Because hull repair modules are absolutely useless for tanking damage.
They're pretty much only good for repairing hull damage when you don't want to pay station repair fees or don't have access to a station (WH space, hostile null, or flying a supercap).

Large Hull Rep II: 120 hull / 24s = 5 hull per second.

Small Shield Booster II: 35 shield / 2s = 17.5 shield per second.

Nothing, and my Hull Tanking Elite certificate proves it.

CCP doesn't have anything against Hull Tanking...CCP has something against Real Men.





Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Real men hull tank in nano fitted battleships.

because honor tanking > hull tanking

Yeah, I'm getting into a golem soon and wanted to solo HQ incursion sites with it, but I don't like how my options are limited to just armor or shields with a bastion fit.

Well, if I can't hull tank I may just go back to my drake.

You're going to do HQ incursions in a DRAEK? Or are you going to hull tank in a drake? Or it is both?

Question: Why doesn't Bastion Mode provide a bonus to Hull Repair modules?

Answer: Because Hull tanking is already so strong, any further bonus would break the servers.
