Have Shield Cell Banks been nerfed?

Postby Crisp_89 » Sun Mar 15, 2015 6:50 am

Hey guys,

Is it just me, or have the Shield Cell Bank clip sizes been nerfed in recent patches? I would have sworn that the clip size on those used to be about 5-8, but when I was checking my modules tonight on my Viper I noticed it was down to a clip size of 1. Thought it was just a class/grade issue, but upon further inspection every SCB was set with a clip size of 1.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Crisp

i have 2 ships with SCBs, i don't recall which one i was looking at when i noted it though, so it's either grade/class A2 or A3 - but it had 3 in the clip. in fact i think both of them have 3 in the clip (i'll confirm that in-game next)

---> confirmed, A2 and A3 both have ammo count of 3

The amount of SCB Ammo was already reduced with 1.1. Or are you saying it has been reduced again?

I want to say this is a bug. In the outfitting screen. When I put one on my Viper, the outfitting listed it's ammo and clip size as 1/1. I put it on anyway then checked ammo from the station panel, and it has 4 ammunition to purchase. So... yeah. Display bug.
