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.

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