Logbook Entry
Sure, the battery cost for this protective device is significant, but in retrospect it was so obvious that the projection and then suspension of semimagnetized plasma ions in a rapidly oscillating spinor field would provide a substantial physical safeguard. Like, duh.
Crafting
Properties
Use
Upon activation this device will form a shield around the car that will remain active until deactivated. It uses energy only upon activation and whenever absorbing a hit (0.25kW per hit), meaning it has no passive power drain unlike e.g. the Ion Shield. The shield protects against anomalies that attach to the car such as Abductors and Bunnies, and absorbs about 50% of physical damage (impact, piercing, and explosion), however it does not protect against acid, electricity, or radiation damage. Activating two LIM Shields at once improves this damage reduction to 90%.
The passive protection range against attaching anomalies is slightly smaller than that of the LIMpulse emitter, so Bunnies might still stick to roof attachments. Toggling the shield however has a similar effect to that of the LIMpulse emitter and can knock such bunnies off the roof.
Unlike most other blueprints, which are obtained through the Fabrication Station, the blueprint for this device is acquired via plot progression in the mission The Deep Zone Crossing.
