What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. I was recharging shields (but the same issue is when I am healing)
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? I don't know

How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? When I am recharging shield or healing I have a small amount of lag - it can be seen on the attached video, first the weapon lags (when it goes down) and the the battery (or medkit) lags. These miliseconds add up so I am in actuality healing slightly longer than I should.
What should be happening instead? There shouldn't be any lags while recharging or healing
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game
There is an noticible lag when recharging shields or healing.

Notice how weapon behaves it basically lags.

Does it still do this if you right-click on the game in Origin and select "Repair?"

Yes, the issue is still there after repairing the game.

@Anonymous Do you press the shield button many times? This bug happens on Xbox One too. You just have to wait for the animation of the previous shield cell to end and then press 1 time to heal.
We want to heal fast by pressing the button constantly or near the end of the shield cell timer but then this bug occurs and prevents fast healing. :S

No, I press the button only once, then the weapons lags/stutters and then lowers and healing/charging begins.

@AnonymousI just tested it on Xbox and when i'm pressing the button many times the weapon lags like in the video. But if you let the shield animation and timer to finish and press 1 time for shield cell then it won't lag. Anyway this bug should be fixed. It shouldn't lag even if we press the button many times.
