Yes, but the problem is the Gallente bonus is complete trash. Active tanks suck in PvP, so it's a worthless bonus. You might as well give the Gallente BCs a bonus to civilian hybrid turret damage, it would be about as useful.
Active Tanks are trash for most forms of PvP, not all.

Originally by: SoulOfAnnihilation Merin Ryskin, Active tanking on a blaster/AC/Pulse/Assault ship is imo, the best setup you can do. the resistances over straight HP i'd take anyday. the Plates slow you down, and its already hard enough to move without them in most close range ships.
Yuri, I see your logic, but imo, its wrong. Ships are ment to be versitile, not only flown ONE single way. Part of the game.
I think the bounus's is fine, it keeps its ability to Tank like a beast (some people like that), and keep the ability to Dish out a boat load of dps. Some perfer one other the other. Don't be like every one else.
i wouldnt say this is "ship based", more Situation based, in most cases a passive or HP buffer tank is preferable despite the lack of speed. (ship bonuses aside).
however for the men amongst us that do LOWsec PvP and more appropriatly Pirating some form of active tank is essential. Its all situational and dependant on the type of PvP that you intend to do, thats why sweeping statements from "experts" about whats right and wrong in PvP always make me /roll my eyes.

Ex-Pirate. Pirated for about... 2 years... Pirating... does infact require a Hardener set. Resistances over Buffer every time. You don't exactly have every chance possibleto go dock and repair.
Win Post.
