Taking Too much Kinetic/Other Damage and aggro.

I have noticed here in the past couple of days that I have been taking more aggro and Kinetic or other Damage than is usual. I have had to outfit my ship and it's traits for more defense but to no avail. Anyone else getting this problem?

    If you're PUG'ing around and your damage output is above the STO average (which is very low, TBH), be prepared to take all the fire.

    Damage output by the NPCs is no different with the recent, major update.

    Yeah Pug's would be it. But never have I encountered anything like this before, NPC's seem to hit harder than they once did. . .

    nullifier consoles from the embassy can assist with this to negate some of the threat you put out. however if you're damage is too far above the rest of the team then even with nullifiers it may not matter. what exactly are you fighting?

    Check your space traits, make sure they're all still assigned as well.

    It depends on what Boff abilities you use as well.

    For example, one time in ISA I decided to remove all Exotic Particle Generators and any other console that enhances exotic damage. That made my gravity well extremely weak. Despite the pitiful amount of exotic damage I was dealing, I still managed to get the full attention of all the Borg Spheres.
