Tried out Tractor Beam Repulsors, and while the damage seems nice I'm finding the skill difficult to use and somewhat selfish. Am I wrong in thinking so? AM I just using it wrong?
well, theres only so much damage that ship can deal on its own. its still a sci ship, but it is the 1 sci ship that can contribute spike damage. re evaluate after the tier 4 passives are nerfed, thats making a lot of people nearly invincible.
more often then not your better off with the borg 2 part set for the free powerful hull heal. the aegis set pieces you have are giving you +10 to your evasion score, damage you don't take is damage you don't heal, so not a bad choice actually.
would the Borg 2-piece set be any more preferable if it was the Mk XII?
Thanks a lot. That's certainly interesting info to know . There were a few things I'd like to clarify though.
What did you mean by aren't a bad thing 'on a phaer using escort'? Would i use something else if it was a different weapon type?
some weapons like tetryon and polaron's proc benefit from flow caps. makes no difference with phasers and on an escort there really isn't anything else needed. it doesn't have any high end eng or sci skills that rely on certain sci consoles to be effective.
DDIS, I am a LvL 50 KDF Tac captain looking for some advice on ships. Currently I am flying a Vet destroyer but I am also considering the Fleet Qin and the Fleet Vor'cha. I know the Qin still has maneuverability issues but I am hoping that gets fixed sooner or later.
I guess what I am looking for is a sub-battle cruiser damage dealer. I like the vet ships movement but the Disruptor Lotus on a 5 min cooldown...meh.

well in my opinion you have several very fun options. the vet ship is great, the fleet vorcha is kind of a more cruiser like version of the vet ship, and proboly sorta redundant. it can be quite a bit more sturdy though. the qin is jut a bad ship to fly though, its long, and pivots on ther very aft part of the ship and just feels wrong. its also got a bad shield mod, an unideal ens station and a below average turn rate. the mirror qin at least has an eng ens though. the retro and fleet somraw lack basically all of the qins problems, and the fleet nasican escort can go toe to toe with fed escorts. a vorcha, mirror vorcha, or fleet ktinga are great ships too, i have several builds posted for all these ships. they are all a lot of fun.
Not sure if this is the right topic to ask this (apologies if it's not), but how's the Omega Plasma torp launcher rated for PVP play? Thinking about using it as a rear launcher, though I might just stick a regular Plasma torp there.

the omega torp is very interesting. i think an entire torp overhawl should be based off of it. the omega torp has 5 charges, and fires about once a second. it seems to have a bit higher dot damage too, thats a very good combination then. its a good torp to use up front unmodified by torpedo abilities, just autofireing. it sets fires well, and everyone in a wile will strike direct hull, just because of the rate of fire.
where it shines, and has a deep drawback is with torp abilities. spread is a bit useless on it other then for dealing with npcs as part of an aoe PVE build. but the HY projectile actually has hitpoints, 4k of them, and can survive a few TBR hits, a fair amount of often missing weapons fire, a PSW, all sorts of stuff. its the most reliable to hit heavy projectile yet, and tends to deal around 30k damage to other players if it hits hull.
the MAJOR downside to this though is every time you use a torpedo ability, or exhaust all the charges, there is a 10 second cooldown before you can fire again at all. so if you use a torp ability every 15 seconds, it will almost never be able to do what its best at, have actual dps and fire rapidly. if you want to use spread, a standerd torp would be beter frankly, and fire more often. the HY projectile is nice though
they best part is you can disintegrate ships borg command ship style. even an unbuffed torp can, and i almost suspect that if your at a low enough % hull, it will instantly disintegrate someone. im pretty sure a shield impact on a very near death target vaped them, when the torps damage alone, through shields, should not have. ive seen this multiple times now, and think i heard a dev float the idea a month ago before all this launched

I also had a DOFF question, do you think the Nigulan bridge officer who according to STOwiki does: Chance to reduce the time for any subsystem targeting attack to recharge after use/20% chance: Improve recharge time by 30 sec, Chance to reduce recharge time on Cannon Rapid Fire and Cannon Volley is worth picking up?

I was thinking the same thing about the HY projectile, but with my build I only have 2 tac skill slots, one of which is TT1 and the other one will probably be either APD or TS2 for spreading plasma burns. Wanted to use the Omega torp as a rear launcher, but I will probably just use a regular torp with acc modifiers...

if you use a battle cruiser then a tech doff build with an AtB or 2 is the best way to reduce cooldowns. the cannon doffs are sorta unreliable. if your in an escort though, you can double up cannon powers easily enough

Thanks for your help!
that rapid fire torp that doesn't have HY isn't going to do a whole lot, or be able to rapid fire very often if its stuck aft. on 1 ship i run it up front with no torp abilities and let it auto fire, and the results are pretty good.
I think the omega torp fits perfectly on my Plas'tinga. High rate of fire. And moreover (and this is why it beats the romulan torp) it does massive DoT.
How I see it now, equiping the omega torp on a torp boat will interfere with the other torps, because of timing. So that leaves only one torpedo in case of omega on either front or back.
I am wondering how torpedo doffs will influence the recharge/ cooldown rate. Does the change of -5 sec apply after each shot? in that case I will also equip a trico on the back.
Need to test this somewhere in the coming days.
One last thing i noticed by looking at the stats in system space:
The plasma Dot of energy weapons is not boosted anymore by the ambiplasma envelope (torpedo) console.
The Dot of torpedos is still boosted by both ambiplasma envelope (torpedo) and plasma infuser (plasma energy) consoles.
I always thought both consoles boosted Dot's from both energy and torps....
this is the most dangerous non DHC capable cruiser in STO. it is not a spike killer, but it can deals so much damage over time it almost seems like it is. under the right circumstances, and the right buffs stacked, your enemies will melt in about the time it takes for CRF to end. being such a gradual damage dealer, its damage can evaporated in the sea of cross heals, the number 1 limiting factor to dps cruiser effectiveness. but when it deals dps unhindered, its does so in a big way.
combat logs from a good long match, really got to put it through its paces. over 2000 dps, more then 10k swings, over 1000 crits, and a total of more then 2 million damage.
i wish such an obvious question wasn't so hard to answer. just look at each weapon's advantage with the build. single cannons and turrets with good CRF up time will throw the most amount of shots down range of any other build i find, so its cycles through fireing cycles, and thus procs the fasted.
phasers- they turn off subsystems, always handy. but it doesn't deal spiky enough damage to really make a shield proc hurt like it would if DHCs were being used
disrupters- with its hull defense debuff proc, DEM's damage would be enhanced
tetryon- shield damage proc buffed by flow caps, works great with tet glider
polaron- proc buffed by flow caps, lots and lots of pol procs can be devastating, even deactivate subsystems if you get lucky
plasma- actually has synergy with EWP, plasma tac consoles buff the plasma damage it does. use EWP3 as much as possible to make up for the reduced damage it does to anyone using STF shields
antiproton- criting single cannons arent going to hurt that much more then normal. your better off with anything else with several acc mods

would i be trading off to much if i went full polaron build and swapped out the two omega for the jem set for the extra polaron bonus damage?

thank you
with the regent, the only change would be going without ET1, and useing the 180 deg torp fore or aft with whichever torp ability you want.
the dread, well you can make it a decloak alpha striker with DHCs, or just run it like an assault cruiser. its proboly best with all beams, take a look at one of my vorcha build for station setups and emulate that
would i be trading off to much if i went full polaron build and swapped out the two omega for the jem set for the extra polaron bonus damage?
i think glider with 3 flow cap would be better, but if you cant commit to havering 3 of those consoles use the jem set. the flow consoles buff the proc as well.
check in game which adds more damage, the direct buff to weapons damage or the extra glider damage. thats what you should base your decision on
if you don't use tetryon or polaron weapons, and don't plan on using glider, you don't need the flow cap though. and if you don't use EWP you don't need particle gens.
if thats the case you could put more points in batteries, subsystem repair, and maybe some points in sensors and dampeners
thank you for posting this so fast. can a dreadnought work with a aux2bat build ? as I feel this would be more powerful for me ?
my eng fly's my regent and dreadnought so particle gens are great.
Im not sure on glider/ flow cap at I feel the regent would be better with plamsa and the dreadnought phaser
yep, with the COM and LTC eng theres plenty of room for 2 AtB. if you use plasma weapons, remember that plasma tac consoles buff EWP, so use version 3 so you can get the most out of using plasma weapons
do you have any plans to post a vesta aux2bat dps build sorry to ask its just you have a lot of skill.
do you feel aux cannons are any good or should I use plamsa on the vesta as it works with the part gens ?
On my eng assault cruiser regent im going to use the gas console also on my eng im hoping to get 125/125/98/5 just like ocp001 did.

its unreliable is all, exactly like the cannon and beam skill doffs are. id say its still worth it for the chance to have better EPtS up time.
