**{{sk|Shield Operation}}: 5% faster shield recharge rate per level; quick to train, good for everyone, vital if you ever plan to mount a [[Shield tanking#Shield_Tanking_Styles|passive shield tank]]

**{{sk|Tactical Shield Manipulation}}: When your shields drop below 25%, damage begins to 'leak' through into your armor; each level in this skill lets your shields drop 5% lower before this begins to happen, to 0% at level V so that damage never leaks through

***Tactical Shield Manipulation's usefulness is disputed, but level IV is required to use the very useful T2 active shield hardeners, so most people train it to IV and then forget about it

***Tactical Shield Manipulation's usefulness is disputed, but level IV is required to use the very useful T2 active shield hardeners, so most people train it to IV and then forget about it. Level V is required to use the Pulse Activated Nexus Invulnerability Core (PANIC) module for the [[Rorqual]], but this is a very specific requirement and the skill level is not required for anything else.

**Like the armor compensation skills, there are four 'X Shield Compensation' skills (not to be confused with {{sk|Shield Compensation}} ''per se''!): {{sk|EM Shield Compensation}}, {{sk|Explosive Shield Compensation}}, {{sk|Kinetic Shield Compensation}} and {{sk|Thermal Shield Compensation}}.

***Like the armor compensation skills these grant a 5% bonus to the resistance increase to one damage type that you get from '''passive''' Shield Resistance Amplifiers per level.
