This force-field lasts for 6 hours, or until disabled or when the wearer fails the associated ability score saving throw. If successful, the wearer ignores the damage that would have been dealt on a hit. This force-field absorbs damage by allowing the wearer to make an ability score saving throw, using the highest modifier they have (by using their own ability modifier OR use it as a +3 bonus) with a DC equal to the attack roll + 10. As a Bonus Action, you can activate this device, creating a compact force-field that is only seen when it is hit. This item is a small handheld device, usually worn on the belt or put somewhere easily reached. I want to try to create some home rules that can be used for a sci-fi D&D 5e game for a common element, known as the Personal Shield Generator. The Prismatic Shield Generator shows some green colour in addition to the blue effect when a shield is being hit, allowing other ships to visually identify the type of shield used.Sci-Fi games are cool.The only disadvantage in this case would be a slight decrease to jump-range due to the module's greater mass.Īnaconda running a PSG with shields activating
For traders, however, the Prismatic Shield generator might be a welcome upgrade since most freighters should be able to cope with the power draw, especially since a ship outfitted for trading usually reserves its largest internal compartments for Cargo Racks, which do not require power.
Multipurpose ships equipped for combat usually have less severe power management issues and thus the capability to use a Prismatic Shield Generator in combat, although other modules may have to be downgraded to accommodate it depending on the ship. However, the Prismatic Shield Generator comes with twice the mass, significantly more power-draw, a higher price, and loyalty unlock requirements through Powerplay, which makes it less convenient to purchase as well as more difficult to use efficiently on most combat ships. This represents a 15-20% difference in shield strength between a Prismatic Shield Generator and a standard Shield Generator of the same class and rating.
The Prismatic Shield Generator's shield strength is almost equal to the shield strength of a standard Shield Generator that is one class higher.
