Nothing.
Go to a CZ. Kill somehting big like a cutter or perhaps an asp or a python... Scoop the Polymer Capacitors Go to Didi let her work her magic...
Yeah, that's the only thing I didn't do ... go into the CZ.
Oh, I forgot to mention, I did kill one Python as well. But nothing.
Just tailed a Cutter until it's shields were down as it was fighting two (2) Vultures. He took out one of the Vultures by the time his shields were down, but then I unloaded on him. Done.
Now have 2308.5MJ for shielding, Class 6A Shields + 5x Class 0A Shield Booster, all Level 5 Engineered for Heavy Duty/Re-enforced, so I'm still able to fit 400t in my Anaconda. Unfortunately the range has dropped down to 36.7ly, from 39.2ly. But I think the extra protection is worth -2.5ly range.
I toyed with dropping down to only Class 5A Shields + 3-4x Class 0A Shield Boosters, but I don't think it's worth almost -500MJ for less than +3ly range. I'll revisit it when module storage becomes available in 2.2.
