If the balance team decides that this is something we want, a unique icon for the upgrade is going to be needed.

Closing this Pr for now as we need to see how the new Implementation of the cheaper shield works out first

@Hdt80bro Would you be available to make an icon for this upgrade?

I think you're referring to @Fichom , and not hdt80bro. But are these changes approved by the balance team? If so, it is best if @Tagada14 approves the pull request.

The response from the members who replied hasn't been bad on average, so I decided to ask.

On an unrelated note, it would be nice to have some sort of fallback or placeholder for when an upgrade icon is not present. Right now it's a yellow box and I assume mods can have the same problem too.

In case there is still interest in these changes, feel free to reopen this. A significant amount of feedback has already been incorporated, so the current numbers should serve as a solid baseline.
