Sorry because this has been said a million times before but...
Time to get the Developers attention on this.
I see on the DEV blog that one of the ships that will be getting a 'refit" is the Neg'vhar.
Awesome, because this ship seriously could use an upgrade to make it the menacing powerhouse that it truly is in the Star Trek Universe.
However, if you are going to give this Tier 5 ship an upgrade.. I think it's high time that the Sovereign needs some love too.
The Sovy is flat out before the Odyssey, (And Galaxy X if you want to count that) the most powerful ship Starfleet has.. yet in game, if you have the money, you can easily outdo its power with the Excelsior R... which doesn't even make sense..
The Sovy seriously needs a refit.. Make the Neg a powerhouse but at the same time upgrade the Sovy to match it.
First of all.. it absolutely should have a Lt. Cmdr tactical.. (If it were me, I'd pretty much just switch the stats of the Excelsior R and Sovereign... but keep the Sovereign Crew, Hull, turn speed etc. ) Give the Excelsior an extra point in turn speed so it makes a difference, and it can keep its new transwarp console with the buffs. That's fine.
Any ideas on what the Sovy Refit should get as a console? In addition to the Lt. Cmdr BO and 3 Tactical slots that is??
Torpedo Fire Control: A passive -2s recharge timer on projectile weapons, that upgrades THY and Spread by one tier?
A draw fire type ability in space, that generates more threat, or draws enemy fire onto the sovereign.
There ya go..
See that's what I'm talking about.. That is a good console that is pretty awesome and not even remotely OP. This coupled with a Lt Cmdr Tactical BO. Plus 3 tactical consoles could make this ship a beast when using quantum torpedoes..

I like this idea.
