Gear/Blue Shield Particle Field Damper

=Description=

ID: Gear_BlueShield

Manufacturer: Deadly Sins

the Federated Commonwealth started development of the Blue Shield Particle Field Damper (PFD), a defensive system that would reduce damage from Energy Weapons. While the field damper did shield the equipped unit from Weapons fire, it was also notoriously unreliable in ground units. After roughly a minute of operation, the dust and other miscellaneous debris it sucked in began to adversely affect the operation of the damper, eventually resulting in shutdown of the system. =Attributes=
