    The Boffs are 2 Sup Op tac Roms, Human Eng, Borg eng, and a hierarchy sci. so all together I have x2 Superior Ops, leadership, x2 efficient and 1 pirate space traits with this boff layout.

    Maybe it's just for the sake of the theme, but how about some of the KT consoles? I love that Mining Laser, and the set bonuses are nice, even though I don't have the Dreadnaught console. Yet.

    Definitely for the sake of the theme, but worth mentioning anyways, the KT Torps are a fun addition to this as a themed ship.

    Hey op, your build is cool as far as gear is concerned. To upgrade it to mk14 will surely give you a DPS increase. I used the romulan engines myself for a long time however after the skill revamp a few month ago going in with ico 4 piece seemed like the way to go for me. Your console choices are close to optimum as far as I can tell with a nice direction toward balance. Only the timeline stabilizer console or m6 computer would come to mind if you seek more firepower.

    I noticed in the boff powers that you use ep2x stuff three times. Please try to use only two copies to make the best use of it. If you have a free eng slot to fill then I’d take aux to structural integrity field for more survivability or direct energy modulation for more deepz. I also found that transfer shield strength often heals better than a sci team. Speaking of sci powers, do you have access to the nandi or krenim sci vessel?

    Your balanced build is reflected on a balanced skill tree as well. It is my experience there however that more agressive approaches do not hurt your survivability all that much. More tac (!), less eng could really push your DPS quiet a bit.

    Since I also decided to go fo the kelvin theme on my aoy toon the tier 6 connie was also my first craft of choice. I can give you a link to my build. I don’t consider it better, just a bit more on the aggressive side. Also I still need some time to complete it. Most notably integrate the ico set.

    Again OP, cool build. Thanks for sharing. :)
