Large shield booster on Gila fits

Large shield boosters are usually not used on abyssal Gilas because large shield boosters are less capacitor efficient than medium shield boosters (and even XL). As you have to fit additional cap modules/rigs even in fits for electrical, you are usually better off with mediums and buffing their performance. Especially c-type medium shield boosters are usually at a good price point as they drop from DED4/10 which can also be found in highsec.

As this guide aims at new players, a regen based fit might be even more suitable. You generally have to get to a certain skill level to make the shield boosting fit work at all (cap skills, fitting skills). A regen tank can usually be pulled off even by low skilled pilots but just doesn't perform as well for them. But they could still use it in lower tiers.

The choice for two high grade implants in the step VI fit seems weird to me as multiple mid grades would give a better performance at the same price due to the group bonus. Is it intended to leave the option to upgrade further to a full high grade pod for tier 6? If so, I suggest to mention it in the text. Erwin Madelung (talk) 12:01, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
