What are some space sets that are good for damage dealers (escorts/destroyers)?
I don't give a hoot about helping others, no healing, casting mage spells, tanking or whatever. Just straight up tearing and blowing stuff up.
However i like addtional hit points, shield points, hull/shield regen because escorts are delicate.
I ask because someone said the 4pc kobali set was special for healers and that detracted me from it, whats special for DD's?
Include different type of sets, 3pc, 4pc, deflector/engine/shield sets, weapon/console sets, anything reputation or episodic.
In the ends it strongly depends on the build but give the nukara 2pc (shield+engine)+ undine 2pc (deflector + core) combo a look. Works nice for both offensive and defensive boosts.
From my escort the only set im using is the counter command deflector and engines for the damage and the defense bonus to help have reprocity proc more often. I use a Fleet Mine Warp Core and i have been using the aegis shields which have been serving me well with the passive and active resistances.
Also it comes down to your build the 2 pc adapted maco set/ honor guard set increase torpedo damage which can be nice. if you have a delicate ship then getting a few items to help keep you alive isn't a bad thing like the amazing console you get from the kobali ship, not only give a big heal but your attacks for the 20 seconds after will heal you for the damage they do.
Most of the sets boost some kind of damagethe challenge is squeezing enough (and the right combination of) consoles, weapons, deflectors, shields, and engine to maximize your ships effectiveness with that type of damage. For example:
And more. Check out http://sto.gamepedia.com/Set for more information on these and other sets, and dont neglect individual weapons consoles like the elite fleet vulnerability consoles and random lobi consoles like the Rule 62 console to boost torps and mines.
