Visual Effect
People with the full five pilot points in this skill will have a bubble shimmering around their ship when someone locks onto them as well when their shield regenerates. You will also be able to hear the bubble noise when someone locks onto you. Many people leave this skill at 4 pp because the noise from the bubble can become pretty annoying.
