Well consider that the only *real* point of losing out is when comparing to the Super Latanium and when under attack from Sappers.

Super Latanium is too costly to use anyway so we can ignore that one.

Sappers will tear apart your sheilds anyway and Sapper tends to be used with those missiles. I'd sooner take regen sheilds and hope they last long enough to avoid the double damage against missiles.


Exception to this....

AR - sure the energy tech you get will generally mean your sheilds are better than your armour - so it's a definate bonus... but your precious starbases are less well defended... bit of a bad thing.


I'd sooner take regen sheilds. Mainly because I like beamers and as such I need to keep the weight down and the speed up in order to close down missile/torp ships ASAP.
