*Coughs and clears throat*
Skill at preventing damage from penetrating the shield, including the use of shield hardeners and other advanced shield modules. Reduces the chance of damage penetrating the shield when it falls below 25% by 5% per skill level, with 0% chance at level 5.
I would like to place a strong emphasis on "0% chance at level 5".
I, like many others in game i have spoken to who have this skill at level 5, when shields drop to a low amount, say 20% or less for example, it is extremely common, if not allways, for the ship to take armor damage.
Also in certain circumstances i have come accross, have not found it not uncommon to take armor damage at 50% shields, and on rarer occasions taking armor damage at high shields around 75% when PvPing.
Seem as this bug has been in game since... forever, i was hoping that its not being overlooked in future patches

I disagree, Sooshie. Sometimes you get in a fight where your shields take quitte a beating. When my shield hits 30% I know I'm going to have to go find a place with a repair bay. Cause not only will my armor take damage, my fittings will be damaged as well. It's a bit annoying when you take the time to train for something and turns out it doesn't work the way it's supposed to work. It's not a matter of nerf this or buff that, just a matter of check if the values for this skill dont contain any typos.

I wonder how quick the devs would be to act if the other races started taking structure damage at 40% armor. There would be carnage on the forums and something would get done with a quick hot fix patch.
The fact that this bug has been in game since the game began and nothing has been done about it is just totally horrible from a ccp service for fixing bugs.
Im sure theyve known about this bug for years, so the question is why dont they want to fix it.

A better idea would be for CCP to add it to the Known Issues list, at least that way people can tell they know about it, even though they're not fixing it.

Damn, I hoped this might be true.
I'd read about this bug in another thread and thought cool, bonus tank with max resist. But after this description it's clear you lot are just talking about a limited form of desync. And yep, afaik it has always been a feature of Eve. Same story for cap recharge.
I've had to learn not to trust the readout if it looks too good to be true.

Shield tankers are better off with it on level 0. And armor tankers are better off with it on level 5. But of course that's not practical for shield tanking and it's quite a lot of odd ball skill points needed for armor tanking.

The thread in my sig has lots of debate about when it is and is not useful. My thinking was that for non-PVE it is always best kept at L0, especially for the passive shield tankers which this skill royally screws. This skill lowers how much shields you will regenerate in the coarse of a fight.
Rather than taking armor damage at 25% shields and thus your shields stay closer to the magic max regen point of 30 or so percent they rapidly decrease to (with L5 which is necessary for shield tanking in a capital) 0% at which point you have an order of magnitude lower regen than at 30 something percent. A high shield regen rate helps everyone including armor tankers.
So, to fly a shield tanking capital ship you have to waste the better part of a month on a skill that hurts you and is likely to throw a close fight against you. Oh, and just to add insult to injury, capital armor tankers don't have a comparable time sink.

Is it right that each level you have this skill trained reduces the effectiveness of your shield tank because of the lack of bleed though? Which means you get less "passive" regen.
If so any chance you could have a look at that as well

Ideally the bleed through would result in -additional- damage placed on armor rather than damage merely -moved- from shields to armor. I know that wouldn't be a favor to shield tankers (or anybody tanking) but it's the only way the skill would make much sense without changing it completely. * * * In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Resists are a biggie also. Unless I've miss-understood the way damage falls through.
With some damage falling through you are increasing the number of hits that are applied at the shield's resistances. This is an advantage with shield tanking.
But a disadvantage with armor tanking, as it means the armor resists are not being taken into account as much as one would expect. Making for a bigger repair bill. :(

damage leak equals you take full damage to your shield and then some damage leaks to your armor. not some damage is subtracted form the shield damage...

If that's the case then this skill does sort of help but can you furnish any evidence that damage is essentially being dealt twice -once to the shields and once to the armor- as opposed to each shot merely having a chance of hitting the armor instead of the shields.

This it how it works:
If u get hit by 100HP of thermal damage. U get same damage to shield (80HP) like when u had more than 25% of shield. But 20HP of damage that shield usually absorbs gets to armor with it damage resistance. So u also get 13HP of damage to armor. Basically shield looses natural damage absorption. That's why its called Tactical sh. comp. cause u can use part of remaining shield to tactically keep resistance as long as possible. It is good skill even if u use shield tank or armor tank because u loose 80HP of shield anyway...
P.S. I was using 35% resistance for armor and 20% for shield. Also if u get it to lvl 5 it's bugged right now. To test it you have to get some1 to shoot you with missile (known damage per shot) when your's shield is leaking and you read armor and shield HP left.

Of course it's possible that no one noticed because of different resists on armor anyway but I don't think it works like this.
Anyway, Nozh, if you could please clarify that? And maybe in http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=520085 or http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=508637 too?
unless that dev comment stated shield to armor damage without the skill would work like armor to sturtuce damage used to work before they fixed it.
then this is how is should be working when you don't have the skill.
damage leaks through. and the damage messages don't cover what took what damage. it ust say you took 100 damage, and if you check your shield you have 100 less shield hp and your armor has taken a little bit. so go test this yourself have one friend shoot you when your under 25% and don't have the skill. ----------------------------------- I'm working my way through college target CCP

I've always thought it was a stupid skill. I'd rather the skill bonus allow me the option to bleed through earlier and take damage to armor with shield resistances.
I never understood why capital shield operation doesn't require shield compensation 5 and shield operation 5, taking a cue from the capital armor reppers. -- Flame on. |

thats because shield compensation doesnt affect capital boosters. Just as some missile skills dont affect all missiles. We have to train double skills and still are suck at everything. Nice to be caldari? yarr |

First let me say dreadnought pilots generally don't worry about repping people and I've never seen one actually rep with a dreadnought.
If it's a small gang everyone tanks whatever the Carrier can rep. If it's a large diversified fleet with carriers you break up into squadrons with a similar tank and role and assign a carrier or two to each group. If you're in a capital fleet then you ideally want everyone to use the same method of tanking but that generally isn't viable so you usually take the same tactic of splitting them into squadrons based on tanking in which case it's fine to only have one type of repper. Really the only time it's useful to have both is when you're repping a POS.
So, in short, most capital pilots will not put a high priority on training both.
Also, shield tankers have to put more SP into the minimum skills to use a Capital Shield Booster than armor tankers do to use a Capital Armor Repper. Further, the required skills for a capital armor repper are more useful than those required for a capital shield booster. So you spend more time training for a capital shield booster and ultimately get less for your effort. Shield Compensation L5 should be required, not Tactical Shield Manipulation. This would put it inline with armor tanking.

My alt spent 22 days training this skill quite early in its life, not knowing it did not work. i now think we should get some use for spending so long training a skill that did not work for so long. the dev's need to look into compensating all those who trained this skill by either giving the time back for how long the skill has not worked for as in an extra lvl4 or 5 of a skill, 22 days trained for nothing a year ago calculates to a lvl5 skill wasted due to a bug... :(

Originally by: devils revenger My alt spent 22 days training this skill quite early in its life, not knowing it did not work. i now think we should get some use for spending so long training a skill that did not work for so long. the dev's need to look into compensating all those who trained this skill by either giving the time back for how long the skill has not worked for as in an extra lvl4 or 5 of a skill, 22 days trained for nothing a year ago calculates to a lvl5 skill wasted due to a bug... :(
or a carrier in jita =)

I would settle for a definitive explanation of how damage leaking through shields works.
Aka. does one shot damage both shields and armor or does one shot just hit one or the other? If its the latter then Tactical Shield Manipulation hurts the tank of anyone who trains it....

when your in a cap ship not taking bleed damage is great.
simple RPG damage type. RPGs with armor and hp, you can take bleed damage. it leaks through and hits your hp as well as your armor. like tabula rasa, your armor just protects the layer under it, it doesn't take damage away.
but without an offical dev reply no way to tell.
p.s. test that again in a cap ship.
and to the above a few, a dev allready replyed here that the bug is fixed. ----------------------------------- I'm working my way through college target CCP

Well, that's simple. We can't. These are visual ar

Some type of Dev comment about how damage leaks through shields and as to why Capital Shield tankers have a longer and less useful training period than capital armor tankers.
