| Regen processes in eve (capacitor and shield) are non-linear. Which means the regen rate depends on the current amount remaining.
| | Both Shield and [[Capacitor Recharge Rate|Capacitor regeneration]] are non-linear in EVE. This means the rate of regeneration changes depending on how much, either shield or capacitor (they don't effect each other though) you currently have. |
| | |
| A ship having 1000 shield hp and a regen duration of 10 seconds would have a regen rate of 100 hp/s if it were linear.
| |
| | |
| The reality is that the regen rate is less than that when you are at nearly full hp and when you are at nearly no hp.
| |
| | |
| In between, the regen rate is higher, with a peak around 40% hp. At that peak the regen rate is 2.4 times the linear rate.
| |
| | |
| So for our 1000 hp and 10s regen time ship, when the shield hits 400 hp the regen rate would be 240 hp/s.
| |
| | |
| '''TL;DR: '''actual peak regen rate is 2.4x the linear regen rate | |
