Thanks for the response, and please don't take this the wrong way but, that infomation is pretty useless. It's just describing the structure of the chamber tree and written description of the branches. I was more looking for exactly what happens when an alpha weapon hits a alpha resistant shield. Like the actual formulas for reduced damage, extra shield hp, or w.e it is. The tooltip just shows hotspot range and hotspot % it doesn't describe, in numbers, exactly what they do to your shields.
Also what exactly, in numbers, is an alpha weapon. I understand verbally that its a slow firing high damage weapon. But that changes a lot depending on ship size in this game, does that affect the shield resistance bonus? Is alpha just a certain threshold for damage period in the games eye, so for example a larger ship would classify its weapons as both alpha and fast firing because it has very large cannon cannon setup? Etc... theres a ton of questions here that I would need to have answered to have an informed choice on whether or not to use the alpha resistance chamber that seemingly is just not present. If I knew the formulas I could answer all the questions for myself but they aren't displayed in the tooltips.
