Isk.png Price: 170k ISK
Alpha.png Alpha max level: IV
Icon skillbook2.png Prerequisites: Engineering III
Icon skillbook2.png I required for: T1 and Faction shield boost amplifiers
Icon skillbook2.png V required for: Shield boost amplifier II; Capital Shield Operation
Notes.png Notes: A basic shield support skill (remember that an increase in shield capacity also increases the amount of shield hitpoints you recharge every second) which is an uncomfortably long train to V.

Implants.png Attributes: Intelligence.pngMemory.png
Multiplier.png Multiplier: 2x
Isk.png Price: 100k ISK
Alpha.png Alpha max level: IV
Icon skillbook2.png Prerequisites: Engineering II; Science I
Icon skillbook2.png I required for: T1 and Faction shield extenders and hardener amplifiers
Icon skillbook2.png II required for: Micro shield extender II
Icon skillbook2.png III required for: Small shield extender II; T1 shield rechargers
Icon skillbook2.png IV required for: T2 shield rechargers, extenders and hardener amplifiers
Notes.png Notes: A useful fitting skill, makes squeezing some of the equipment used in shield tanking onto your ship easier.



Icon skillbook2.png Tactical Shield Manipulation

Skill at preventing damage from penetrating the shield, including the use of shield hardeners and other advanced shield modules. Reduces the chance of damage penetrating the shield when it falls below 25% by 5% per skill level, with 0% chance at level 5.
Implants.png Attributes: Intelligence.pngMemory.png
Multiplier.png Multiplier: 4x
Isk.png Price: 210k ISK
Alpha.png Alpha max level: IV

Icon skillbook2.png I required for: T1 and Faction shield hardeners
Icon skillbook2.png IV required for: T2 shield hardeners
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.



Icon skillbook2.png Thermic Shield Compensation
