Edited by: Aryth on 01/08/2005 18:28:04 So theres shield boost amps. How come there arent Armor Boost amps?

they do have them (or something similar), Named Hardners that give a perctage of armour..takes a low slot... Don't remember there name....
They just don't call them "Armor Boost Amps" Go figure....

Regerative membranes, but they don't change the amount of armor repaired, only the total armor by percentage.

you can only fit 1 sb unlike ar, so the amp balances it out. _____

Umm, because shield tanking and armor tanking are different?

Exactly whats stopping you from fitting 2 SBs?
Oh, right.

The CPU maybe? Let's pretend we're only using 5 medium slots for our tank, like a Tempest.
2x XLarge Shield Booster 2s, 460 CPU 3x Shield Hardeners, 150 CPU
610 CPU for just the tank. The LOWEST CPU large gun in the game takes 39 CPU each. We'll go ahead and for the sake of argument say you only fit 6 weapons like a Dominix would. 844 CPU. Now lets fit some mods in the low slots maybe. An armor tank uses it's med slots for cap recharge, we'll use PDUs. They take 10 less CPU than damage mods. 15 less than BCRs. Lets say you only have 4 low slots like a scorp, for instance, and lowball it at 80 CPU for them. 924 CPU for our mythical dual booster ship with one of the crapiest slot configurations to in the game. *\o/*
Oh wait. The largest base CPU in the game is 750. And that ship would have 3 empty slots in the above setup, and couldn't fit 6 of the lowest CPU guns -- it would have to use at least 2 launchers or nos, both of which would require MORE CPU to fit.
I - I think I'm seeing why!
lol
Little details seem to slip by people. @ the OP: Because they're completely different tanking systems with completely different slot considerations, completely different stats, and completely different repair rates.

The post above is so wrong.
I was using scorp with 2x xl c5, boost amp, 3x hardeners and injector + disruptor
Lows were 1x cpuII, 2x wcs , 1x pduII. Hi: i don't remember.
It was gankbait. I was using it for empire gate gankers. And then i learned that i'd need 8 disruptors probably.
