It seems my New PvP strategy is pissing Feds off

edited March 2013 in PvP Gameplay
I created a new KDF Sci Toon

She flies a B'rel Refit - soon to be Fleet B'rel

She is a Torp boat but max spec'd into sci

My whole strategy in PvP matches is to disable and harass the top DPSer - killer - to take them out of the match as much as possible.

To do this I run 120 Aux - VM3, subnuke, sensor scan,warp plasma,GW

On top of that I hit players with Chrono torp spreads, Chrono mines to slow the fast players down.

Plasma torp spreads

and sometime if they are weak I will drop a Breen Cluster right on top of them.

Bottom line this is pissing a lot of the high dps killers off - because they want to kill and are being shut down.

I see this as a legit tactic to help my team but I have got some nasty messages.

What do you guys think?

Isn't this the job of a sci?

    That's pretty much the way to go.

    I get people who rage at my SS1, so yeah I'm not surprised that you get TRIBBLE from losers.

    I need to run a Sci Sci-focused B'rel with one of my characters. I tend to focus more on damage with my Tacs.

    Don't feel bad, it's a legit tactic. Science officers are supposed to debuff. If those hotshot tactical officers are too lazy to carry a backup science officer with charged particle burst I, then it's their own fault.

    Yeah, and shame on the science officers who aren't protecting their teammates.

    Indeed. If you are going to fight klingons as sci in a sci ship, you should be carrying at least one decloak sci ability.

    Oh its still a dirty tactic as any cloaking is no matter what a dirty tactic but still its valid.

    Personally, I take it further and add VM doff, SS doff, PSW, Tric mines for another interrupt, PSWTorp, w/a single aux2batt/etpa. I find it ironic people complain about 10 sec cooldown debuff from SS doff, but have no problem w/the greater than 10 sec gains from aux2batt (and other cooldown doffs), so I use aux2batt to spam it more.:P

    Edit: Be careful w/EWP since it psuedo decloaks you (ie not the full decloak that resests the cloak timer and drops the cloak benefits, but you'll be targetable w/o shields.)

    Funny some have said why don't you decloak and fight me - lol

    Yeah then B'rel lasts long with 5k shields and 22k hull

    That is why it has only 4 BO slots - 22k hull and 0.8 shield mod - it has a Battle cloak to protect it!

    Pay no mind to the complainers. You're doing exactly what a sci B'rel should be doing. If they have a problem with it, they can start teaming up with sci ships that are competent at revealing cloaked vessels.

    I have actually had several Fed tacscots rage quite the match already - does the weekend bring out the teens?

    If you're getting rude messages, you're either really awful, or you're fore-filling your role by making the opposing team's life harder in a fair and counter-active way.

    Good job!

    Thanks. I don't go in for kills unless the opportunity presents itself. I am there to shut down the other sides most deadly players. It seems everyone is out for the kills these days to win the match, I am out to make it harder for them to get kills.

    I guess this really frustrates some people because they are so used to flying in full speed and blowing everything in there path and only had to worry about others trying the same thing.

    But if i can shut them down, cut off their speed and dmg, gimp them then I have possibly saved my side from getting killed.

    Obviously the tacscorts high speed and high DPSers have not had to deal with much CC lately.

    As much as I hate it that is a legit build and a good one at that.

    I only dislike disable/drain builds because they prevent players from playing the game when taken to the extreme. Geting killed by a better player is fine but disabled/drained to oblivion just isnt fun.

    That being said kill those feds and kill them good :)

    I'm not saying its op its just that no matter how you look at it cloaking is a dirty move.

    Sci do that and worse.Fed sci ships wil do the same plus they will tractor beam with danubes and since their ships are almost invulnerable they will stand and fight with you.So do your best :)
    It is a pity that the IP is not respected in this game .There are some episodes from DS9 in which a bop will decloak and kill a couple of jhas one by one.(master kor honorable death for example)

    I agree - legit, but not if you are using the broken Rom boffs.


    So that's my only question, are you using the broken Rom boffs?
