 {{quote|Strengthens the active shield if powered. Multiple boosters stack in effectiveness.|In-Game Description}}
+The '''Shield Booster''' is a utility module that is used to increase the strength of a ship's shields.
-'''Shield Booster''' are used to increase the integrity of a ship's shields, but also increases the time it takes to replenish the shields. Equipping multiple Shield Boosters will see their shield multipliers stack additively. For example, two 0A Shield Boosters will combined provide a total multiplier of 1.4 to shield strength.
+==Usage==
+The Shield Booster increases shield strength by a given percentage of the base shield automatically and continuously once installed. It will continue functioning as long as it is powered and unbroken. Note that the Shield Booster is not a substitute for a [[Shield Generator]], and will provide no benefit if it is installed on a ship that does not already have an active Shield Generator. If multiple Shield Boosters are installed, the boost effect stacks additively.

 ==Notes==
-* Placed in a Utility Mount.
+* The Shield Booster was added in the [[Wings|Wings Update]] (1.2) on March 10, 2015.
+* The ''[[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]]'' 2.3 update was planned to include diminishing returns for stacking Shield Boosters, but these changes were rolled back shortly before release and never implemented.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/2-3-shield-booster-and-ship-armour-changes-feedback-thread-pt-3.340389/ Frontier Forums: 2.3 Shield Booster and Ship Armour Changes Feedback Thread Pt. 3]</ref> As seen in the 2.3 beta, the changes would have reduced the effectiveness of Shield Booster stacking after a cumulative 80% boost, with a hard cap at 150%.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/shield-booster-and-ship-armour-changes-feedback-thread.332706/ Frontier Forums: Shield Booster and ship armour changes feedback thread]</ref>
