The shieldbuster MAG is the only thing that has it. So what exactly does the shield# attribute do?

It seems like it will increase the amount of damage inflicted to shields. Very interesting.

probably same % as in WMD or mining I would assume...
Shield7 probably insta-kills shields...

I wonder how shieldbuster mags, if they had real range, would work against the iocrym...

I tried shields7 and it wasn't insta-kill. If it is the same as mining and WMD then shields7=100% and I would assume that means that if a weapon did 10 damage normally it would do 20 to shields. So the shield mags should do an average of 26 damage to a shield per hit against anything level 4 or less.
