Best Dps Setting

I am looking for a perfect DPS build, with the best non-lockbox ship there is for a lvl 50 engineer. I know it's hard, but no matter the price I want to try (except items that go over 10 mil credits each, as a total I don't care).

    Start with 3 Technician Doffs and a couple of A2B skills to bounce between. :)

    Other then that we would need to know Faction and ship type.

    There are also tons of build help threads down in the various ship sections of the forum: Federation Shipyard, Klingon Fleetyard, and Romula Flotilla.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    Why Auxiliary to battery? I prefer a turret-cannon setup, so I'm guessing the avenger would be the best choice. I'm a federation engineer.

    A2B2 gives you nearly +20 Weapon, Shields, and Engine power for -41 Aux power. It has a 15 second cooldown with another version - and the use of Technician Doffs can decrease that to a point where you can run nearly constant +20s. That is why A2B builds are so popular. You get extra DPS and extra survivability for very little cost.

    You're throwing a lot of restrictions out there for trying to aim for that best DPS build (which there is only one in STO today and that's Romulan piloted Scimitars with Beams). If you're going to stick to cannons then look at Kumari instead vs the Avenger (latter more suited for beam boats) as a base.
