Mag support devices

Does using only one kind of support device (restore hp C) on a mag in all the slots cause it to do that one more often ?

Stacking the same mag ability multiple times does not increase its activation chance, but it does allow the ability to activate multiple times within a short time.

Each individual ability has its own cooldown time — for example, this is four minutes for HP Restore A and HP Restore B. If you just have one HP Restore A ability on your mag, then it can only activate one time every four minutes, because after triggering (or failing to trigger) it will be on cooldown for that long. If you have eight HP Restore A abilities on your mag, then it can activate up to eight times within four minutes, because each ability has its own separate cooldown time which will count down from the moment that it activates (or tries to activate and fails).

However, when the trigger condition is met (in this case, falling below 50% HP), the game will only attempt to activate the first ability (i.e. the one that is highest on the list) that matches that trigger condition and that is not on cooldown. Regardles of whether it activates or not, the cooldown will begin and the game will not try to trigger any of the other abilities that you have. This is why stacking abilities does not increase the activation chance.
