    Hello,

    I was looking the description on the drone formations, and something confused me: shield leech vs shield spread.

    On the Barrage Formation it says: "Shield Leech will, however, be reduced by 15%" and on Drill Formation: ".. reduced shield spread by 5% ..".

    What these things actually refer to? :)

    Regards,

    Hi,

    Shield Spread means the amount of damage that your shields take. So with Drill, the damage taken by your ship's HP will increase by 5%.

    I think (not completely sure) Shield Leech means shield absorption from your lock by Sab ammo. So basically, with Barrage your Sab ammo damage will be reduced by 15%* [Edit].
