Frost Lancer not repairing up to 100%?

Just got my hands on my first frost lancer. When repairing it with a siege repair kit it only repairs up to about 40% and seems to decline almost as fast as I repair it. I mean it will go up to 40% then down to 35 % WHILE I'm repairing the darn thing. What gives?

haven't seen that myself...try taking it somewhere "private" in one of the home starter gates and try repairing and observing any degradation...

Disrepair becomes more rapid the longer the siege engine is not in use. Every 4-5 times you use a repair kit, you want to activate the weapon by pressing "E". You don't even need to fire the thing, just enter firing mode and then exit and continue repairing.

That's probably it. I did try repairing it at the home base and same result. I'll give that a try thanks all.

Ok that worked. I repaired a few times and then activated the weapon and exited. It repaired to 100%. Without activating it would get to about 40% and while I was repairing it drop to 35 then 30 etc... Up and down. Gotta be a bug. On a good note was able to use it during a fight with AD last night and there were several other lancers being used. It was quite fun and devastating.
