Hey cmdrs


Does anybody know how much damage is converted to thermal with the incendiary MC`s?

I searched around two hours today but couldnt find any solid information. A guy on reddit said its 50/50 but a friend has said its 90%.

Thx in advice.
Fly safe cmdrs

It says damage is converted but isn't the damage also increased from making that special effect? How much damage is added and is all that added damage thermal?

It was not working as intended in the beginning, because it converted 20% to thermal but didnt subtract that 20% from kinetic. So effectively it was doing 120%, on top of any other mod. Now, the excess 20% is correctly subtracted from kinetic, as FD clearly stated, and is now a correct 80% kinetic and 20% thermal.

It wasnt bugged they just set it too strong in beginnig. It clearly said it added EXTRA DMG from day one.

the description from day one, stated that it CONVERTS a large portion of damage to thermal. But in reality, it didnt convert. Instead it added. Thats what they fixed, so now it actually converts, so that the sum is 100% and not 120%

Yes, they toned them down a bit, but the main problem was the wrong equation, resulting to 120% instead of 100%.

Anyway, what the OP needs to know is that imho they are still very effective against both shields and hull :)
