Atrox DPS disapointing nowadays

i love my atrox and its a relaxing way to play the game but my pets are just not dishing out anywhere close to the damage that i see coming from an average tac pilot , though i appreciate my carrier is a support ship and should never have the damage of a fully fledged escort i feel my ship is under powered nowadays , using advanced peregrines mostly and i honestly dont think they are damaging up todays standards , anyone else feel that fighters need a boost or a i just expecting to much . any tips to help increase my pets damage would be appreciated .

    Well... elite scorpions were the big DPS pets when spammed with three purple flight deck officers with cooldown reduction, but with the changes that are coming to the hangar system that is going to change in a week or so.
    I would suggest waiting until that change happens before making any changes yourself.
    As for the Atrox... yes, it isn't a DPS boat. Any ship with only two tactical consoles is going to be substandard for DPS and pets only help so much. If you want to fly a carrier that is focused on damage you are going to need a Jem'hadar Dreadnought or something like that.

    While the Romulan rep is worth it, waiting for the Carrier changes is the best idea.
    I was once DKnight1000, apparently I had taken my own name so now I'm DKnight0001. :confused:
    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.

    Front page, Developers Blog #32 without checking it.

    A new Carrier UI, Better pet AI, the pets level up, you can see their health and launching more replaces missing ones not overwrites them. The ability to control different Hangers different ways.

    As they level up they do more damage, but they are losing some damage too. Rank 2 is what we have now.

    Recall will now dock your pets and repair them making a carrier like a mobile command centre for fighter craft which makes much more sense.

    And yes avoiding Warp Core breaches was a big Priority. And it Filters down to Saucer Seperation, the Aquarius, the Bortasqu BoP, the MVAE and the Romulan version of it. So it's a welcome Buff to the MVAE hopefully your pets won't die at the first cube now.

    do pet levels stay between maps ?
    the changes sound great but some things like azure nebula dont last long enough to get levels that would matter .
