What?


Nothing in EVE is without stacking penalty. How can this be?

100% resists are achievable w/o stacking adjustments.

I think people in this thread are talking about "Adaptive Nano Plating" vs "Energized Adaptive Nano Plating" and not the new soon to be released "Armor Adaptive Hardener". No stacking penalty you say?

You mean the new ones on SiSi right?

Ok CCP needs to start changing some names again, this is getting stupid

To clarify, I am indeed talking about the soon-to-be-released resistance switching hardener.

No, it's not. Even without stacking penalties, you're still only removing a percentage of a dwindling amount of incoming damage.

2× 50% (non-penalised) resists = 75% total resists.
8× 50% (non-penalised) resists = 99.6% total resists.

Getting to 100% is mathematically impossible without a module that actually flat out gives you a 100% bonus (at which point stacking would not be a factor anyway).

Yes, and we are not. However, if they are indeed not penalised (and if this is indeed not a bug or oversight), then that is actually an interesting balancing act in choosing between the adaptive hardeners and the resistance plates.
