I'm glad they are buffing them, as passive shield tank setups are usually a better option right now. This makes active more appealing.
I did not know they had buffed them, but I recently held a T1 Frig Tournament for my corp. I flew a Merlin with two Small Shield Boosters as an experiment, because EFT was giving me some nice numbers compared to my usual passive tanking setups. I was very surprised when I made it all the way to the finals with that setup, when I expected to lose the very first round against a corp mate who is always really strong at the tournaments I hold lol. I lost to a Kestrel firing rockets, those things fire damn fast.
I agree that it doesn't really matter until they boost the T2 versions. I'll stick to passive tanking for now.

Civilian Shield Booster now boosts 6hp/cycle, up from 5.

I want CCP to acknowledge this violation of our trust in them, and explain this horrid stealth boost.
Have you ever tried tanking two Gurista Arrogators in an Ibis!?? I think this boost was much needed and long overdue, thank you CCP. The only change that needs to be done now is to reduce the Velators powergrid by 1 so it is not overpowered anymore.
Thanks.

What am I talking about? Simple. I'm talking about how CCP, WITHOUT ANY NOTICE TO US IN THIS PATCH, increased the amount of shields that a shield booster fixes per cycle. I know, people would never believe CCP would stealth buff something, but the truth is here.
Civilian Shield Booster now boosts 6hp/cycle, up from 5. Small Shield Booster I is up to 23hp/cycle, from 20. Medium Shield Booster is up to 68hp/cycle, from 60. All other stats are the same, from cap use to cycle time to fitting.
All T1 shield boosters have been boosted, capital aside. I want CCP to acknowledge this violation of our trust in them, and explain this horrid stealth boost.
Maybe, just maybe, you haven't been reading patch notes all that often:
this
"Meta level 1 to 4 shield boosters now have the same duration as tech 1 shield boosters (meta level 0). Shield boost amount and capacitor need have been adjusted: The efficiency has been increased by +12.5% and the boost rate has been increased up to +12.5% for meta level 0 down to -10% for meta level 4. This ensures that the increase in boost rate and efficiency between tech 1 and tech 2 is in line with the values for armor repairers."
Of course, I could be wrong.
I used shield boosters since December, and didn't notice anything different till after the last patch. I think the accuracy of the patch notes needs a buff, and not the shield booster.

The data dumps for Trinity 1.0 indicate that the change was made then. You just didn't notice the change.

OHNOES!!!
All that time I spent training shield tank skills to fit all T2 shield modules, and CCP comes and boosts the T1 variants! I demand my SP back unless T2 shield boosters get a 12.5% increase as well!
ZOMG! There's no way some nooblet's retriever should be shield tanking as well as my NightHawk! I demand justice!

I confirm that it is old, since Trinity 1.0, not since the last patch.

In reality, there are some BUFF and some NERF :
- All T1 (pure T1) are boosted :)
- All C5-L are nerfed :( (and probably all named)
T1 have a boost :
Small/Medium/Large/X-Large = +3/+8/+20/+50, so +1.5/s / +2.6/s / +5/s / +10/s
C5-L don't have this luck. They give more HP, but require more time (same amount of time than pure T1).
Before (per activation) : (Time) 1.6s/2.4s/3.2s/4s, (HP/s) 15 / 30 / 60 / 120
Now (per activation) : (Time) 2s/3s/4s/5s, (HP/s) 13.5 / 27 / 54 / 108
So -1.5 / -3 / -6 / -12, same if they [seems to] give more hp... and as players avoid pure T1, this is a nerf. Or : How make a nerf a buff for the eye's player...
At least, C5-L require less energy because the time per activation is longer for the same amount of capacitor (now that I wrote it, CCP will change it pff).

Since November on SiSi, since december on TQ. I adapted my fits since, but I didn't appreciate this nerf...
