Shield pack
From Tribes2Wiki
The Shield Pack is a pack that allows players to protect themselves from attack. When active, damage to the player drains energy instead of health. If an attack cannot be fully shielded by the player's energy, it will burn through the remaining energy and apply the rest of the damage to health.
Blasters will cut through the shield effect and deal damage against a target's health without affecting their energy levels.

| Base | Base++ | Classic | Version2 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Energy Drain | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 |
| Energy/Damage (Light) | 75.0 | 75.0 | 75.0 | 75.0 |
| Energy/Damage (Medium) | 75.0 | 75.0 | 75.0 | 68.0 |
| Energy/Damage (Heavy) | 75.0 | 75.0 | 54.0 | 75.0 |
In addition to shielding damage, an active shield pack forces attacks to ignore all damage multipliers when applied against drained energy. This allows players to survive attacks that have excessive multipliers such as a Satchel charge. Note that a player that burns through his shield energy in an attack will have the remaining damage applied to his health with all applicable multipliers intact.
