Shield Power setting

Hi

According to the wiki Shield Power setting affects both resist and regeneration.

About resists I dont see a way of veryfing this in-game (nothing on stats) btw do abilities like "Subspace Field Modulator" affects shields also or just hull ?

Regeneration doesnt change also no matter what the Shield power setting. But it does change with the "Command - Shield Frequency modulation"

It seems to me like I am using Shield Power for nothing :confused:


PS: Is there a way of disabling the "Assimilated Module" effect from the ships hull, it is ok on big ships bit on my K'Tinga it is looks horrible, the forward pod loks like a mess of antenas and green horns :(

Thanks

    Shield Damage Reduction is not displayed and has to be calculated manually.

    Shield Regeneration is only partially displayed and basically has to be calculated manually.

    For any item with a VFX that can be disabled, right-clicking on it should provide an option for Disable Visual (or something like that, not logged in to the game to check the actual option).

    That was what I was afraid off. At least it works (I hope).

    Thanks for everything.

    Yeah you kind of have to do manual testing for shield regeneration, because for some reason it is beyond their programming capability to have it show total regen value.

    As for it's damage mitigation, it can mostly be noticed with manual comparison in the combat log, or with use of a combat parser.
