Acc boosting deflectors question

What deflector is better purely for boosting accuracy? the solanae with its 1.8% booost that seems to be added to ur base accuracy or the Omega with its +17.5 Starship Targeting Systems?

im pretty sure the omega would work out to a higher increase but if the solanae really does increase base acc then would you gain more overall?

Kinda confusing myself trying to work out how it all adds up

    On my KDF tac, I got a better bonus accuracy (while on a real-space map) when switching from my Omega Mk 12 deflector to the Solenae Mk12 deflector.

    I think it was 27.5% before and 29.3% after. I'll correct my numbers and post my points in Targeting Systems when the server comes back

    EDIT:
    Targeting Systems
    Before: 117
    After: 99

    Bonus Accuracy (not in combat)
    Before: 27.7%
    After: 29.4%

    Values were taken in real-space

    The Omega boosted my accuracy by 2 percent.

    I didnt use it for long, the loss in defence compared to other shied and/or hull boosting deflectors was too much for the small gain.

    That all really depends considering 1.8% isn't really much of an increase, as for the +17.5 STS, well there again it depends on your overall STS value because the higher the score goes eventually it will net weaker results.

    thats a good point i had completely forgot about the diminishing returns on skills, i use full STS si i guess omega wouldnt give anywhere near the bonus i thought

    Updated my findings. In terms of bonus accuracy, you benefit more from the Solenae Deflector, which also gives you 35 points to structural integrity. For me, this corresponded to a hull HP increase of 3660, from 40917 (61 points SI, no deflector), to 44577 (96 points SI, Sol Deflector).
