Thats alright, everytime I get one, its OP for about 3 minutes, then something one hits it and back to normal.

I survived the battle in the screenshot, but it was close.  Ended up with the last Slayer shooting me through the walls while the engineers kept rebuilding them so I couldn't see to shoot back, and all my propulsion was destroyed, so my Move was 8%.

Turns  out turning on full Calc only shows the math for your shots, not the enemies.

Anyway, I managed to capture a shot mid battle where the Maneuvering Thrusters get destroyed mid volley.

See included screen shot.  First enemy KE Pen shot hits (10% chance), destroys the Thrusters, second KE Pen shot in volley hits (73% chance).

QED!

Glad you're enjoying it! It is a very useful item, but the chance to be hit has a large number of factors playing into it, some that you may not have noticed while comparing the difference. See this post for more. (Also, specific to thrusters: Notice that if you're flying or hovering the chance is doubled!)

Is there a way I can test without exposing myself to death?  I"m doing very well at the moment and don't want to die, but literally every attack is listed as 10% hit chance (on me).  During one fire fight with a bunch of bots, I lost the Maneuvering Thrusters and the too hits had jumped from always 10% to 60-70%. Granted I had been staying still and my heat might have been a factor, but hard to image what could cause a 50-60% to hit change.

Such an awesome game! 

Anyway, wondering if this item is overpowered?  It says 6% dodge chance.  However, with it installed all enemy hit chance is 10%. Removing it and the same shots are 60-70% to hit.

Makes it a must have item.  I also cried when it got destroyed:-)
