solar shielding is lame haha, especially since tactically beams are a threat to shield flux, not armor (if they are freely beaming your armor your already doomed!)
unless beam damage resistance stacks with armor ablation? is the beam damage resistance calculated before or after armor check? is it that 100 armor counts at 110 against beams? Or is it that 100 beam dps counts as 90 damage against 100 beam protected armor?
how does armor damage reduction work in terms of beam, is it a flat reduction that eventually scales down as the armor is whittled away, so that a beam only does full damage against exposed hull? Hmmmm...
also what was the maximum damage reduction that armor gives again, is it 80% (20% gets through?)
