I have a question regarding this item.

From EveMon it has:
"caldariNavyBonusMultiplier 1.02"

Was this something that once effected the CNR for even better performance than using Estamellte BCU? Or was it just never used?

I just think it would have been very fitting if running 3x Caldari Navy BCU on a CNR gave it a slightly better bonus than running 3x DG BCU.

There used to be an idea that it would be actually beneficiable to get only racial components to your racial ship (Caldari Navy BCU on a Caldari Navy Hookbill for example) but it got ditched. CCP never cleans their database so there's a lot of leftover data in it. Another good example is four different types of propulsion which were originally meant for chance-based racial warp scrambling.

Thanks Ather!

Saves me trying to hunt down the no-longer available CN bcu's. Someone was trying to sell one for 50m above the price of a DG so I was hoping it had some justification. I am not ready to pay premium for a pure collector item value yet!

Having a bonus for using same-faction equipment (read: highly compatable hard/softwar) would be awesome.

Just think how much more uber an Estamel-fitted Rattlesnake would be.Very Happy

Or maybe a Nighthawk fitted with specific T2 launchers made by the same corp.

There would be so many posibilities for this. Inferior equipment could actually be worth using!Shocked

Originally there was afaik supposed to be also special set bonus for the following item groups: Beta Reactor Control, Local Hull Conversion, Alpha Hull Mod, Beta Hull Mod, Mark I Modified SS, Marked Modified SS(possibly metagroup of previous?), Partial Hull Conversion, Type-D/E Altered SS and so on and so forth. The entire set system was ditched and instead all those items are now basically the EVE equivalent of Boots of Running +3 or whatever.

Dayumn. Well I gotta say it would be pretty awesome to have all that stuff around.

Would love to see what they could do with different races equipment.
