the phaser and disruptor quad cannons are special, and if they made AP ones they'd have to make quads for every energy type. Besides, quads actually suck compared to most Mk XII dual heavies.
The quad canon was made for one purpose and one purpose alone, because the Defiant had one and they wanted to include it in the game in some form. The Defiant, like all federation starships, used phasers.
Since they had already made the graphics and a 4 cannon BOP, they decided to include one for the KDF as well, which of course, uses disruptor, like all KDF vessels.
Honestly, it is not that great of a weapon, so I do not know why you would want it. Its only purpose is to role-play the Defiant.
