Hello all.
Here is the question: is there a minimum amount of damage that a turret or missile hit will assign regardless of armor/shield resistances?
For instance, the Sacrilege can be tanked over 80% on all resistances (having kinetik one next to 90%), will this 80% (or 90%) of the damage effectively be absorbed?
Or is there, let's say, a 25-30% (imaginary numbers here) of the potential damage inflicted by a shot that will "bleed" through a setup that would on paper be able to absorb more (i.e. i am hit by a missile for potential 100 damage, I am tanked to absorb the 90% of it, but I am suffer anyway 25-30 damage instead of 10) ?
Thanks for your answers !

I am not sure of your question because I hate reading. Lets use some numbers here:
You shoot an EM cruise missile at an untanked shield. It does 500 dmg max, it hits and does 500 damage, due to 0% resistance
You shoot an EM cruise missile at tanked shield. It does 500 dmg max, it hits and does 250 dmg due to its 50% resistance.
You hit a ship with 0% shield and 50% armor EM resistance with a Paradise (EM) cruise missile. The ship has 250 shields left. The missile will do 250dmg to its shields, and the further 250 dmg will be cut in half, effectively reducing it to 125 dmg. Thus the missile will do 375 dmg total.
Dont know if that answered your question but, meh.

I have noticed that this is not true 100%, try firing a devastator cruise missile to a rifter frigate, the rifter has aprox 180 shield with a mwd, when the missile hits the shield will drop to aprox 20% and part of tha damage will leak though the shield (even if the shield is not completely down) to the armor. I have been told damage can leak from armor to structure in the same way.

In my shield tanked Jaguar, I was hit by a bane torpedo.
It did 300 damage to me, even though my EM resistant was like 60+. The thing was, I still had 70% shields remaining, but I lost almost 50% of my armor.
Is this a regular occuring thing? or a problem that needs addressing?
BTW: the 2nd bane took me down to 10% armor, while I still had like 35% shields.

I remember, way back in the old-days of EVE. Kinetic damage, which IIRC is a bane torpedo, used to leak through shields and do armor damage. Have they brought this back in? If so...yaaarghhh

when using tech2 lasers i've often done structure damage to stuff that still have shields. Not ships, but buildings and stationary objects.

Damage has been leaking from shields to armor to structure as long as I've been playing (~4 months). It's just not very noticeable usually.

Its by design..
thats why you train Tactical Shield Manipulation to use those "hardners"
Tactical Shield Manipulation:
Bonus: 5% reduced chance of damage penetrating the shield.
-there is your answer.. (and solution, to a small degree)
-ank
edit:
-now what factors dictate the amount of damage bleed-through and
wether its a die roll or a set % based on dmg amount and/or type..is open
to debate..
(tho i do like the kinetic theory, sounds like a natural)

Raiding complexes with tech lasers Im doing damage to both armor AND structure before the shields are down.
I run an armor tanked setup, I havnt noticed any structure damage on my ship yet... so im not sure whats going on.

As i can recall, when shields or armor are at 25%, armour will seep through to the next level, and the hardners will lose their elffect.

When i was doing a deadspace mission I attacked the structures and I watched as the structure was loosing hitpoints. it started taking armor/hull damage before the shield was down. And most weird was that when the shield was down I started to do alot more hull damage and I killed it before the armor was down because it was no hull left

Uniformity bonus. With shields at 25% part of the dmg will leak to the armour. Same goes to the hull. The damage leaking is more noticable when a shield tanking ship (or armour tanking as a matter of fact) gets low shields and it keeps at that area. And now with the new GUI you can see it pretty clearly. Damage will start to go through the shield at arround 20~25%, wich is when you start losing armour very slowly. It's kinda logical anyway: you start to get so many holes in the shield/armour that some of the shots will start to get through.

if you really want to see it clearly, go fire at a drone, your own or someone elses, with small turrets/rockets.
youll basically just see all the bars go down at the same time, shields by most, structure by least.
yes, damage dos leak. i dont know if its by % remaining, or by a constant number (i think maybe a constant number given that it seems to leak more on smaller ships, especially drones.)
