Is there a way to get 9 charges loaded into the Medium Ancillary Shield Booster ?

No Navy 50's...so only 7 charges.

Only 7 charges, that's what I thought.

So CCP, is this an oversight or working as intended?



To be honest, 7 charges is not enough to fulfill my needs.

ASB have been nerfed : they hold less charges now, and the XL one now cycle slower.

CCP is planning on releasing navy versions for all the charges, so it is just matter of time

Any spelling/grammatical errors come complimentary with my typing on a phone

Yeah they've been nerfed so they only hold 7 charges now which feels a little underwhelming

I'm quite happy about this. Still waiting for the Ancillary Armor Repairer.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

Sell your legacy ASB ships with the old number of charges still loaded into them for a premium. One-time use only :)

CCP, I would appreciate it if you would answer.

Medium Ancillary Shield Booster - 7 Charges:

Working as intended?

It's an oversight?

There are plans to implement Navy cap booster 50s? (If so timeline would be appreciated)

-or-

I have to get a CSM to get an answer?

They probably aren't answering this part because they already have in the Retribution patch notes.

Quote:
•Ancillary Shield Booster
◦Reduced capacity – 7 regular booster or 9 navy boosters.
◦Increased cap need when running without boosters.
◦X-Large booster now has duration of 5 seconds instead of 4.

You can only get a max of 7 boosters in the medium asb.. not 9. There is no way to load 9. So no, the question hasn't been answered.

It has been answered somewhere by a dev before:

But it's really-really hard to implement such a complicated and innovative item, so please stand by and sit tight.

"We want PvE activities to require active participation and mirror PvP more closely." Stacking penalty for NPC EWAR then? Lock range under 9km from over 100 in a BS is not fun. Nor is two NPC web drones making me crawl 10m/s. PvP SW-900 x5: 75m/s.
