Mk12's cost 2 times more fleet marks for 6% increase in stats... is it worth it?
Looking at the Enhanced Neutronium Alloy consoles...
yeah the jump from Mk X to Mk XI was also double the cost... but going from 12.5k fleet marks to 25k is one thing for a 6.38% increase... but going from 25k to 50k fleet marks for only another 6%?
Mk 10s are 18.8
Mk 11s are 20, increase by 1.2 or 6.38% of the Mk 10s
Mk 12s are 21.2, increase by 1.2 or 6% of the Mk 11s
I guess if your flooded in fleet marks it wouldnt be an issue.
me, im filthy stinking in game rich (real life sorta too), so mk xii is the way to go.
mk 11 is adequate, but who wants adequate, GIMME THE BEEF
Also, because of diminishing returns kicking in as hard as they do after about 30-35 percent resists... one mk xi or xii neutronium is all you really need, then add +resall RCS consoles for maximum lulz.
Seriously. The "optimum" mix is 1-1 and never more than 2 total engy consoles (unless youre a healer that needs the hullH mod or whatever it is)

You HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH with mk XI items. Now, if you are one of those who wants the best of the best for really unknow reasons, or you have millions of fleet credits or watever like this guy, then go foro mk XII. But if you cant afford it, dont worry about it, you are not losing anything. STO mechanics are always the same, people always want the best, but they cant realize sometimes its even stupid lol.
Most especially on alts. There is no reason to spend more effort than you want to get your gear. Get Mk XI gear or simply take your time. We each have our own price that we are willing to pay. I am really annoyed that the fleet tactical consoles only come in Mk XII. I am not willing to spend that much so none of my alts are getting them.
