Stacking penalty refers to the game mechanic in which the effectiveness of modules and rigs are reduced if more than one item is fitted on a ship which effects the same statistic. For instance, if a module or rig grants a 10% boost to a ship’s velocity and another module or rig which grants 5% boost to the ships are both fitted, the ship will not receive a 15% boost to the velocity. Because both these items effect velocity their effectiveness is reduced. The more items that effect the same ships attribute that are fitted the less effect they will have overall. Typically fitting more than three modules that affects the same statistic brings little benefit.
It’s also important to note that the sequence the modules are fitted to the ship do not determine how effective they are. The stacking penalty will be calculated based on the highest modifier granting its full bonus, then the second highest will receive a small penalty, the third strongest module receiving a higher penalty than the second and so on.This is reflected in the table below:
First: 100% effective
Second: 86.9% effective
Third: 57.1% effective
Fourth: 28.3% effective
Fifth: 10.6% effective
Typically, any items that is affected will have the following message in their information window:
‘Penalty: Using more than one type of this module or similar modules that affect the same attribute on the ship will be penalized.’
This is what I am talking about. You lose efficiency with the more of the same module. The exception is the drones and with guns and launchers. But in the main. That one second you picked up can be achieved through rigs and/or a module. With three onboard your ship as shown in the post. You lost anywhere from almost 20% to just about 50%. This is not me instructing you on how you should fit a ship.
I am trying to get across to that the second that you got with more than two modules. It is better achieved through better choices. As I posted above as examples from someone that has lot more knowledge than I do. I have some admittedly subpar fits on a destroyers and frigates. That I fitted when I had less Isk and a much tighter budget. Good for what I was doing then, but not much past that.
