Item Database:Ship Equipment:Gang Assist Modules
From Backstage Lore Wiki
Gang assist modules can be broken down into 3 general categories:
Warfare Links.
- These active modules can be used by the Gang Booster to give a passive buff to all ships in the Gang.
- These modules can only be used by the following ships due to the CPU mitigating buff these ships have. Battlecruisers, Command ships, Capital industrial ships, Carriers and Titans. It is worth noting that in the case of Command ships and Capital industrial ships a buff to a certain type of warfare link is received.
- Battlecruisers, Carriers and Field command ships can only fit 1 module. Fleet command ships and Capital industrial ships can fit 3. A Titan depending on level can fit upto 5. You can however fit one additional module per Command Processor I you have fitted.
- Warfare links can be broken down into 5 different types each having an asociated skill and ship:
- Armored. These modules buff armour tanking they are affected by the Armored warfare specialist skill. The Damnation is best used with these modules.
- Information. These modules buff targeting and EW they are affected by the Information warfare specialist skill. The EOS is best used with these modules.
- Siege. These modules buff shield tanking they are affected by the Siege warfare specialist skill. The Vulture is best used with these modules.
- Skirmish. These modules buff Tackling they are affected by the Skirmish warfare specialist skill. The Claymore is best used with these modules.
- Mining. These modules buff mining they are affected by the Mining Director skill. The both Capital industrial ships are best used with these modules.
- The formula for working out the % buff you will receive from a module is: Skill bonus X Ship bonus X Implant bonus.
- Command Bonus of Module can be found in the description X Warfare specialist skill level i.e. Skirmish warfare specialist for a skirmish module X (( Warfare link specialist skill level X 0.1) +1 )
- A Command ships or Capital industrial ships give additional bonuses to certain warfare link types. If you are using the right module type for the ship then use this calculation if not just ignore it: (Ship skill level i.e. command ships for a Command ship X 0.03 0.05 for a Rorqual) + 1)
- Additionaly a Warfare mindlink can be pluged into Implant slot 10 giving a buff to a perticular warfare link type. If you have one then multiply by 1.5 if not just ignore it.
