Skill Shield

[Mech Technology]


A mech with a Skill Shield will take less damage from that Skill attacks. 

Available Skill Shields are:
  • Fork Shield: A Mech with a Fork Shield will take less damage from Forked attacks. For example, if a mech with Wide Fork Shield 80% would have taken 100 points of Fork damage (because the mech next to it got hit for 100 damage) the Mech will take 80 less damage than it would have.
  • Splash Shield: A Mech with a Splash Shield will take less damage from splashed damage. For example, if a mech with Splash Shield 50% would have taken 100 points of Splash damage (because the mech next to it got hit for 100 damage) the Mech will take 50 less damage than it would have.
  • Trample Shield: If a Mech with Trample Shield 80% would have taken 10 points of Trample damage, that Mech will take 8 less damage than it would have, for a total of 2 damage.
  • Wide Fork Shield: A Mech with a Wide Fork Shield will take less damage from Wide Forked attacks. For example, if a mech with Wide Fork Shield 80% would have taken 100 points of Fork damage (because the mech next to it got hit for 100 damage) the Mech will take 80 less damage than it would have. This shield only protects the equipped Mech, so in order that each Mech in the Wide Forked line got the Wide Fork damage reduced, each one will require to have this protective skill.

This skill can be acquired through:
  • Mech build skills-tree
  • Equipment
