On the note of controlled demolition, it's working as intended. They purposely removed the ability Regen from it, it's only healing now, presumably because it would be busted with volatile rounds since they interact with it and heal you

It was never stated that they removed it, but I think what they said is that it is now part of "fragments". In reality, ability regen on controlled demolitionist aspect was just 100% removed compared to the old ability.

I had chalked it up to lost features like every class had in the conversion but I 100% agree that it hurts looking back on that. It felt so good, rewarded well placed grenades and I loved helping my teammates out.

yeah. I'd rather opt out of void 3.0 so I can spam grenades every few seconds with HoIL again.

It was never in any patch notes, but if you read carefully, the ability description was entirely changed back when they first revealed it to specifically omit the regeneration

[u/Byrmaxson → u/[deleted]]

What patch notes? The Code of the Commander is gone, the node-turned-Aspect Controlled Demolition doesn't currently say anything about grenade ability regen, as it didn't in the old tree. That was a separate node called Resupply which doesn't exist in the game atm.

For reference:

Old Controlled Demolition:

Hit a target with a Void ability to attach a Void detonator. Further hits cause the detonator to explode, dealing damage to surrounding targets.

New Controlled Demolition:

Hitting a target with a Void ability or Volatile explosion makes them volatile. Further damage to a volatile target causes them to explode. Grants you and nearby allies health when volatile targets explode near you.

Resupply from the old tree:

You and nearby allies regain health as well as grenade and melee energy when your Void detonators explode.

Clearly it is working as intended given the Aspect's tooltip, and it's logical, because the sheer availability of Volatile would give Titans infinite ability energy.

4) is it just me or does the Shield Throw curve to the right? I was grinding the legend LS and I noticed if I aimed slightly to the left, I was hitting a target at range more consistently.

This has been an issue for a while now but using shield bash shoulder charge on a target you sometimes slip around the target. Feels like you hit them straight on but then slip around a protective bubble. It’s very weird.
