But seriously, this makes no sense to me to suppress these powers just because I used Phase Shift and am waiting for it to recharge. Perhaps someone with more information can post up.
I believe that it has something to do with now wanting players to be able to 'phase' repeatedly. As I recall, there is a no phase period after any phase power is used (be it hibernate, phase shift, or any other phase power).
It's not a bug and is indeed working as intended. Kahlan is right, it's to stop players from repeatedly from phasing and perma avoiding debt.
I guess it suppresses every temp power as well as a by-product of the Dev's stopping the temp phases.
Put [NoPhase] in your in-game chat box.... That's the power you get given after phasing.

CoV PvP VG = Disruption - Co-Leader - Union/Freedom

Seriously, though, it's not a bug. The devs decided that being able to cycle through a bunch of 'get out of jail (combat) free' powers was imbalanced. Therefore, using ANY such power suppresses ALL such powers for.... I forget the duration since I didn't care. I have one toon with Hibernate and none with Phase.
But yes, this is definitely how they want it to work and THEY see a reason for it. So don't expect it to be 'fixed'.

Tolerance for Hibernation or being out of phase can only last so long. A brief period after activating such an ability, your body will reach a point where such powers cannot be re-activated again for 120 seconds.
I have been seeing an interesting bug on one of my stalkers who have phase shift and hibernate. Once I have used phase shift, hibernate becomes greyed out and unclickable until phase shift has fully recharged. This also allies to assemble team, ouroborous portal and base teleporter powers.
