Talk:Geth Shield Boost

The (lack of a) bonus from the Geth Shield Strength research
An edit not too long ago purported that this power gains strength from the Geth Shield Strength upgrade. I reverted it, since I was pretty sure that was false. I've now confirmed my suspicions. The test went like this: So there it is. Unfortunately, the Geth Shield Strength upgrade just affects Legion. -- Dammej ( talk ) 23:20, July 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Vanguard with all Damage Protection upgrades and no shield-boosting armor has 375 shields.
 * All 5 damage protection upgrades give a boost of 50%, meaning that normally, max shields are 250 (375/1.5 = 250).
 * Grab Geth Shield Boost from Advanced Training, upgrade all the way to "Heavy" version (100% shield boost).
 * Land on planet, look at squad screen for shield statistics (reads 375)
 * Activate Geth Shield Boost and look at shield stat again (reads 625)
 * 625-375 = 250, or an extra 100% of shields. If the Geth Shield Strength upgrades affected Geth Shield Boost, this number would have been higher. It was not, meaning that Geth Shield Strength does not affect Geth Shield Boost.
