N7 Destroyer.

Full fitness (health and shields all the way).
Hawk Missile Launcher: shield penalty reduction selected on rank 4.
Cyclonic modulator 4.

How much shields do I have?

How much shields would I have if I were to go with an adrenaline module instead of a cyclonic modulator?

Thanks.

With the penalty reduction, having Hawk Missile Launcher on takes off exactly 100 shields regardless of everything else you have.

That evolution is a must for him. With that evo and cyclonic modulator IV HML basically has no penalty at all.

Wow, 100 shields? That's amazing, I never realised it was so low. That's basically nothing at all. Thank you Cyonan.

Without a Cyclonic IV and no Devastator Mode your looking at a flat 1550 shields. With Devastator Mode your up to 1950. With Devastator Mode and a Cyclonic IV your looking at 3450 shields.

Devastator mode does not give shields...

6A gives +40% base shields.
But hardly anyone takes it, because the 15% damage boost is usually better.

DM evo 6a gives you 40% more shields. That's 400.

Who needs extra damage?  I'd much rather be able to take one more round from a Marauder.  Besides, everyone knows the Destroyer is supposed to be played like a tank; let your squadmates deal the damage while you worry about staying alive.

While I do take the shields instead of the damage I do it for different reasons. I am using the PPR, Typhoon (high damage weapons to start in general) so who cares about the 15% damage when I can stay out there longer firing. More rounds down range means more damage.

IDK it's 400 shields rather have the damage output personally. If you kill quicker I think the damage is the better option if you struggle to stay up and stay alive the shields might be the better option I guess. I'd still argue for drill rounds and geth scanner if survivability is the issue.

Personally, I'd like to just flat out kill that Marauder before its got time to get me down to such low health.

I actually thought I was laying it on too thick, and edited just before posting to make it less sarcastic; I try not to be a full-throttle douche all the time, you know, for variety.   Mayhaps I went too far the other way.

Please refrain from posting such stupid comments in the future. You're making yourself look stupid. If you're jealous of my 50k N7, don't feel like you need to post stupid replies to proper topics.


N7 is completely meaningless, but I am jealous of the sweet, sweet rack in your avy.
