The Advanced Shield Capacitor is a suit modification available to all non-MAX classes. It is fully unlocked by default for the Light Assault, and the Engineer starts with rank 1 unlocked, though other classes will have to unlock it as normal.
Advanced Shield Capacitor reduces the time taken for a damaged or depleted personal shield to recharge considerably, however it will not affect the delay before the recharge begins.
The first rank of Advanced Shield Capacitor will lowering the recharge time from 6 seconds to 4 seconds, with each rank increasing the speed by a further 0.25 seconds, up until a maximum decrease to 3 seconds at rank 5.
