How long is the Corrosive Shell debuff applied for on-hit?

Also does it apply the debuff to all damage taken to that ship, or only your ships damage dealt, or only that particular weapon with the engineered mod's damage?
 
For how long? The icon lasts for five seconds, so I would imagine that the debuff lasts just as long.

The debuff definitely works for other weapons on your ship - it's especially noticeable when using (sub optimal) lasers on hulls where every bit of DPS counts. Does it apply to others' weapons as well? My guess is 'yes' but I'll defer to someone more knowledgeable. :)
 
Timer is usually around 6-8 seconds based on my experience
It definitely applies to all weapon damage that ship takes both from you and anyone else attacking. I don't believe it applies to ram/scenery damage but could be wrong.

It's exactly five seconds. It looks like it applies for every corrosive hit - and while effect does not stack, it can be prolonged. Example: Hit 1 gives you 5 seconds. You hit the target again 4 seconds later - and while 1st debuff wears off, the 2nd one is still active, thus giving you 9 seconds of debuff.

Debuff itself works for any hits - your weapons, your fighter's weapons and even NPC weapons.

Right so the time isn't accumulative and runs in parallel with only 1 debuff being applied regardless of the amount of weapons with the engineered mod, cheers.

You are right. Ram damage is absolute and unaffected by resistances in either direction. Corrosive is a resistance de-buff, so it wouldn't affect any form of absolute damage.
