Is there some kind of formula to determine the % of lock breaking success based on # of ships? I've looked around and I have found nothing about it.

According to one post 18 people will create a 33% chance of success, with the value of course capped at 100%.

That means 33% 18 guys less shooting/webbing/scram/disrupt and but raping you.

I wonder how this module will work in PVE. It's not uncommon being targeted by 20+ ships in a mission. It should mitigate some of the incoming DPS.

There's no public formula, but if there was I suspect it to be asymptotic to about 50%.

That is, if you have 18 or 180 you'll only get 33-50% lock breaks.

This mod isn't for PVP, but to give a noob mission runner (in high sec) a little more wiggle room to warp out of a site before they go pop.
