Best shield option with Plasmonic Leech

I've just got my hands on Plasmonic Leech and it means its time to drop my trusty MACO Shield. Can anyone recommend a really good shield to replace it with? I heard once there is a very good Fleet option to use if you can't use MACO.

I only do PvE and I'm a Tactical captain running an Advanced Fleet Escort.

    Elite Fleet Resilient Mk XII [Adapt] [ResB] [Cap]x2.

    I'm sure this is the one everyone raves about, yep. What makes it so good?

    Elite Fleet - it's numbers are basically the best.

    Resilient - 5% of incoming damage is basically ignored.

    Mk XII UR - best mark possible until October.

    Adapt - once it is up and running, 20% resistance to every damage type.

    ResB - resists every damage type enemies use in ESTFs.

    [Cap]x2 - self explanatory.

    This site might help explain the reason: http://sto.gamepedia.com/Fleet_Space_Shields

    The shield he recommends will have the [Adapt] feature, so it helps it to gain a higher resistance to energy weapons, the more it is hit by them.

    [ResB] Disruptor, Plasma, and Antiproton damage resistance by 15%

    And the [Cap]x2 gives you 20% more max capacity.


    There are other combinations you can look at on the site to see if you might like one more than the other. I hope this helps.

    Yes, I've checked its stats. Very good option for end game if you can't use the MACO.
