Advanced Fer'Jai Frigates are Fail

Okay I tested both Advanced Fer'Jai Frigates and other Advanced Fighters KDF side with my Parser (STOICS (don't complain about the parser or non-Advanced Fer'Jei Frigates, I have tested STOICS multiple times on different Elite STFs but Fer'Jei Frigates have at least half the dmg as any other carrier pets (that attacks)(and in my testing other pets were 4x better (possible more for B'Rel pets))). I just recently bought a Kar'Fi (about 2 months ago (just before season 6) and not only did I get no Fleet Kar'Fi but a polarize hull bug and now this. I see a lot of Kar'Fi's around (markerting perspective talking (so its not a waste to buff the Kar'Fi pets and Polarise hull bug (those are critical Fleet Kar'Fi is not really on the top of the list but I and others still want it a lot)) and I love them but they are getting all these bugs and this is supposed to be a premium ship not a piece of junk. It's much better to go around in a bop or raptor since you pretty much die not that much more and you do a lot more dmg. This carrier in this state really is not that much better than the Vo'Quv since their BOPS do so much more dmg than my Fri'gates (which look awesome and I bought the Kar'Fi to get). Sorry about no paragraphs (and these lol:D) and any spelling errors (which there are two of).

Also I hope Season 7 will have all the changes promised If so EPIC, despite all the bad "stuff" said about Cryptic (now PWE since they are apprently worse) this is my fav game by quite a bit and I hate things like this ruining it. Also pls Cryptic fix the Flicker is Sector Space (it can't be hard you did it before). And thank you so much for fixing the Blue HUD for Klingons (although I don't know how I can say kindly it shouldn't have been broken in the first place).

Edit: With futher observation it is because Fer'Jai's arent facing there target maybe because i had them on escort mode should have them on attack. Will come back with results later.

    With them on attack mode, my experience of Fer'Jais is that they fly around really quickly in huge, wide circles and rarely have their target in front of them to attack it.

    Not a good pet, imo. I ended up just sticking to S'kuls.

    The Ferjai frigates do not have alpha strike firepower. They are support frigates that can do high damage.


    Ferjai drop mines. Big, high damage ones. Tricobalt. They have chroniton torpedoes to make the target slow down so the mines trigger and track. They can use high yield and rapid fire cannon.

    They use aceton beam to severely debuff your target's damage and put a radiation dot.

    In essence, these pets are to be used against bosses not against your run of the mill stf/mission NPCs.

    The Ferjai are deadly when you spec your carrier to support the Ferjai frigates. You need to have the Karfi carrier be able to drop a target's shields and slow it down.

    Try this:

    Equip the carrier with either a power drain build (so it slows target ship down + drops shields) or a beam subsystem targeting setup & chroniton torpedoes and be sure to have a tractor beam.


    The Ferjai will never out-dps Toduj's and even less the birds of prey pets but it will out-perform them against big targets due to their debuff+ tricobalt mine damage.

    Fer'Jei's mines don't do that much dmg im sure that other fighters still beat, I don't know about aceton beams effectivness though.

    The Tricobalt mines do better one-shot damage all day. DPS is much lower obviously because they can only drop one of them. Plus it has the Tricobalt proc, which assists with further crippling whatever they hit. As above, they're better against single, larger targets.
