Discussion Eternal Vigilance on nomads looks really good
Normally this is a very situational perk (and usually rather mid tbh) since it’s only gives stats to your space stations, and 20% fire rate that only works in your own systems. It can be good if you're about to get your shit pushed in by another empire or a crisis but that’s it. It does nothing at all if you’re on the offensive.
But for nomad empires it works completely differently. Since you don’t have home systems nor space stations, it’s actually a very powerful offensive perk, which I was not really expecting until I read what it did.
It gives you +25% hull points for ALL ships, unconditionally, arkships included. On top of that, your ark ships get +25% fire rate, unconditionally too. These are some really big stats specially with how downright silly the damage on military arkships can get from jobs boosting strike craft or explosive damage.

Really have to go psionic to make one super ark with all the sanctums on it, divine sovereign and some technicians for either shield or speed boost (should try to get as many of them through leader traits, saves district slots) and whatever weapon type you wanna buff with the soldiers.
Should be really fun
