Overview

Fleet boosts...

• …come in two flavors: active (modules) and passive (skills)
• …require an intact command structure
• …work on pilots in a single solar system
• …do not require you to be on grid with commander or booster
• …do not directly increase damage output
• …that affect the same attribute will not stack with each other
  • The strongest effect will always be applied
• …are stacking penalized with modules affecting the same attribute on the ship
