Hey, I don't know if I've missed something but when I'm fitting my Gunnlogi it shows me the resistances of my Vehicle (Shield Damage = #%)
I've maxed out the 10% Shield Resistance skill and so I have -10% Shield Damage, great, I equip a 15% resist and have -23.50%
Why is it already decreasing? |

Shield damage resistance is now shown? Nice, still got a week and a half before I can get my hands on Dust again :(
But as far as your concern goes, I believe it's some kind of bug where the game treats the skill bonus and the module resistance together and starts adding stacking penalties to the first damage resistance mod. I believe this was discovered with armor vehicles when the armor/shield skill bonuses were changed to resistance bonuses. |

It's not a bug, read my edit. |

Your resistance plates reduce your remain damage pool
There is another thread on this matter, use the search for all the math. |

Think of it this way:
You have 50% resistance, and someone shoots something that does 100 damage.
You of course get 50 damage.
If you put a 30% resistance module, you won't get 80% resistance, instead it will take that 50 damage and remove 30% of that.
So you get 25 damage, that means 75% resistance. |

So as you can see, this fits perfectly in your situation.
100 - 10% = 90 damage.
90 * 0.85 (1.00 - 15 resistance module) = 76.5.
100 - 76.5 = 23.5. |

I thought the skill wasn't supposed to stack with with mods? |

CCP know how to do math. This isn't some dumb game where equipping a -50% damage shield and a second one results in damage immunity.
Understanding it requires a working knowledge of percentages. |

What do you mean by "stack"? You mean with a penalty?
It doesn't actually have a stacking penalty, just the way it works when you multiply numbers between 0 and 1 together.
Also remember when using modules of varying effect the resistance module with the smallest numerical value goes first, |

Ah thanks, was never really clear on how resistances worked. |

If it didn't you could in theory get 100% resistance. |
