Hello and welcome
Streat into it.... i did tons of testing tripling my results and heres inprove list and reson...
Trico - Need massive re-amp as 60% feds use them and do just as same damage as a shuttle
Most torps - Need massive re-amp as thay do 1/2 the damage as a beam array with buff to the torp not the array....
Cannons - In new update dual heavy cannons became terrble! exsactly the same as beam bank... so i swiched to beam bank for the bigger fireing arc
Turning - Carrier turning is worse than before... i use to be able to tern quickly.... now takes 5 years to tern with Omega + Aux to internal dampners + Full aux and engine power + Evasive maneuvers..... my carrier is now useless vs the borg...
Lag - Resently i been getting TONS of lag with STO... NOT MY CONNECTION i dont know how meny times i have to state its not my connection... so i went round 5 of my freinds house to test theres and same thing! im sad but it has to be stated!
Borg Gates - The gates can instanly kill you with NO damage logs at all to say "Torp did _______"
Along with this gate can only target you from the top.... sit 9k away from the top and 3k away from the bottem and you can shoot it with out being fired at
Infected Ground OP - Inpossble to do.... with the ammount of fed kids in STF thease days you cant do it....
Kinetic weapons - For a federation bat'leth i do 71 dps for kdf (EXACTLY the same stuff) 56dps.....
Partical Effect! Despretly need a setting to lower partical effect... as if you look at a cube with Plasma/radation/ both types of warp plasma dot STO freezes... and you do low dps
Fire All Keybinds some of them are broken and do not fire!
Finally!
Exchange - need a better search as i look for KDF doff-boff and all i see is fed.....
Hope this helps any one who dislikes it clearly has not! put any cold hard research into it, as me + 4 feds 2 kdf not naming any one have tested the same.... we all got same results so we can't be wrong....
Lastly thanks to the 6 who help test this stuff And the 20+ people who sat there and taken my cannons to there side shields testing them....

Tricobalts are fine as they are. You need to have Subspace Decompiler skills to make the tricobalts truly shine.
Torpedoes do 50% damage to shields. They are good against no-shield targets like ship hulls and structures. Beam arrays do equal damage to shields and hull.
"Cannons - In new update dual heavy cannons became terrble! exsactly the same as beam bank... so i swiched to beam bank for the bigger fireing arc"
Nothing changed with dual heavy cannons. Check your power settings.
"Turning - Carrier turning is worse than before... i use to be able to tern quickly.... now takes 5 years to tern with Omega + Aux to internal dampners + Full aux and engine power + Evasive maneuvers..... my carrier is now useless vs the borg..."
The only carrier that has ever turned well is the Armitage. All other carriers are super slow to turn. Learn to play the carrier and you will realize turning is the least of things you need.
"Lag - Resently i been getting TONS of lag with STO... NOT MY CONNECTION i dont know how meny times i have to state its not my connection... so i went round 5 of my freinds house to test theres and same thing! im sad but it has to be stated!"
I agree. Ever since season 6 there has been a big increase in server-side lag and disconnects.
"Borg Gates - The gates can instanly kill you with NO damage logs at all to say "Torp did _______" "
Not only borg gates but ANY borg. This is an old bug that was fixed in season 5 but somehow came back in season 6.
"Along with this gate can only target you from the top.... sit 9k away from the top and 3k away from the bottem and you can shoot it with out being fired at"
Nobody said the borg were the best at designing installations
"Infected Ground OP - Inpossble to do.... with the ammount of fed kids in STF thease days you cant do it...."
It is doable with a group that knows what they are doing. pick up groups are notorious for not knowing what they are doing.
"Kinetic weapons - For a federation bat'leth i do 71 dps for kdf (EXACTLY the same stuff) 56dps....."
Look at your captain's passive skills. If you're anything but orion you probably have a trait that increases ground damage.
"Partical Effect! Despretly need a setting to lower partical effect... as if you look at a cube with Plasma/radation/ both types of warp plasma dot STO freezes... and you do low dps"
You can change this in your video settings.
"Fire All Keybinds some of them are broken and do not fire!"
Yes. Damn it. I had to re-make my macro to work around it.
"Exchange - need a better search as i look for KDF doff-boff and all i see is fed....."
I agree. It is just silly for the exchange to show Federation Doffs/Boffs to KDF players doing the search.
Tricos: I one shot things with Trico's so I don't know what your talking about.
Torpedoes: Are you taking down the shields first? Even the weakest Torp flavour does more hull damage than a beam.
Cannons: DHC's working fine for me. Far more potent than Beams.
Turning: Can't test, No idea sorry.
Lag: Not your connection? Well since I'm in Australia and not getting Lag issues I think it might be. Recently my ISP had a problem which caused lag to certain things like this game but not others. Without information I can't tell you what the problem is. It could be your ISP slowing ports related to this game, and if your friends on the same ISP same problem. There could also be issues with programs clashing or transmitting data lowering your bandwidth. It could be an issue with your exchange if your using ADSL, and your friends are on the same Exchange.
Infected Ground: People have been complaining about people not knowing what they are doing in STF forever it seems. New people join and don't know what to do makes the problem so much worse. Teach them or don't join public ques.
Particle effects: The only problem I have is those big white splotches on some space maps.
Keybinds: So besides the Forums did you submit a detailed bug report or are you hoping they just notice? I have submitted bug reports on the ones I've noticed.
Exchange: Yes a Fed/KDF Filter would be awesome, and is a much requested feature.
If I ask you a question it is not an insult but a genuine attempt to understand why.
When I insult you I won't be discreet about it, I will be precise and to the point stupid.
So much testing and you couldn't be bothered to make this post a bit more readable? As for the gates, my 'extensive testing' has yet to get me blown up instantly. But i suppose it helps that my ship (heavy escort carrier) actually has some defense. Maybe you're a tactical flying in an escort setup for damage dealing?
On your other points, I have nothing to add. Other than the recommendation that omitting the use of abbreviations makes you come across alot more professional and dedicated. And more likely to be taken seriously.
