Suggestion on best shield generator upgrade for my Python

Thales

I have finally made enough money to buy a 6A shield generator for my Python.
Now I obviously want to get engineer upgrades for it! The obvious question, before I start spending many hours searching for components:
Should I get grade 5 reinforced shield generators or thermal resistant?
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Just my opinion (and I could very well be wrong):

With a Python, which already has pretty good shields, I'd go for Reinforced on the generator and Resistance modified Boosters.

For a ship with weaker base shields (which means that the reinforcement bonus is going to be smaller), I'd use Thermally resistant.

Personally I have used reinforced shields on my Python (and modded a couple of boosters, one with resistance augmented and one with heavy duty). They perform fine and can take a fair bit of a hammering.

I choose thermal reinforced shields if I am modding bi-weave shields, as I don't want the longer regeneration times on those.

Just my personal preference. :)

You can get the base shield value easiest by looking at https://coriolis.io. Build your loadout and read the value.

On my Python I use bi-weaves with a thermal resistance mod, and shield boosters with resistance augmented mod. They are more than strong enough for most usage, unless you're a diehard CZ sort. I'm talking PVE here.
