How does the Vindicator cap bonus work....
Quote: Minmatar Battleship Skill Bonus: 5% increase to MicroWarpdrive capacitor bonus per level
....with the MWD changes? If you fit a Gist X-Type 100mn MWD which has 0% cap penalty, would you end up with a load of extra cap? or would it just stay the same and make this bonus useless?

When I tried it on sisi yes you had a positive cap increase. Haven't been into my vindi on TQ to test it though. Boink! |

Wouldnt be surprised that you can get a bigger capacitor, yeah.
It used to have 10%/lvl, i think you where gaining cap fitting a plain T1 mwd.

In sisi, with a gist b-type mwd I had handy, I have a 19% cap bonus (i.e. 9416 total capacitor), so yep. Not that it realy matters much tbh. I'd prefer if the mwd's kept their speed. Boink! |

Man its still great.
You get better cap recharge, which helps running ... well, what mods on a vindi doesnt suck cap ? Even the mag stab makes you burn more cap !
Okay, EANMs doesnt ...

When the bonus to MWD cap benalty reduction was 10% per level, it was a multiplicative bonus so at level V, it cut the penalty in half (25% penalty * 50% reduction = 12.5% penalty). Once CCP changed the bonus to 5% per level, it became an additive bonus, so at level V you had zero penalty (25% penalty - 25% reduction = 0 cap penalty).
Now, since the MWD bonuses are still additive, if you're using a MWD with less than a 25% cap penalty you'll start seeing cap bonuses. With Gallente Cruiser IV, I get a 3% bonus to my cap with a T2 MWD on my Thorax. With some of the really nice Angel Deadspace MWDs and high skills, you'll see crazy cap bonuses just from fitting a MWD.
Needless to say, Deimos pilots everywhere are very happy. -------------------- "I am hard pressed on my right; my centre is giving way; situation excellent; I am attacking." - Ferdinand Foch at the Battle of the Marne |
