[TI] Hercules Hangar Percentage Bug

Just noticed this when equipping Hercules:

Each Hercules design should only boost shield power on the drone by 15%. But when equipping, there is a percentage change of 18%.
Thought it was due to level 16 drones, but they provide a shield bonus of 15%, so the change would be 30%.



*Note the "Effect": 20% -> 38%

Or did the Hercules get a tiny boost?

 

Your drones are lvl 6 (gives a bonus), your drones are upgraded to lvl 16 (gives a bonus), your drone has Herc (gives a bonus).
Why you would decide to complain about something that has not changed since Havocs, Hercs and upgrades were introduced is somewhat beyond me (you certainly aren't a new player so must have noticed - and thought about this before). Especially at a time when DO in their wisdom has released a new laser that chews through shields faster than a hot knife through butter.

Keep in mind -- The "Effect" (bonus) of upgrading drones to lvl 16 is NOT reflected in the drone description. If it was fitting a Herc would show and increase to 45%, so by looking at individual bonuses - there is 7% bonus missing.
lvl 6 - 20% + lvl 16 upgrade - 15% + Herc - 10% = 45%

NB; Havocs are the same; lvl 6 drones - 10% + upgrade lvl 16 - 6% + Havocs - 10% = 26%. Not the 21% shown in Drone description.

 

Hello @KilerStreak , as mentioned above, what you are seeing is a combination of bonuses and upgrades.

Closing as not a technical issue.
