Vulnerability Locater Console +1.60% Critical Chance (4 to 5 times)
Protonic Arsenal - 2 Set Bonus +3.0% Critical Chance (1x)
Equipt Weapons + 2.0 % per [CrtH] Modifier (up to [CrtH]x3 )
Calculating: 2,5 + 2,0 + 3,0 + (1,6 x 4) + 0,92 + 1,8 + 0,76 = 17,38
Depending on your Weapons ( +2 % / +4% / +6% ) = 23,38 % Critical Hit Chance
PLUS these Romulan Bridge Officers but i don´t know how much
[CrtH] they add and i don´t now if they STACK
PLUS"Protonic Arsenal - 3 Set Bonus" = +10% Critical Chance with Photon Projectile Weapons that makes something about 35% Chance
The BIG Question that bugs me, is it worth it ?
Using 7(or 8) of 10 Consoles to make that possible + the 2 (or 3) of the "Protonic Arsenal"Set"
obviously, you have to go with Antiproton ... but if you use the Advanced Fleet Antiproton Weapons you loose + 4 % Crit
And the other Question, can a Plasma Build still out-perform that ?
[ Maybe someone can enlighten me about the Romulan BO´s ]
And you shouldn´t use Protonic Polaron Weapons
the Weapon proc is not only 1 / 4 Chance of a Chance
it is also a limitation to ONCE every fire cycle
for example the "Experimental Proton Weapon" (50% of all your critical hits) has a *cycle* of 14 shots before you fire the weapon again (wihtout autofire)
no matter how often i tried, no matter how much the Weapon got crits during that cycle Combat log always gave me 1 "Protonic Burn"
Comments
i still don´t know if they Stack or not
The other Traits [ Subterfuge and Stasis Specialist ] does not stack
Basic Romulan Operative
+1% Critical Chance
+2.5% Critical Severity
+5% Power Recharge Speed for Cloaking
Romulan Operative
+1.5% Critical Chance
+3.8% Critical Severity
+10% Power Recharge Speed for Cloaking
Superior Romulan Operative
+2% Critical Chance
+5% Critical Severity
+15% Power Recharge Speed for Cloaking
I will assume that is does not stack
and play with a Ship with 5 Tactical Console Slots ["Vulnerability Locater Console" (+8 % CrtH) ] PLUS
2.5 (Base) + 2 (skillpionts) + 3,48 (Borg + Romulan + Tachykinetic C.) + 3 (Protonic Arsenal) + 2 (Superior Romulan Operative)
==> 20,98 % Critical Chance wtihout Weapons
And you shouldn´t use Protonic Polaron Weapons
the Weapon proc is not only 1 / 4 Chance of a Chance
it is also a limitation to ONCE every fire cycle

Yes it is possible to push 30% crit on a rom and yes it is op as hell.
as a Romulan / Reman Player your Trait is called
"Covert Operativ"
+ 1.5 % Critical Hit
+ 3.8 % Critical Damage
+ 10 % Cloack Recharge Time
5x "Superior Romulan Operative"
+ 2 % Critical Chance (x 5)
+ 5 % Critical Severity (x 5)
+ 15 % Power Recharge Speed for Cloaking (x 5)
TOTAL
= 11.5 % CritH
= 28.8 % CritD
= 85 % Cloacking CD
Just, WOW !
That is a HUGE advantage !
Okay the TOP Critical Chance is about 38,5 % ... that is evil
