Any idea why don't we still have any?

I do hope gall's coming T3 desy would have it, but really wonder about frig size ship.

I might be wrong, but i could of sworn the enyo had a rep bonus at one point. Maybe it was removed because it was too strong with t2 resists + armor rep bonus?

Yes I believe that was the case before the MWD bonus was added, around the same time interceptors got nullified if I'm not mistaken.

But don't take my word on it.

To the OP, you realize that ships can be good at armor tanking without the bonus, and for the sake of balance a ship with that buff would need to be nerfed in other ways such that nothing would be gained? Try out the Amarr.

You are correct, enyo doesn't have it.

This!

Look at the vengeance. 4% bonus to all armor resistances and 5% bonus to ship capacitor recharge rate. This is even better then a rep bonus!

I don't see how an armor repair bonus is overpowered but an armor resist bonus is not.
