I use these on my sliep/cyclone etc and i WTF pwn stuff with it on, But there is one major problem with these..

..GOD MODE...

Thats right, god mode.. Having 2 of these fitted on your ship makes you invincible.. I am trying to killing someone who plays docking games and its impossible when they fit this mod lulz.

Now even though i use this item, i feel it needs to be nerfed to bring fairness back into the game.. What did the armor tankers get? a useless armor hardner? lol.. AND YET CCP want to nerf armor in the next patch..

Bad move CCP, give armor tankers an equiv to this 'Ancillary shield booster' or nerf it! Or they will all rage quit soon, especially when you nerf armor plates...

They're nerfing it in Retribution. It's in one of the latest dev blogs.

just hold them in place until they run out of boosters, simple.

That's a Templar, an Amarr fighter used by carriers.

No, its not simple.. try getting one of a gate or station first.. where 90% of eve pvp occurs..
Anyways from the above post, its getting nerfed.
Now, time to read that DEV blog..

I wondered the same. I think he's saying he took a year off, and that hes back now. Deciphering poor grammar should be taught in schools.

If I had to guess, they're going to give them the standard 5-second cycle time, and probably decrease the boost amount. Nerfing fittings would make them almost unusable, and there really isn't anything else they can touch, such as capacity or reload time, that won't make the module go from too strong to useless.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Nerfing it to one mod per ship, just like the new armor mod already is, would be a step towards balancing it.

It becomes a situational module and no longer has this "must have" sticker for shield boosting ships.

You had a few week break from the forums, atleast with NickyYo (i'd guess forum ban) ... were you really subbed and not playing, just to troll the forums? That's pretty sad.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Since when has that mattered?

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

I thought this was a serious post, then I saw NickyYo's name.

It would be more logical for different sized cap charges to give different boost amounts. 400's in the XL booster should only be half as effective as 800's, but as it is now there is absolutely no reason to use 800's in them.
Not that they'd ever let "logic" get in the way of "game balance" though.

Who put the goat in there?
