Would a significant defense penalty on the Talisman be a good idea?

A defense penalty would be nice for play balance, but it does not make sense that a blessed ship is easier to hit.

In my mod, I made it 10KT armor, so that you can take it out with the first non shield hit. Temporary blessing.

Otherwise, treat it as an improvement to Sensor III: Either Stackable + 20% or Nonstackable +85%. I think that this would make Religious still worth taking as you get a modifer no one else gets. Combine this with War and Death shrines and they will still be tough advesaries, but no longer untouchable.

This would take away my biggest complaint with the Talisman: Range does not matter, which makes it a +1000% to hit and at least a +50% to defense by hanging out a long range.
