Right now I have 3x3 hull and shield heal with the kobali field for the oh TRIBBLE hull heal. in Traits shield tech was not available so shield freq analist listed twice. Just completed the Iconian rep, and considering replacing the DBB with the radiant array and one of the command cruiser consoles with the iconian console for the radiant 2 pc. I toyed with the quantum torp and it did not seem as effective. I just cannot go all beams I just enjoy the TS3 ruining smaller ship's day too much. constructive comments welcome/ desired http://www.stoacademy.com/tools/skillplanner/index.php?build=jeddakofmarsalpha_1513

    If you're looking to up DPS, the first place I would go is to replace the Kobali set with the Iconian Set. Either 3pc with a Fleet Warp Core or all 4 Iconian with the Core upgraded to Ultra Rare for Amp. Obviously, it's cheapest to go 3pc with Fleet Core.

    For consoles, the Command consoles are all survival oriented and do nothing to increase damage output. If you're not having problems surviving, then I would look at replacing some of your defensive oriented consoles with things like the Assimilated Module, EPS Flow Regulators, Embassy Plasma Consoles, etc.

    This is how I have my Presidio set up. Obviously, this won't fit you exactly, I run all beams so some changes will be required. It's just a base template to show what I mean. I haven't done any parses in a while, but this ship melts enemies very quickly. Last time I checked, it was in the low to mid 40k range. Would be higher with better piloting. Just some ideas to get you started. Skill tree is complete, DoFF setup is in notes.

    I'm using consoles and traits you might not have access to, so let me know what you have and we can make changes accordingly and try and find something that fits you better. Again, my build is just for ideas.. by no means is it the 'right' way or the 'only' way. Builds should tailor to the individual so by all means alter it as you wish.

    Let me know if anything isn't clear.

    This is probably on the other end of the spectrum, so feel free to pick the Kinetic Siege Refit apart and use whatever you can from it.

    The biggest potential DPS increase for anyone will always be piloting and positioning. Work on that, and you'll see improvements.

    EDIT: Used the updated ship.

    I knew using Kinetics would be playing the game on hard mode, but what I didn't realize was how bad the deck is stacked against Kinetics.

    I have the assim already. realised i didn't post the build. that's corrected. no access to any fleet gear since I am not in a fleet nor will I be joining one. been there done that and not going to grind 8K D a day to give it all to a fleet ad a tax.

    Not really sure how you consider a Fleet a 'tax,' but ok. You're not just giving them stuff, you're buying gear that you use and fleets have some of the best gear you can get.

    Should you decide to stay with no fleet, then you can use regular Damage Boosting Tactical Consoles, and go with the Iconian 4pc set with an UR Core. If you have a Plasmonic Leech, just run Flow Caps in your Science Consoles, otherwise use them for universals or consoles that add to your shield power.

    The Draco fleet is the best fleet ive been in they never demand you donate resources just ask if you can donate, they have also been very helpful with me with build questions and running missions.
    Don't be dismayed i was once in a fleet like the one you mentioned they demanded at least some donations each week and they were not friendly much either so yes bad fleets exist but they arnt all bad.
