After more than 500 hours of gameplay, I've realized I misunderstood how shield combinations worked.

Previously, I thought shield combinations worked as follows:

1. Shield capacity was simply added together across all shields.
2. Shield recharge time was simply added together across all shields.
3. The shield recharge time was always the recharge time of the shield with the longest delay.

However, with the new 9.0 interface, I've recently discovered that the shield recharge delay is the average of all shield recharge delays.

Example: Long Split Mk2 x 2 (3s) + Long Split Argon Mk2 x 1 (15s) = (3x2+15)/3 = 21/3 = 7s delay.

Could you recommend some interesting shield combinations, whether for fighters, medium or large traders, or destroyers and Why you recommend that combination?
