One of my new characters hit lvl 40 yesterday. Since it seemed kinda boring to keep doffing it up to 50 and just equip it with a Charal, the usual lockbox/fleet consoles and weapons, I was inspired by a thread that appeared here a few months back, and tried to find out as to how much value I could get out off my escort on a low budget.
As the upper budget limit i used the money i got from running a single foundry farm event. (Fed Farm 102 by graaw2012), which amounted to 547.000 EC.

Free advanced escort:
4x
Polaron Dual Heavy Cannons Mk.X [acc]x2, ~9.000 EC each = 36.000
3x
Polaron Turrets Mk.X [acc]x2, ~11.000 EC each = 33.000
Hyperinjection Warp Core Mk.X [SEP] [W->E] = 35.000
Jem'Hadar Resiliant Shield Mk.X = free mission reward
Jem'Hadar Combat Impulse Mk.X = free mission reward
Positron Deflector Array Mk.X [Ptrg] [Shds] [SIF] Mk.X = 65.000
1x
Neutronium Alloy Mk.X = 40.000
1x
RCS Accelerator Mk.X = 28.000
2x
Power Insulator Mk.X ~8.000 EC each = 16.000
1x
Isometric Charge = 185.000
4x
Polaron Phase Modulator Mk.X ~15.000 EC each = 60.000
= 498.000 EC
the rest was invested in batteries, 1 green TT Conn Doff and 2 green Shield distribution Doffs.
In the end I'm quite happy with the outcome. I parsed a few normal STFs so far and came out at an
average of 6.208 DPS for Cure Space and 5.998 DPS for Infected Space.
Hull: 41.006, Shields. 5.896 Shields, 65% Def, 33 max impulse, 46 deg turn rate, power levels: 125W - 39S - 97E - 29A

Forgot to fill it out. I updated the link below. Haven't hit 50 yet, so those are the skill points that I have currently distributed. (Disregard the ground ones, though. )
