Detailed information

This trait eliminates the power drain that is naturally caused by leaving your ship in Reverse. In addition to this, after remaining in reverse for more than 5 seconds, your ship will begin regenerating Hull and Shields at an increased rate.

The "Improved' version of this Starship Trait also causes Captain Abilities to recharge more quickly, by reducing active cooldowns by 0.2sec from their remaining recharge times, each second you remain in Reverse. This bonus also does not activate until you have been in Reverse for more than 5 seconds.
