebel, are now fixed and are properly mitigated by Resist Shields, though sharp knives, stabbing weapons, still pierce.

I think your judgment of using Advanced Shield Capacitor is a sound one, and if it fits your playstyle then go for it! I think it would definitely have the lowest downtime by 2.5 seconds (looking at the tooltip), and with Med Kits would make for a very "fast" build and one that most always enters combat on equal footing. The reduced EHP from someone running Nanoweave 5, if activated from max health, is 228 which is a bullet or two, so consider that option if you often find yourself one true bullet short of the other guy in a firefight.”

I am the probably the only person in this topic nerdy enough to get this, but I just wanted to let you know...

...he never said sharp.
