Simple question, The description says the shields are a % of the base Hp on the vehicle so meaning the more hp the vehicle has the more shields it gets. What Im wanting to know is what is the % of the Hp that is used for the shield?

Im not sure if they released the actual percentage the shield adds (if i am mistaken i would love to know the number too), but I am thinking it is probably somewhere close to 10%.

I've got no solid clue, however I would say it would be something like 50%-75%, somewheres around there. I know that at full shields my van usually lasts a couple about half again as long, so 50% seems logical to me.

I'm about 99.9% sure it's 50%.

50% seems way to high to me. I was judging based off my full shielded mosq. The shield usually only lasts 1 striker shot while it takes at least another 5 to take me down.

im sure they work differently for different vehicles. I do notice mossy sheilds are easier to drain than say... a van. Id say it allows 25% more armor because it takes 3-4 Pheonix shots to kill a mossy with sheilds its +1. And it takes roughly the same with a reaver however its more around 3 for a lib to take the sheilds down
