Shield Recovery — core

Shield Recovery shortens the normal-shield recharge delay.

Status: Current. Availability: Source-defined; acquisition is build-dependent.

Evidence: statically inspected repository definitions. No new automated gameplay, Editor, network or human acceptance is claimed. See the evidence guide.

Identity: core:30 · Aliases: ShieldRecovery

Behaviour and interactions

Recharge delay is baseline divided by [1 + 0.10 × log2(1 + rank)]. This modifies the delay before normal recharge, not an overflow regeneration rate.

Tier: Uncommon · Categories: Survival

Restriction: Normal shield recharge only; no overshield.

Rank scaling from source

n = rank, q = rank − 1, l = log2(1 + rank), h = log2(rank), for rank ≥ 1. The excerpt below is copied as text, not executed. Primary/secondary meaning is defined in the resolver description and behaviour notes.

Acquisition ranks have no authored balance cap; integer/float representation and bounded runtime effect rules still apply. Spare Charge is ranked per selected normal active. Run upgrades survive stage travel and downing, and clear at final run end.
