Capacitance is a Warframe Augment Mod for 
Volt that converts a percentage of damage dealt by 
Discharge into shields, split between himself and allies.
Stats[]
| Rank | Shield Bonus | Cost |

| 1 | 2% | 7 |
| 2 | 2.5% | 8 |
| 3 | 3% | 9 |
Acquisition[]
- This mod can be acquired by attaining the rank of Maxim under the Arbiters of Hexis, or the rank of Exalted under the Red Veil, and spending
25,000 to purchase.
Notes[]
- Can create Overshields.
- Affected allies includes all Warframes, Companions, Eidolon Lures, summoned allied units such as Specters, allied Invasion units, Hostages, Kavor Defectors, Sortie and Arbitrations Defense Operatives, and Defense Objects.
- On Defense Objects, their shield gain is capped at 250, and do not gain overshields.
- Shield bonus is affected by Ability Strength, but the amount per second also seems to be an average instead of a static number, and can fluctuate for each tick dealt on enemies even if the damage remains the same.
- This augment works best the more enemies there are in a group, due to how Discharge works, zapping each other and increasing the amount of bulk shield obtained within the first moments of the cast.
Tips[]
Bugs[]
- Allies may not gain shields often even when in the casting radius, for unknown reasons.
