Notes[ | ]
- The numbers given above are based on 0 points in the Shield Restoration
- The heal provided by Emergency Power to Shields depends heavily on three factors.
- Ability Rank
- Shield Restoration
- Starship Tier
- Fractional points in skills, which do not show in the Star Trek Online interface, will affect the formula below. This may cause the formula to be lower than the value displayed in the game. Items such as Threat-Scaling Science Consoles will contribute to this.
- The damage reduction buff is based exclusively off of the ability rank. No skills or abilities affect this buff, but the buff does stack with other damage reduction buffs, items and skills.
- Formula for Instant Heal
- Buff = ((Ship Tier + 1) / 2) * ((Ability Rank + 2) / 3) * ((Skill / 200) + 1) * 300
- This ability received a buff alongside a larger Pilot specialization update, with the February 9, 2023 update.
- Now also grants Immunity to Shield Drain when your Shields are reduced to 20/35/50% total Capacity
