Although I haven't seen very many transports get blown away when I play.
I can see where GW would be detrimental in that part of the TFO.
Well in my experiences it usually is okay but I've had a run or two where I've seen multiple ones blow up. Typically when I tractor one I hit EM immediately just to attempt to avoid the transport getting caught in a breach.
I did not mean I only have or use EPtE. I also use Evasive and APO. I mentioned EPtE only in response to flipping power settings.
I also use Evasive Maneuvers, but EPtE is a nice addition. I don't have APO, the ship I'm using doesn't have enough tac seating for that. Still, both of them gets me back to the starting point pretty quickly.
I like the big, slow whales *Chuckle* Still, his MM Temporal Science ship has some pretty nice turning help. Enough I can slot DBBs on the front.
Now a LTS and loving it.
Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything.

Its not just Grav Wells, its Aoe skills (Aceton beam with weaponized Emitters) Tykens Rift, Pets with FAW, exploding Klingon near the Transport...... Those transporters have very low HP and its really annoying to play that part of the mission at some times
FAW from players or pets shouldn't be hitting the transports once they flip sides because there's no travel time from ship to target the way there is for the cannon or torpedo volleys.
Pets like rommie drones (plasma torps) or mine layers will cause potential issues though no where near as much as player based stuff.

I did not pay that much attention but could it not just be the warpcore breaches oft he other ships that explode near the „now“ friendly transport that kills it so often?

Breaches more than likely are the main cause which is why welling the groups won't help.
Things that cause aoe or are simply not focussed on a single target will increase that chance of poofing much more.
It's a stage where controlled aggression is a better tactic than the standard mindless pewpew.
Indeed while the transports are on a timer, there's a difference between "fast but controlled" and "FIRE EVERYTHING!", if you focus on the transport you can pull them out of range of the core breaches or at least far enough that they'll survive then heal them up while you tractor it back to the fleet.

Only if you believe that forcing starfleet culture on the klingons is appropriate. If you want to be culturally sensitive, you should be just blowing them away in glorious combat. Or, you know, if you want the map done faster.
"Cultural sensitivity", lol... I might care about their culture when they stop trying to kill me.

Nah. That would be synonymous with "it's a stage where 90% of the playerbase fail miserably" but it ain't that bad. Though I do admit that I switched my standard powers a bit.

Yea it’s really a mixed bag. Much like Gauntlet it's time to use some rapid fire instead of volley but that does not make for the same satisfactory game experience than simply cleaning a stage with the latter.
Perhaps on elite the critters won’t explode so easily and one gets a better time window. Until then I better let spiritborn do it who had a hand for this in past runs or practice in some precision work myself.

To be honest my Tactic isn't that complex, it's just something I've learned from WoW and FF14 that sometimes it's better to hold back, that and I target the transport as my main target so it tends to be first ship to go down. Though obviously there's nothing I can do about what my team is doing.

The highest goal in Klingon culture is to die in combat......obliging them is just “Celebrating Diversity”. Not to mention how much more pleasant life is for everyone else once the Klingons are where they long to be (Stovakor).
Not convinced that killing any but the final transport would speed up that phase, the spawn seems to be on a basic trickle timer tick.
It only blanks to zero once the final one goes away either by drop off or poofing out of existence so might as well be dropping off the first half dozen or so for a few extra marks.
