Very quick question on the Vindicator Bonus
-10 bonus to cap penalty for use of MWD.
A thorax has a -5 bonus to cap penalty so at lvl5 gal cruiser it suffers no penalty (-25% to the penalty.)
The Vindicator get a -10% bonus what is the effect of this at lvl V mini BS. (-50% to penalty.)

Goes like this I think. The mwd penalty multiplier is 0.75 the bonus is 1.5 so your cap with a mwd fitted on a vigilant is 0.75*1.5 = 1.125 or 12.5% boost to cap o.O

My guess is that -50% penalty means MWD only kills of 12.5% of your cap instead of the normal 25%.
Edit: With Gallente cruiser at lvl 5 my mwd still kills part of my cap afaik. Dunno how muchos though.

err no, doesn't it work more like shield hardeners
MWD penalty = 25%, 50% of 25% is 12.5%
so you end up with total cap * 0.875

Sigh ...
Now CCP is going to find out about this little "feature" and nerf it :(...
I also noticed it... I get a 5% cap boost with minmatar BS lvl 4.
Hope CCP doesn't notice this thread coz it's kinda usefull ;-)
Oh hell , maybe they even intended for it to work like this!
Cheers,

It works like this. If you dont believe it, try it.
Vindicator with lvl 5 Mini BS will end with more then 6k cap after equiping a MWD.
Vindicators are the Blasterships. Not using blasters on one would be like not have Droneinterface skill learned when flying a Dominix.

OMG!?!
I always though it just made it -12.5% instead of -25% with skill at lvl 5.
And I already considered getting a vindicator.
/me starts training minmatar skills from scratch.

that is correct.
I had a vigilant (same mwd bonus) with a mwd equiped, and with my skills (minmatar cruiser at 4) I ended with more cap with mwd, than without.
..pretty nifty if you ask me

Umm.. Is it me or is the actual bonus wrong for the Vindicator?
If at level 4 you are only getting a 5% cap bonus, then by reason -25+(4*X)=5, so X must be 7.5% (not 10% as listed).

0.75*1.4 = 1.05

Nah, the "nerf" was to kill the 50% damage bonus and give it 25% tracking with the Cold War patch 
Ok, so that was just a little oversight on the part of CCP. I still think it's the sexiest ship in Eve.

That is too cool.
Shame this ship cannot use MWD in dead space..
