Signature Reduction not working?


Recommended Posts

TS L125. 200% Trifid L8 engine (60% less radar footprint). Base is 0.8k.  Fitted, the sig is 0.5

 

Add a vendor Pleiades L7 reactor - supposedly Reduce Ship Signature (activated) 25% less radar footprint.  Activate - but the result is still 0.5. 

 

Am I missing something or is this broken?

What's your ship's overall signature?   A Terran Scout's base signature (signature of the ship not counting the installed engine) is 2.5K.  If you're using a Mercurius/Halley/Trifid engine and your signature is lower than 2.5K it's working.  Make sure you check your other equipment and make sure you don't have anything with the increase ship signature debuff.  

 

These three engines, in terms of reduced signature, actually work better for Terrans than they do for Jenquai, due to the Jenquai's lower base signature of 0.5K and the reduction being percentage based.

 

The buff from the Peliades reactor should stack with the buff from the Mercurius/Halley/Trifid.

TS Base Signature is 2.5K

 

Trifid Base Signature: 0.8K

 

Total 3.2K, 60% less radar footprint should be 1,28 ~ 1.3K 

 

There is something wrong with your calculation or there are other items effecting it.

 

Currently my TS using L9 Trifid with 65% reduction 

 

2.5K + 0.9K (L9) = 3.4K * 35% = 1,19 ~ 1.2K (and 1.2K is correct)

 

There is no way your signature as a TS drop to 0.5 with just Trifid.
