Sounds right to me based on IF's post too. At first I too though "what's the use of that" but I guess it would be used for a powerful weapon that just happens to suck at penetrating shields. I gather that essentialy with such a weapon the enemy would in effect have 4x normal shield strength.

I was only expanding on Gandalph's post to show what happens when a shot hits both shields and non-shields.

Are you playing with gold patch 2 (1.78) or patch 3 (1.84)? In 1.78, those types of damage are broken and do not work correctly. This was fixed for 1.84.

What defenses does the target ship have?
