Stealth and Cannon Relay

Quick question. Does anyone know if the Cannon Relay (The thing that doubles you energy capacity) actually extends/doubles the duration you can stay in stealth? As far as I remember in EL it didn't but it almost seems like in EM it does but I can't quite work it out for sure. If its like EL it would simply use a percentage of your energy so doubling it wouldn't change how long you have.

As far as I experienced the canon relay really only doubles the capacity of your laser weapons/particle canons. It doesn't affect the duration of your stealth device.

That's what I was thinking but couldn't quite tell for sure.

I did not notice the difference in the Stealth Generator activating longer in Mercenary than in Legends.
I'm not sure I have tried the StealthGenerator in Mercenary yet but I think I did long time ago....probably having another Yoda moment....

:P

It doesn't activate longer it actually lasts longer. It went from lasting around 2 minutes in EL to like 6 minutes or something in EM. Also in EL the amount of energy it used was based on a percentage of your energy so no matter how much energy you had you couldn't really extend your stealth duration. Also it seems to stop energy recharge so you can't seem to extend the duration by focusing all on energy.

I actually just put +5 Shields when I'm using it so I can get back into stealth quicker.
