Shield Boost Systems grants 3% passive shield regen/level. It's a x2 sp skill.
At level 5, on a Gunnlogi, that's +4 HP's...
And it's not even 1hp/sec/level.
4hp?!?! A single Complex Armor Rep for infantry does more then this! |

Yes, they do. However the bonus provided from the skill at lvl 5 is only an extra 4hp/sec. Base Gunloggi is 22hp/sec. Mine is 26. This is only a difference of 4hp/sec. |

Make passive shield tanking in DUST work the way it does in EVE and I'll consider spending SP on the skill past level 3 and buying the damn skill that does a worthless 1% regen per level |

Ah, Just like Eve, shields get worse on bigger ships and armor gets better.

Mainly becaue they require more capacitor usage and some cap neutralizers will make quick work of any active tanked shield ship.
Also, shield ships are more or less designed for ranged combat while warp disruptors are close range. So you either need to hit your target hard and fast otherwise it will just run away. Artillery is better for raw damage when compared to railguns.
However, passive tanked shield ships are arguably better for PVE than armor tanked ships. Perhaps when PVE comes out for Dust, this notable difference is seen as well.
Also, remember the Drake! |

that bonus should be provided by another skill, vehicle shield recharging, i think shield boost system provides a +3% more on shield boosters not on shield regen rate, like Vehicle Armor Repairing that provides+3% to armor repair rate I would love to have a shield energizer like the one infantry already have. |

I fly caldari ships like tengus and such so I know how they work, but pve has never been a proper balance point due to locked amarr and gallente damage types and kinetic bonused/hybrid caldari ships. Which means that the vast majority of ships aren't made with pve in mind. Don't forget that the drake can't field as good of a tank as a prophecy, nor keep up with it's projection without gimping the fit. |

a shield tank should have between 70-140 hp/s regen. that should be their advantage, |

As much as I'd like vehicles in Dust to function similar to the way they do in Eve, they don't. I know the statement from CCP is something like "Not everything has been introduced so we can't balance yet." I think there are some aspects of vehicles in general that could be addressed. |

I know the statement from CCP is something like "Not everything has been introduced so we can't balance yet." I think there are some aspects of vehicles in general that could be addressed. But for now, shield infantry and armor vehicles are in the best position compared to the other tank, so I feel that infantry armor and vehicle shields should be done at the same time, to not make one much more viable for every suit/vehicle. Honestly, I doubt true balance between armor and shields will be reached. |

I agree. True balance may be impossible but we can at least close that gap. |
