Shield frequencies

[Captain Kwok]

I don't think this matters much anyway. You should be able to make your own damage types in SE:V, so assuming that you can make damage types that damage only particular components you can create this effect in game to some degree.

It will depends on how the system is set up...

The most likely one would be levels of "phased shield"-ness:

Ie, if your damage type is skipping-level-5 then it ignores shields of protection-level-5 or lower.

On the other hand, you could have a more generic system, where you have shield types A-Z.
Then you specify that damage type #1 skips shield types E, G, and H.
