Notes[]
Damage bonus is additive to mods like  Pressure Point.
Damage bonus is shown in the buff UI.
Damage bonus is given by the following equation:         Damage Bonus  =  30  %  ⋅  ⌊   Current Shields 200   ⌋  + 15  %  ⋅  ⌊   Current Overshields 200   ⌋        {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}{\text{Damage Bonus}}=\,30{\%}\cdot \left\lfloor {\frac {\text{Current Shields}}{200}}\right\rfloor +15{\%}\cdot \left\lfloor {\frac {\text{Current Overshields}}{200}}\right\rfloor \end{aligned}}} 

For example, a frame with 700 shields and 300 overshields give a
30% * floor (700/200) + 15% * floor (300/200) = 105% damage bonus. Tips[]
This arcane goes exceptionally well on  Hildryn, whose high shields can allow Retaliation to get to max with ease, provided she is fitted with the proper shield boosting mods.
