If the Ship gets a bonus to shield boost amount per level like the cyclone/maelstrom, does this bonus apply to the new Fueled shield booster module?

Those ships should provide their bonus to the fueled shield boosters as well. If they don't, then that's a bug Smile

Has it & other new mods been seeded on SISI yet?

The modules currently do not receive bonuses from command links, if you can check on that

I have a question, are Cap booster 800s and 400s supposed to provide one cycle of boost each? They seem to be that way when I tried it out.

Sounds like a bug.

sorry, but what's the purpose of a fueled booster that you can fire once and wait for a minute to reload it (while it isn't active) or is it all about a burst recharge and then proceed as a normal booster? also observed that it wont reload automatially Question (yes, i checked the reload setting!)

They're kinda pre-gimped. 60 second reload time, can't hold much in the way of charges. Certainly not enough boost to negate fleet alphas. May help hold off small PVP blob for a few moments, but not going to change the world.

Only thing putting me off is their pathetic boost amount. Please buff it to at least T2 levels, if there isn't going to be a t2 one.

tbh I think this mod could use a little tweaking. I'd make it so the thing cannot run on capacitor at all, but on the other hand have it boost double or even triple the amount.

Absolutely insane tank for the 20sec or so you can run the booster, then crippling reload.

My reasoning on this is that this damn booster is atm useless for active tanking, and it's only a minor benefit to buffer tanks as the boost amount is so low you'll only recover a small portion of your HP. Typical buffer is better helped by either another LSE, another invuln, or an EM hardener.

There should be a rather awesome pic here

as a t0 - t2 (eventually) mod only. I think the t0 needs the boosting equivalent of what a meta2-3 would produce over at least 45 seconds within the amount of caps it can load at once rather than match a meta2 per cycle. Then limit it 1 per fit and no activation ability through energy. massive chunks of regen.

A small ancillary for example would boost for 117 per cap for a total of 585hp per 60sec reload
a meta 3 small shield would be 780 within a minute.
but a whole lot better than 130 power free hp. At that rate, may as well stick with a booster that supplies everything with power.

Any hope of getting these seeded on SiSi ?
The heimatar market is currently devoid of them.
