    I used phaser with 2 boffs using polaron and 2 boffs using tetryon, and had no issues. just use your abilities right and you shall be fine.

    Time travel and glass-cannon ships hurt my head and is NOT what Trek is about. Trek is exploration, becoming better as a species, and gaining scientific knowledge while holding on to the traditions that got us where were are.

    Fighting ground Iconian with non-intelligent AI is a real pain.
    I became very frustrated trying to do the special episode release of this on Elite last year. Your BOFF have no clue what red spots on the ground mean. Instant death.

    In case you ever do it as a Sci. Science officers are best off using high particle generator based builds and skills in nearly all arcs of the game. Most Sci Abilities have 50% to 100% shield pen and very little to resist them with NPCs. Destabilizing Resonance Beam, Gravity well, Reversed Tractor Beam Repulsers(needs expensive Doff), and feed back pulse are all very good options for dealing damage as a science officer. Generally a strong sci build can take your through the mid and late game without having to really rely on your base weapons at all.
    Your Isokinetic Cannon deals 150902 (37320) Kinetic Damage(Critical) to Vonph Battleship.

    Reversed Tractor Beam Repulsers

    If you reverse a repulsor, isn't it just a tractor beam?
