You aren't taking into account stacking penalties.

All like modules have penalties to any module over 1 that is in place. So the 2nd Complex Damp only reduces profile by 21.73%, the 3rd is 14.27% effective, the 4th 7.08%.

This not only works for dampening mods, but of mods for any type when you fit more than 2, regardless of tier. So even if you have a Complex Damp and an Enhanced Damp, because they are both damps, you have a stacking penalty.

As a rule, the 2nd module is only 86.9% effective, the 3rd 57.1% effective, the 4th 28.3% effective.

So what would my profile be with 2 mods, and what would it be with 3?

P.s the damps don't say there is a stacking penalty in the game, while the dam mods and chargers and such do.

All modules do, whether it says so or not. There are a lot of unspoken/undescribed things in this game you will find.

What suit are you wearing? What level of that race and suit type are you skilled to?

Problem solved?

I got that from THIS spreadsheet found on the first post of THIS thread. It is a good resource if you have any questions regarding current EWAR mechanics. 1.9 Where cloaked scouts give way to tanked scouts. Problem solved?

Once you create a login profile, you are able to enter your skill levels from the game and then create fittings that will work for you in game. It calculates your scan profile for you, answering your question directly.
