Apparently armorsmiths do get a hidden bonus to armor repair skills.
I've been a master AS for months now, and just dropped all of AS to free up some points for the holo grind. (Yeah, I'll be re-mastering in a few weeks once I finish this silliness.)
Anyway, as a master using a 98% tool - out of the last 30 or so repairs I had done I destroyed 4 pieces, and had 3 moderate successes. Everything else was "Repaired with minor blemishes".
After having dropped AS, and using the exact same repair tools (did a fairly large factory run of them a few weeks ago) I repaired 20 pieces of armor last night without any AS boxes at all. This was because the general consensus is that anyone can repair armor with an equal chance depending on the quality of the tool, since AS apparently gets no bonuses to repair.
*WRONG* Out of 20 pieces of armor repaired, I destroyed 5 and all of the successes were moderate. I had not one single "Repaired with only minor blemishes" result. We've been getting our repair mods all along. Unless the most random freak rolls ever followed me a round last night.
Feel free to test this yourselves. But I ruined a lot of awfully good composite last night.

"Master armor-smith will receive a 37% Chance to repair over a non master AS and a 87% over a non AS"
Quite a big differance , If your not an AS dont repair your own armor ... and if you are an AS charge at least 3k per piece ... or you'll be swamped all day trading Armor back and forth and having to chit-chat with way to many people.
