Icon skillbook2.png Tactical Shield Manipulation

Icon skillbook2.png Prerequisites: Power Grid management III
Icon skillbook2.png I required for: T1 and Faction shield hardeners
Icon skillbook2.png IV required for: T2 shield hardeners
Notes.png Notes: When your shields fall below 25% hitpoints damage begins to leak through to armor. This skill stops that happening. The exact mechanism of the 'leaking', and the consequent use or uselessness of Tactical Shield Manipulation, are subject to pedantic and rather irrelevant arguments; you need this skill trained to IV to use T2 active shield hardeners, so train it to IV and then forget about it.



Icon skillbook2.png Thermic Shield Compensation

To active shield hardeners: 3% bonus per skill level to Shield Thermal resistance when the modules are not active.


To passive shield hardeners: 5% bonus per skill level to Shield Thermal resistance.

Notes.png Notes: This and the other three 'X Shield Compensation' (not to be confused with simple Shield Compensation) skills are low priority skills since they mostly benefit passive shield hardeners, which are very rarely used.
