This time, we take a look at shield tanking along with a recap of resistances and stacking penalty game mechanics.
How do you pick which ships to shield tank?
What’s the difference between active and passive shield tanking?
What size of shield booster should I use?
What’s the relationship between shield hitpoints and shield regeneration rate?

You keep pushing out very useful vids with a lot of factual stuff, compared to that most other “guides” lack details.

Thanks!
Takes a while to script each one and keep it concise but also to provide enough information without going down the “it depends” rabbit hole :smile:
