Ground Based Damage

Is it me or is anyone else having issues with ground damage?

I am not even making my base damage/by weapon on enemies... Ensigns feel like end game bosses unless I take my gear off and slap it back on...

Obviously i need some tuning in the traits as I just realized. but still on normal difficulty I should not be shooting 10-40 consistently with weapons respectively marked 209/154....

Makes no sense... even without the numbers it just feels terribly slow compared to my other characters...

I do run on elite for patrols to master ships fast and sometimes for endeavors, I have tried toggle on ground and in space assuming difficulty might be independent, no results....

Any thoughts here?

If I draw dead on ideas I may make a video to show the difference between one character and another...

Is it any mission or specific to the New Klingon story ground missions as those are harder than earlier story arcs.

Nothing in particular. Any mission. I think it might have resolved itself. had something to do with ground crew assignments bugging out. fixed that through some unknown means and now I am back to mowing people down.
