As reported over half a year ago in
this thread on the Gameplay Bug Reports forum, the shot animations of
Herald Antiproton Turrets under
Scatter Volley are still broken. The shots do not originate from the ship's hardpoints but from somewhere in space several kilometers behind or off to the sides of your ship. The type of ship does not matter (Scimitar in screenshots, KDF veteran destroyer from personal experience).

As this forum is called
The Art of Star Trek Online, perhaps the animation artists finally take note of this issue and fix it.
