Repair Bays and Phase Missile Q's

from Sins Forums

Why do TEC get repair bays that are 267% better than Advent or Vasari repair bays? 40 hull per second? Thats astounding! I can understand why Vasari bays might be gimped (Repair Cloud ability from the carrier = mobile repair bay for everthing in range) but AFAIK the Advent really get shafted here.

 

When a phase missile phases, it not only ignores shield mitigation and shields but does it also ignore armor?

Because TEC are generally weaker on shields, so they get better repair abilities. The Advent get some very good shield management and have better shields in general, so they get weaker repair ;)

I don't believe it ignores armor.

I thought Advent Repair Bays restored 30 hull/s... still twice as effective as Vasari ones.

Just take note that the TEC's repair bay begins with 20 hull/s, and must be upgraded twice to reach 40 hull/s (each upgrade increases the repair rate by 10 hull/s). Repair bay itself is Tier 1 Military, upgrades are both Tier 2 and necessary for the Hoshiko.

Technically, Advent have the best repair bay before additional research.
