I saw the following on another thread and my jaw hit the floor:

(BTW, what is the purpose of a science vessel with a secondary array and yet no space on the board to put the extra array? :-D Just asking.)?

:eek:

While I'm sure someone else has thought of this earlier, I'm very surprised this hasn't been addressed yet. Every one of those ships has a second deflector, so, we should be able to equip two deflectors in our equipment layout.

How difficult would it be Cryptic/PWE to add another deflector slot to science ship's set up and have the benefits of both be additive?

Probably not happen, you could have Science ships packing 1 set with the 2-part borg set from the deflector and console or 2 2-part sets with shield/deflector and engine/deflector.

the second deflector is used by the science ships inbuilt sensor buff and may also be used to help target the inbuilt "target shields/weapons/aux/engine" skills. *cough*
