![Mod TT 20px](data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="12" height="20"><rect fill-opacity="0"/></svg>)
Manifold Bond can be used to reduce the cooldown, allowing it to be ready to activate sooner.
- Gives 25 affinity to the Companion for activating this ability.
- Activates instantaneously regardless of any effects, as long as the shields of the Companion's master are depleted.
- The Companion will still recharge its master's shields while under the effects of an Ancient Disruptor's energy drain which results in wasting the recharge.
- Does not provide any shields in the Nightmare Mode with "No Shields" modifier, although the Companion still receives the 25 affinity for activating the ability.

Works like charm!
The cooldown can be reduced by the new mod Manifold Bond, each enemy killed (with 3 status effects or more) reduce it by 3 seconds, requiring 10 killed enemies to immediatly take it off cooldown. This is achieved easily with aoe weapons or some abilities.
Beat me to it.
Couldn't help but notice it's actually 9 (8 for hildryn:)
You're invincible for 2.5 (3 for hild) seconds per shield gate, so you only need to delete 25s (24 for hild) of cooldown. 9 enemies within 5 seconds,
8 within 6 for hild.
Sentinels are better than any kubrow, kavat, predasite or vulpaphyla just because of this mod, my dear immortal sentinel djinn loves it
Djinn, yeah he can't die..but he's always dead
Haha
Nothing is better than a smeeta since its release, nobody with more than 10h playtime needs this tool to shieldgate lol
What is the cooldown?
Nevermind
You know... time you need to wait after use once before you can use more.
Its when the down is cool
Shield Gate + This oh baby
This mod is really cool. Now give us a primed version that restores into overshields.
this + Hildryn = infinite energy
Just take care not to run out of shields before the invisible 30s timer runs out, which can happen if you are too trigger happy with those balefire chargers.
It's a great mod with Hildryn, the whole point of the game is just to survive for 30 seconds and then have your shields recharge for free.
This plus two arcane Barrier = Super Hildryn.
such a good mod, i love it
It'd be lovely if it can replenish overshields..
image needs updating, as it's now classified as Robotic, not Sentinel. meh. a lot of mods need that update.
Dang it, thirty second cooldown! Wish you could shorten it.
come on imagine frost with maxed redirection.... how much sheild the sentinel can restore every thirty seconds thats crazy!!
Does this mod work if there is no equipped weapon?
yes
Why it doesn't work on Inaros? :Lenny Face:
Because Inaros never runs out of shields, duh.
It drops A LOT in t2 survival. I play that mission regularly for a chance of forma and I have plenty of those...
Just got 2 of these, confirmed that one of them dropped from an ancient I killed at t2 survival orokin void, about 15+ min in.
today, 27/11/2015 looks there's something odd
the mod Guardian began to drop in Orokin drones... even show this inside the codex
stealth update?
agree noticed the same
I notvied this too, I just got 2 of these while doing a normal (orokin container free) void mission.
I guess it does drop from orokin drones now
Yep, can confirm this.
Super weird when it kept dropping on missions. xD
This thing is rare? I have 52 of this mod :D
so according to warframe trading, this mod is worth 20-35 p. I have like 6 of these. Time to get me some sweet plat
Prepare to get disappointed.
how do you know how much enegry it has
Who the hell keeps saying this is a passive precept? That's blatant misinformation, it can be overridden by the attack mods long enough for there not to be an effect until your shield recharges by itself.
"Attack Mods"?? whats that??
Attack mods are the mods that allow a Sentinel to actually use its weapon. For example Striker or Warrior.
