Space sets for damage dealing ships?

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.

What about the delta 4pc set or 8472 4pc set?

Thanks

    My current choices:


    Countercommand Deflector (+ energy/kinetic skill) - Get [Inert] @URare

    Romulan Engine (+ Attack Patterns) - Get [Turn] @ URare

    Delta Warpcore (Trajector Jump) - Get [AMP] @ Urare - Get [W->S] @ Epic

    Most people use use Elite Fleet Resilient with [ResB] though I like my Delta shield for the 2-set

    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.

    Nukara Deflector
    Romulan Engines
    Nukara Shield

    Nukara 2pc for the dmg boost. Romulan engines for the APx boosts.
    If you've come to the forums to complain about the AFK system, it's known to be bugged at the moment.

    Here's a list for maximizing per energy type that you may find useful.

    Most of the sets boost some kind of damage—the challenge is squeezing enough (and the right combination of) consoles, weapons, deflectors, shields, and engine to maximize your ship’s effectiveness with that type of damage. For example:

    KHG/Adapted M.A.C.O.: +25% torp damage
    Breen: transphasic projectiles
    Dyson: protonic
    Dominion: poleron
    Romulan Singularity: plasma
    Nukara: 2.5% weapons
    Counter Command: phaser/disruptor
    Silent Enemy: Disruptor
    Protonic Arsenal: photon projectile
    Apex Predator: tetryon
    Temporal Warfare: Chronoton projectile
    Delta Ordinance: Radiation Damage
    Ancient Obelisk: Antiproton

    And more. Check out http://sto.gamepedia.com/Set for more information on these and other sets, and don’t neglect individual weapons consoles like the elite fleet vulnerability consoles and random lobi consoles like the Rule 62 console to boost torps and mines.
