i was wondering if anyone knew what the stacking penalty is for modifiers? i heard 20%, so the complex light damage modifier would go 10-8-6%? |

Thanks Lurch I needed to find this, copied and pasted it to here for everyone.
A stacking penalty is a penalty to the effect a module has on your ship. Stacking penalties take effect when you mount more than one module that affects the same attribute of your ship.
If you look in in Description pane of the info window of a module with a stacking penalty, it will have a phrase that is similar to: "Penalty: Using more than one type of this module or similar modules that affect the same attribute on the ship will be penalized." This means that adding additional modules that affect the same attribute will result in a lesser effect of each additional module after the first. This mechanic is in place to prevent ships from obtaining very high effects by simply using many of the same module.
For example, if a player were to add a module that boosted their weapon damage by 10%, then a second identical module, the second module would only add about 8.7% instead of the full 10%. The total increase would be 18.7% more damage instead of the expected 20%.
As a rule of thumb, adding more than four modules of a single type with a stacking penalty results in insignificant gains. |

Presuming it's the same as in EVE (which would make sense for several reasons) then you're looking at 87%, 57%, 28%, 10.5%, 3%
