The first thing you need to decide is whether or not you are going to build your ship to be a shield tank or an armor tank.
Eve echoes ships how to#
So that is an overview of your defense, but now let’s go over every defensive item in the game and how to use them to manipulate the stats of your ship to maximize its effectiveness.
This is of course an unrealistic example because nothing in the game gives you 50% resistance consistently, so here is a real example of something you might find in the game.Īnd then lastly the third reason is because EHP does not include healing which if the battle goes long enough can account for 10 times as many hit points as your entire EHP ranking. and then if you added another 50% resistance to the same damage type, it would only add 12.5% and so on and so forth. Then if you added another 50% resistance to the same damage type, it would only increase your resistance by 25% because it is only reducing the 50% that you had left. So for a simplified example, if your resistance was at 0 and you added something that gave 50% resistance, you would get 50% resistance. This is because all resistances are applied to damage separately. On that note, you will notice that adding resistances to your ship have a diminishing return. And since many times you only need to have high resistances in certain damage types, your ehp will not reflect your ship’s true strength. You will notice that while the Phantasm’s Shields have no natural resistance to em damage, they have a natural 50% resistance towards explosive damage meaning that those same hitpoints would be twice as effective in a fight against that damage type. The second reason is because the ehp does not factor in what type of damage you are taking. Meanwhile, those 6000 shield hit points are being used over and over and over again. So while it’s nice to have that structure buffer before dying, functionally you may never use those hit points ever. For example, this Phantasm which favors shield tanking, has a base 6666 hit points with its lowest resistance of 0% making the shield contribution to its ehp only 6666 while its structure’s contribution to it’s EHP totals at 7,448. The first reason is because functionally, most of your EHP doesn’t even matter. This breakdown is the key to understanding defense in this game and you will want to go back here and check this often to make sure you are building your ship correctly, but this number can also often be misleading for three reasons. If you click on these three dots and then ship attributes, you will see a breakdown showing that your EHP is just a calculation of all of your hit points multiplied by your lowest resistance for that category.
The first thing that you need to know about defense is a term called EHP which stands for effective hit points and is often also referred to as just defense. But understanding defense can be more complicated than you might think so in this video I’m going to tell you everything you need to know. The most important thing to understand in Eve Echoes combat, is how to set up the defense of your ship.
