Post Zen of Shield & Zen of Energy
Change them to be percentage based so they are remotely useful.

That'd be useless for my class, then.

Yeah, I agree with Churchy.

If you have a percentage based skill it will only help (or be more potent) for high bank classes, whereas a block stat will be more useful for low-bank classes, IE - Seer.

It's an ill-convieced skill in my opinion.

Could have them add to the base bank value? So the increase is affected by augmenters, inbuilts and skills (of course the amount/skill would have to be reduced to compensate)

Or we could have two skills per zen. One for percentage boost, the other for a solid unit.

Derp?

I would love this, if they were mutually exclusive.

So you could only get one.

Have the solid unit tagged on as capacitor +shield/energy.

Can you imagine what would happen if a zerk suddenly had an extra 3000 shields on a Ghoul? 25k base bank shield!

This is the best idea here.

I recall this being suggested in the past and Jeff said no because of the reasons of use with low bank setups and general mechanics.

He said he weren't against the idea of increasing the bonus a little bit.

Personally I have to agree that two separate Zens are an interesting idea.

Let's get it put ingame. There is no reason why it should not be.

keep it static, but a boost would be good (as BD said)

Their effect should stay the same - but agreed on the boost, they've been the same since before the rebalance :roll:.
