Back then, we were unable to shock while being cuffed because we had the ability to move. If you’re wondering why cops are immune to shocking when they cuff someone, it's because you have the chance to move or run while cuffed by them, unlike SWAT cuffs, which freeze you in place with no ability to move.

If you want immunity to shocking, then you're essentially asking to remove the freezing/stun animation while cuffed.

We just accounted for that, it's like you just ignored everything we said...
"Chance to move or run" Do you really have a chance to escape from a normal LEO once you are cuffed? With the SOC nowadays the moment you are cuffed by a normal cop, you blink and you are in jail, cause the command /ar is short, sure if a cop slips up slightly which rarely happens and you don't instantly get arrested, you're still slow and they can catch up to you in no time. Especially since you can't shock back.
Now as for S.W.A.T. you can't move once you get cuffed sure, but that pours your focus into using /bc more often as well as spamming shock, not to mention as Bombshell said, the extra challange added onto S.W.A.T. that we have to transfer you to the police station and that gives you several opportunitues to escape (hence the compensation of giving S.W.A.T. better cuffs), whether it's from breaking cuffs or getting aided by others, certainly you are more likely to escape from S.W.A.T. especially nowadays with the criminal activity, rather than a lighting SOC from a cop with an instant /ar.
Maybe take away shocking during S.W.A.T. cuffs, since you can already fight with /bc during your transfer, and add it on for normal LEOs instead so you can actually fight back during cuffs instead of instant jail time. Because the only other way I can think of to avoid an /ar is auto /bc

Previously, cuffed players could still move when being cuffed by SWAT, which is why shocking was disabled to keep things balanced. There was always a chance to move, resist, or try to escape. Normal police cuffs are balanced around this idea. SWAT cuffs work differently because they completely freeze you in the exact spot where you are cuffed, which is why shocking works on them even if you're cuffed.

If shocking were disabled on SWAT cuffs while the player is also frozen, it would be too overpowered and unbalanced, especially since the new cuff-breaking cooldown applies only to Cops and Army, not SWAT. This would undermine the system's purpose and create balance issues.

Hmm, I think we should nerf /shock after reading their comments. Disabling SWAT and implementing freezing when /cuff hands are used is necessary, as it would give suspects a chance to escape. They would be able to move around and easily jump into a friend's car to run. Therefore, from my side, let's leave it as is
