Mostly all dropsuits have a base armor repair rate of 0.0 (except minmatar non-logistics). Dropsuits that are better suited to armor tanking could have a base higher armor repair rate.
This is an example of what it could be like:
Minmatar: 1
Caldari: 0
Armarr: 2
Gallente: 3 |

Gallente: 3 Dropsuit balancing is 1.4, and CCP would be stupid not to add this. Specially since it is one of the many things required to balance the two.
There is a slight chance that they decided not to do this, think of this, or even think it was something that this game didn't need. |

Having played both armor and shield a few armor regen a second is mostly just convenience, so lets make the base stats a little nicer.
Minmatar: 2
Caldari: 1 - (0 is just super painful, give them something)
Amarr: 4
Gallente: 5
This should reduce some of the pain in running rep less setups (for everyone), while helping out armor tanks a touch.
Yeah, giving caldari nothing was a little harsh. I revised the numbers a little. Also I don't think the passive repair rates should be as high as you suggested. |

Based on the concerns and points made I feel that nothing should be done to change the current armor repair rates for dropsuits; also since racial bonuses to modules like a reduced armor plate speed penalty for Gallente are planned, there isn't a need to give suits that are better suited for armor tanking, Gallente and Amarr, a base armor rep rate for the dropsuit. |

A they would still be able to add more armor and a little more more hp/s repair rate with just 1 module; anyway CCP can just rebalance reactive plates to make them a little more worth it. |

I updated this thread with stats for how it would work with light and heavy frames. |
