Thokk Nightshade KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 473	Posted - 2014.09.03 01:36:00 - [1] - Quote So, I'm not totally sure on the math here (because I've never seen any specifics on what the penalty actually is) and I was wondering if any of you kind forum warriors could give me some help. At what point, due to the stack penalty, is it no longer effective to use a complex damage modifier in lieu of an enhanced modifier? Right now the complex light damage mod is +7% and an enhanced light damage mod is 5%. After how many mods does a complex damage mod only add 5% or less? Didn't really feel this fit in any of the other forums so I'm throwing it in here. Thanks in advance for the help people! Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.

Adipem Nothi Nos Nothi 4714	Posted - 2014.09.03 01:58:00 - [4] - Quote 1st Module = 100.00% 2nd Module = 86.91% 3rd Module = 57.06% 4th Module = 28.30% Shoot scout with yes. - Ripley Riley
Thokk Nightshade KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 474	Posted - 2014.09.03 02:19:00 - [5] - Quote So for maximum results, I would go 2 Complex damage mods, then 2 enhanced damage mods, and 1 basic damage mod? that would give me the highest possible DPS? I'm seeing 13.51 + 9.56 + 3 for a total of 21.87% Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.

Thokk Nightshade KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 474	Posted - 2014.09.03 02:25:00 - [7] - Quote Damn it! Well that just sucks then. How am I supposed to run 5 damage mods if I'm not getting any worthwhile bonuses out of it? LOL Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.
Thokk Nightshade KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 474	Posted - 2014.09.03 02:27:00 - [8] - Quote So, by running 5 complex damage mods, I'm still at 21.27%. The last one is only.74% so negligible. I guess that means 4 complex damage mods an enhanced shield extender then. Thanks for the info and the link, gentlemen. Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.

BL4CKST4R La Muerte Eterna Dark Taboo 2988	Posted - 2014.09.03 03:32:00 - [11] - Quote Don't stack more than one u less your an amarr or Gallente brick tanking. You get 7% for the first one 6.5~ for the second one 3 or 4 for the third one and the fourth one and so forth are useless. supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Thokk Nightshade KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 475	Posted - 2014.09.03 03:36:00 - [12] - Quote Yeah, I went through and figured out what 5 complex damage mods would do. After 2, it drops off quite a bit. The 4th complex damage mod only does like 2% and the 5th one only does .74%. 2 is worth it, 3 and four I can throw on if I don't plan on getting shot (see: Sniper) The 5th is a waste of space. Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.
Vulpes Dolosus Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 1977	Posted - 2014.09.03 05:03:00 - [13] - Quote In general, you never want to use more than 3 mods that have a similar stacking penalty. And in all honestly, unless you're in a position where you need damage over anything else (sniping, forging mostly), use enh damage mods as they are only slightly worse off but have a way lower fitting than complex, opening more space for weapons, equipment, defenses, etc.

I have a Proto Cal Logi with 5 high slots and I was wondering how many damage mods would be worth it before the CPU/PG usage was no longer worth it. I am going to swap the additional two for profile dampeners to make it harder for people to see me when I'm hiding up in them thar hills or behind a building. Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.
