*Like the armor compensation skills, there are four 'X shield compensation' skills (not to be confused with [[Skills:Engineering#Shield_Compensation|Shield Compensation]] ''per se''!): [[Skills:Engineering#EM_Shield_Compensation|EM]], [[Skills:Engineering#Explosive_Shield_Compensation|Explosive]], [[Skills:Engineering#Kinetic_Shield_Compensation|Kinetic]] and [[Skills:Engineering#Thermic_Shield_Compensation|Thermal]]. | *Like the armor compensation skills, there are four 'X shield compensation' skills (not to be confused with [[Skills:Engineering#Shield_Compensation|Shield Compensation]] ''per se''!): [[Skills:Engineering#EM_Shield_Compensation|EM]], [[Skills:Engineering#Explosive_Shield_Compensation|Explosive]], [[Skills:Engineering#Kinetic_Shield_Compensation|Kinetic]] and [[Skills:Engineering#Thermic_Shield_Compensation|Thermal]]. | ||
**Like the armor compensation skills these grant a 5% bonus to the resistance increase to one damage type that you get from passive shield hardeners per level; as with the armor compensation skills the bonuses they give to active shield hardeners only apply when the active hardeners are turned off and are therefore irrelevant most of the time, but are again useful if you're being heavily neuted. With the skills at 5, an inactive Adaptive Invulnerability field still provides half the resists that an active T2 one normally would. | **Like the armor compensation skills these grant a 5% bonus to the resistance increase to one damage type that you get from passive shield hardeners per level; as with the armor compensation skills the bonuses they give to active shield hardeners only apply when the active hardeners are turned off and are therefore irrelevant most of the time, but are again useful if you're being heavily neuted.
