Command Bursts: Difference between revisions

== Command Bursts ==

Upon activation of a {{co|coral|Command Burst}} module you will get a [[File:icon_timer_weapons.png|16px|link=]] [[Timers#Weapon Timer|weapon timer]] for 60 seconds (equal to the module's 60 second cycle time) and the bonuses will spread amongst any and all fleet members within your area of effect range. Both the duration and area of effect range are highly influenced by your skills and if you're using any of the special [[#Command Mindlink implants|command mindlink implants]] or [[#Industrial core|industrial cores]].

All Command Burst modules require the [[Omega clone]] state to be used. However, any character can benefit from bursts fired by fleet members.

For the armor and shield command burst using the [[File:Icon armor reinforcement.png|16px|link=]] {{co|coral|Armor Reinforcement Charge}} or the [[File:Icon shield extension.png|16px|link=]] {{co|coral|Shield Extension Charge}} it usually pays off to have one person run it, as the maximum bonus (+22.5% hit points) will give you a higher boost compared to a [[File:Module icon armor rig tech2.png|16px|link=]] {{co|coral|Trimark Armor Pump II}} or [[File:Module icon shield rig tech2.png|16px|link=]] {{co|coral|Core Defense Field Extender II}} rig (+20% hit points), not to mention the fact it gives this bonus to anyone within range.

The industrial core is a module that the [[Rorqual]], [[Orca]], and [[Porpoise]] can fit that gives additional bonuses to the strength of [[File:icon mining command burst.png|24px|link=]] {{co|coral|Mining Foreman Burst}} modules and to the range of all command burst modules, but only when activated. Activating the core locks the ship down in a similar manner to how a [[Dreadnought]]'s Siege Module works (immobilizing the ship and blocking remote assistance, but significantly amplifying the ship's defenses and other abilities). The industrial core come in three flavors, {{co|coral|Medium Industrial Core}}, {{co|coral|Large Industrial Core}}, and {{co|coral|Capital Industrial Core}}, and are fit on different ships. The Porpoise can fit the {{co|coral|Medium Industrial Core}}, the Orca can fit the {{co|coral|Large Industrial Core}}, and the Rorqual can fit the {{co|coral|Capital Industrial Core}}.

== Calculating Command Burst bonuses ==

For those wondering how these different bonuses are calculated, here's the math behind the way CCP calculates Command Burst bonuses.

=== For strength ===

The various multipliers for '''strength''' are calculated as follows:

The following is a bonus-scale for the {{co|lightgreen|8% resist}} bonus:

The Orca and Rorqual additionally get a 5% per ship skill level range bonus to their [[File:icon mining command burst.png|24px|link=]] {{co|coral|Mining Foreman Bursts}}, in addition to a 50% range bonus to all command bursts. As with most ships with multiple role bonuses affecting the same stat, these bonuses are multiplicative with one another. Ranges with their double ship bonuses, alongside industrial core configurations, are listed below. To keep the table compact, only stats at skill levels I and V are shown.
