Ok i know consoles dont have the selection like pc does and i know the arbiter is the most recommended but consoles dont have that ship yet.

So which t6 cruiser is best to get for dps on consoles?

Engineer captain btw

    Which ones do you have access too? The T6 Galaxy Dreadnaught is a very nice ship. The T6 Oddy is great ship. Battlecruiser is another great ship. Just about all the T6 Cruisers have ups and downs. Is there a list somewhere to know which ones consoles have access too?

    None of those are really terrible; The Arbiter has an advantage in tactical consoles and more tactical seating for bridge officers - but the more traditional cruisers have excellent durability capabilities and enough tactical ability to succeed.

    Though if you're looking forward to the arbiter, I'd wait, I'm sure it'll show up eventually.

    Wow... You don't even have the T6 Guardian?

    Those 3 cruisers are pretty decent, but not outstanding. I hope they release more ships for the console by the time Christmas rolls around... I hate to say it, but Cryptic really seems to be milking the consoles players with limited C-Store ships and lots of lock boxes....

    Op,

    I bought the T6 Andromeda Explorer and I'm enjoying the ship. I've no issues with it in the PvE environment for stories or ques.

    Variant includes Galaxy class if you want the Enterprise D.

    Mostly using gear given as rewards from Mirror Invasion event. Mark XI and XII.

    Molecular Cohesion Nullifier Field ability helps me with damage. I run with default 4 torpedoes and 4 phaser array combo. Aim for middle of group of ships, slow down within 2km, trigger ability, pass through slowly, launch both sets of multiple torpedoes on exit. Generally mop up except for the big ships. Reverse direction and slam with another round of torpedoes. Phasers firing as often as they can. Rise and repeat with the ability as often as I can. As long as I don't sit in the middle of a fight, ship holds up very well. I find Dyson Sphere is a good place to test in Allied section.

    Consoles boost phasers or torpedoes. Use torpedo spread and yield, I think Omega I as ship turns easier when it kicks in.

    Best for DPS, I can't say. Nothing worse than a 5 sec fight for me. I just plan to run with what I get from Mission and reputation sets. More than adequate with what I am seeing in the game.
