It has been found out by Redditors, that the Borg now adapt to Physical Damage.
That includes

• procs from Kit modules, that deal physical damage
  
• Melee weapons
  
• Zefram Cochrane's Shotgun
  
• TR-116B (as stated by one commenter, however I tested this and it still seems to do fine)
  

So, never forget to bring a Frequency Remodulator (4 sec cycle), a Fractal Remodulator (3 sec cycle) or better yet a 3pc Omega, MACO or KHG Ground Set for the Integral Frequency Remodulator (2 sec cycle).

The TR-116B still works fine for myself, but if you have any abilities that give extra proc damage the Borg can adapt to  proc damage, but the main hit from the TR-116B still goes through even with the 'Adapted' warning

It's a visual bug, they do not actually adapt to the physical or kinetic damage. Some people on Reddit parsed it and confirmed it.

I was hoping for that. Thanks for the update.

I do not know what's worse... a game bug or the borg adapting to physical damage...

It breaks the Canon!!!!

I urge caution when looking for adaptations. You will get a debuff applied to your character that states what tyoe of damage the borg have adapted to. In my case, i found the borg had adapted to the sompek lightning module I habitually use on ground, and even though i was attacking with my 116, it was triggering the floater.
