Enhanced Projectile Efficiency Set

Equipping the T'varo and T'varo Retrofit's consoles gives the Enhanced Projectile Efficiency set bonus. This moderately increases your ship's damage with Projectile weapons, such as Torpedoes and Mines. In addition, this moderately decreases your cooldown for firing projectile weapons.

The consoles included in this set are the Singularity Stabilizer and the Plasma Destabilizer.


http://sto.perfectworld.com/news/?p=883911

Console - Universal - Singularity Stabilizer
Resets your Singularity Lockout period, and provides extra Singularity Charge.

Console - Universal - Plasma Destabilizer
Launches a massive Plasma torpedo at your target, dealing a great deal of damage over a large area and lowering the resistances of affected targets.

http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=665201

Significantly increased the damage of Tricobalt High Yield and Tricobalt Emission Seeking Torpedoes.

And well...yeah...maybe I'll roll a Rom Tac...

    Well, STO space combat has only one hero class, and that's the Tac Captain. Everybody else is just support cast.

    I'm still planning on rolling the Rom Sci, but I was going to do two Rom Sci.

    They've just made that Fleet T'varo look so juicy for a stealthbomber...it's hard to resist.

    theres no question that the romulan ships are the best ships in game, that power deficiency at end game will not be a big deal. this console synergy is over the top, it sounds like the mogai will be the best ship to use BO on, 25% less energy drain with every weapon shot is pure insanity.

    Enhanced cloak +torp dmg -recharge... free Omega HY torp... I know flying always cloaked torp boat is a dangerous way to play... still this thing is 10x better at it then the brel.

    Give it a month for a few people to put the KHG set on that thing add a lobi store ferengi console... and I predict torp spreads from cloak on these things being the most annoying thing in the game for awhile.

    Don't forget that, unlike KHG, the 2-piece console bonus will boost the Breen Cluster Torp, too.

    I never noticed the KHG didn't boost the breen cluster... hmmm that sounds like a bug if its true. I should go report that. lol

    Probably intentional given that the Cluster Torp is basically a Mine weapon with a precision delivery system.

    ....goes without saying


    I feel like the OP, was going to go with Sci, but feel pushed enough to porperly go tac on my first toon.... that'd be a new one.

    There's also the simple financial cost involved...looking at Sci and looking at Tac.

    We don't know what the actual prices are going to be, but if we look at current costs:

    T'varo Refit 500 Zen
    T'varo Retrofit 2500 Zen
    Fleet T'varo Retrofit (T1 Shipyard w/ 75% discount - 500 Zen)

    That's 3500 Zen.

    Fleet Ha'nom as a T5 Shipyard boat...are we looking at 4 or 5 FSMs there? 2000-2500 Zen.

    Say you want a F-Rom and K-Rom.

    2x Fleet T'varo...4000 Zen.
    2x Fleet Ha'nom...4-5k Zen.

    Say you want to try a Sci T'varo. That's another 500 Zen. You want another Ha'nom, it's another 2000-2500 Zen.

    Heck, even for the BO Mogai folks...that's T3 shipyard.

    The B'rel can still do a sci bop better though, that's about it. Going Cmdr and Lt Cmdr sci in a B'rel can be really fun in kerrat, too bad you can't do it with the T'Varo. So the B'rel still is the ultimate troll ship

    The more time I've spent in my Sci Hegh'ta, the more I've thought about tandems.

    I think it started though on my Fed main in his Chel Grett when he encountered a Tac/Sci tandem in Krenn/Korath with one sporting what I believe were Phased Polarons and the other sporting Elite Disruptors. I've never had a toon shredded as fast as what those two were able to pull off working together like that.

    I've run my Sci Hegh'ta alongside B'rel torpboats (as well as Hegh'ta, Norgh, etc) in Ker'rat, and it's definitely been a fun tandem.

    So yeah, I can see the KDF/K-Rom tandems of the Sci B'rel and Torp'varo...having all sorts of fun.

    Add in a Haakona bait ship, a Fleet Nom'nom snooper, and another B'rel or Torp'varo...maybe even a BOgai...

    yeah I already was going to use my BO Hohsus build since the mogai has almost the same boff layout I use anyway plus 1 more eng skill. The consoles now make it even better for this then a Hohsus.

    Never tried a sci Heghta, my sci brel stays cloaked and sci spams and shoots chroniton and harghpeng, sometimes transphasic and plasma also depends if im trying to do more damage myself or just support.
