Each ship then gets natural resistance bonuses to one or two damage types. For Empire faction ships, the larger bonus is to that faction's historical enemy's primary damage type; the smaller bonus, if it exists, is to the secondary damage type of the enemy. A ship's class (assault frigate, logistics cruiser, etc.) determines how large these bonuses are and how they are calculated. Pirate and other factions' ships will share one of the Empire faction's resist profiles. | Each ship then gets natural resistance bonuses to one or two damage types.
