just an example. still messing with fits.
however, 19k surv = 4k more. compared to 3.5k more diff shield, which isn’t always available.
can only get 7% more capacitor charge if you replace the multiphase with a voltage regulator.
and you can get more capacitor by replacing the shield mods with compact generators, but then lose a lot of surv.
1 compact = 1140 energy, <17k surv, 2 compact = 1450e, 14.5k surv. mk1s of course, but mk3s will put you up/down almost equivalent amounts.
so you’re trading 2.4k surv for 3k diff in case 1, and 4.5k surv for 6k diff in case 2.
not a really good trade… considering afterburners, energy absorbers, and damage can all deplete your energy.
and i could replace the tetroxide with catalyst, but ad extra 36m/s without afterburner, won’t really help you ;o
not to mention no protons on the prometheus, and less command actives to maintain, although flares can come in handy. none of it will help you if disabled.
and there just no way to get more energy on the dragonfly besides a energy recuperation system… which doesn’t work with diff shield active, because it only works for damage that hits your shields/hull… so it works when phase shield is inactive only.

there, how pathetic is that? and if you want energy recuperation, which doesn’t really make much sense any more then you need to replace a compact.
that’s actually 5k more diff shield, but 5.5k less surv… and only slightly more capacitor regen… like what, 10 points per second? haha 
also, why the hell am i using compacts on a shield-tanked fighter? :… compact is more for a hull-tanked inty fit…
this patch NEEDS a revert, bad.
