Summary	0027075: Corrosive effect Penetrates Bubble Shields
Description	In my current game I ran into the issue that a single corrosive guardian can take out multiple force field generators with its death explosion. I was very surprised to see that the corrosive effect ignores shields and can just kill the super weak generator. This effectively makes it so that if 1 of these guardians ever gets close to a shield generator It is guaranteed to die. I feel like this is either an oversight or a serious balance issue as many planets become undefendable if attacked like that. I can understand it ignoring personal shielding as its niche but bubble shields should be immune considering their tiny health.

KDR_11k Apr 28, 2022 5:16 pm reporter ~0066533	Seems odd, after all fusion weapons don't go through bubble shields like they do through personal shields so I'd expect corrosion to work the same way. Specialized anti-bubble weapons just do bonus damage, never bypass it.
