I can see a mass driver having double or triple the penetrative value of a normal round, but not bypass shields completely. If you do that, you have any size mass drive weapons completely bypassing capital shields, that seems horribly unbalanced.
Make it double or triple the penetrative value...
It depends on the grade and class of the shield. In a nutshell, a Civilian grade, class C shield will slow the ballistic round so it only does around 60% damage. Now a Competition grade, Class A shield will slow the ballistic round down so it only does 10% damage, that sort of thing.
I am...
I know, the Tana is finally viable.
I use a full load out of Neutron Repeaters, slightly higher overall DPS than the Gatlings, and no worries about running out of ammo or having to reload. Not that this is a real issue.
Of course it lacks the 10% chance of shield penetration, but I can live...

Ah, the memories. These inspired me to join the Rock Raiders. Well, that and a copious amount beer.
Think that was around the time I got those Magic Bullet Blenders and the Snuggies.
There is a moral here...Never drink and shop online, unless of course it is for more ships.
Noticed something pretty impressive. When you wear your Expo suit out in a blizzard on MT, it cakes up with snow. Go back inside your Rover, and after a few minutes, the snow slowly melts off. THAT is attention to detail.
Thanks for asking Chief!
We got the "Stay at home" order, so been working from home, but still have to visit the office to pick up prints and such.
I am one of the "Essentials" so I am still out in the field on occasion. Luckily, I don't normally do a lot of customer work, so this has not...
For the Demeco, the Underbarrel would be a laser pointer or a light.
For the Barrel, it would be a Stabilizer or a Flash Hider. Can't suppress a machine gun, under sustained fire either the pressure would blow it up if ballistic, or the heat of a laser/plasma discharge would melt it for an...
