The amount of charge is dependent on the belt's [[quality]], with the default being 110 points. This charge is depleted at a rate of 3.3 charge per 1 point of damage from attacks. If an attack would be sufficient to completely deplete the shield's charge, then the rest of its damage is negated, and the shield temporarily broken. The shield does not prevent pawns from being set on fire{{Check Tag|Fact Check|Flame damage only ignites pawns if they take damage - does a shield prevent this ignition?}}, explosions from detonating, or being staggered from weapons with sufficient [[stopping power]]. |
Shield belts constantly recharge at a rate dependent on their quality, so long as they are not broken. However, once a shield's charge is completely expended, the shield will break and the belt will be temporarily disabled. Similarly, upon being hit by an [[EMP]] from any source they instantly lose all power and the shield will break. In either case, it takes {{Ticks|3200}} after breaking before it begins to recharge again. They will recharge starting from 20 points, meaning they can be easily broken once again. | Shield belts constantly recharge at a rate dependent on their quality, so long as they are not broken.
