Jellico....Engineer ground.....Da'val Romulan space Sci
Saphire.. Science ground......Ko'el Romulan space Tac

JJ-Verse will never be Canon or considered Lore...It will always be JJ-Verse
Im probably late with this but I had to say something...my fleet has just reached T5 on everything with the fleet starbase and im very happy in the fleet but right now im very disappointed with STO.
why make elite fleet weapons when all you can get is phasers? I think STO devs should look into making elite weapons for all types...I think we all would agree with better from them
Cryptic made a lot of beams with a lot of procs. There were always going to be winners and losers. Disruptors just happen to be one of the best in the game, the elite ones all the more so. Phasers in contrast have always been extremely random, unpredictable and unreliable. It's too bad. You'd think phasers would be the least unpredictable and random of any beam in the game. (I don't remember any starfleet captain being all "Target their whatever and disable it, I don't care what, weapons. Shields, engines. You name it. Surprise me." but whatev) They should probably have just had a built in acc mod the same way antiproton has severity. Instead you have a random proc that is useless at worst and situational at best and you have an elite bonus that heals for less than a valdore console. Very weaksauce compared to elite disruptors. Especially when taken into account with the reality of end game.
