Fleet Warp Core Suggestions?

I have the Fleet Bortas (200K FC Version) being flown by an Engineering KDF Captain...

I'm using 7 Mk XII Nanite Disruptor beam arrays and 1 of the 8472 Bio-Molecular Photon Torpedo. The ship is built around a single Aux2Bat build with EPtW and EPtS. I'm working on the Omega Rep to earn myself either the KHG, Adapted KHG, or the Omega Space Set (Shield, Engine, and Deflector). However, I am currently using the Obelisk Subspace warp core and have the Solanae Overcharged available. Is there an Elite Fleet warp core that will outdo my current options? Which is it?

Thanks for your opinions!

    My preference would be for the [Elite Fleet Reinforced Warp Core Mk XII [Sep] [W->S] [SCap] [AMP] [SST]], the same one I use on my single aux2batt Avenger.

    A Fleet Spire core to keep up weapons power (resists weapon drain and recharges the weapon power faster) would be what I'd go with for a beam cruiser. The other mods are your choice, save for [Amp] which is a must-have.

    Well, let me ask a few more intelligent questions...

    Would a A -> W modifier work well in an A2B build or would it only succeed kn draining all aux power?
    Does a W -> S actually take 7.5% away from weapons or just add that amount to shields?
    Would a W -> A modifier combined with an EPtW and an A2B continuously cycle power to and from weapons? Wouldn't this essentially keep weapons always at 125%? Seems like a cheat...

    I'm hoping some of the more serious players will chime in on these questions...

    Thanks!

    To answer the first two: The amount is basically copied, you don't loose that 7.5%, it just gets added to the other power. A->W would be useless after hitting Aux2Bat, as you have almost no power to copy from and therefore gain 0 weapon power whenever Aux2Bat is on. It is live in reacting to power, so if Aux2Bat is down you will gain Weapon power.

    I haven't tried Aux2Bat with W->A, I may have to play with that. Aux2Bat factors power levels at initiation, so gaining more Aux after starting it doesn't effect what is in the other systems. A Spire core along with Aux2Bat will keep you 125 W a good portion of the time anyway.

    for A2B build on JHDC with 2 copies of Aux2Bat, I went for Fleet Sprite core for its weapon drain resist property. AMP is a must have.
