Hi guys,
I'm back to the game after years not playing and so I wonder how can I make my fleet Ar'kif good for elite missions ?
can you give some advice ?
consider i don't have any CP/Lobi ship.
I have almost every reputation at T5.
Don't have much money (about 65M credits) and, considering no one sells CP points anymore (and they're price is maximum anyway) I'd prefer stickin on free stuff.
I already have Epic Mk-XIV Antiproton DHCs (x4), Kinetic Cutting Beam and Delphic Antiproton Turrets (x2), some good consoles (Fleet Mk XIV antiproton dmg + crit chance) TAC x5, Romulan Plasma SCI x4, Borg Console + RCS Accelerator (the one that give EPS boost) in ENG.

That being said I think there may be cheap EPS and torpedo builds that outpace energy builds these days. But I am running pretty classic energy builds too—so I don’t know how to build those yet.
For boff abilities and cool downs you could double up most abilities or use photonic officer 2 plus possibly some readiness in your skill tree or a single copy of auxiliary to battery 1 along with photonic officer 2. Photonic officer has been improved recently making it a go to these days for boff ability cool downs.
The A2B1 + PO2 combination is working well for me but needs 3 VR technician duty officers that you can get for free from doffing at the B'tran Cluster.
Tac - TT1, APB1, CRF2, CSV3
Tac - Best Served Cold 1, Kemocite 2
Eng - ET 1
Universal - EPtE 1, A2B 1, EPtW3
Sci - ST 1, HE 2, PO2
Science team could be replaced with a pilot boff ability of your choice. There's also a variety of EPG related skills that work good as a Lt. science boff skill (more on that below). Adding an emergency conn hologram to your active duty officers (from Phoenix box) to enable EPtE to reset the cooldown of evasive maneuvers for increased mobility is very handy.
Starship traits that would go well with this setup would be Emergency Weapon Cycle and Withering Barrage.
There's a lot more good build advice mentioned here that should work great in updating your build - Cannon Ships in the Current Century
I use their skill tree recommendation but often prefer 2 points into impulse expertise (move 1 point from hull capacity) and sometimes take both captain power nodes as compared to the second point into EPG. It really a matter of taste and what you're trying to accomplish.
Two point of EPG can be a great way to "weaponize" a variety of LtC science skills available that rely upon it. One point into impulse expertise can be good for a faster turning ship. My endeavor points are only at 125.
Think you'll find some of the meta gear recommendations (i.e. deflector, engine, core, and shield) recommendations work very well as compared to some of the gear available back in the day.
Just one question ... you put CRF and CSV that are 2 cannons abilities. Why that ?
Wouldn't it be better to have something else since I can't use them together and there's not that much difference between the two ?
BTW believe it or not, but I do have Emergency Power Cycle ... before I left I converted dilithium to buy CP and get Mogai T6 ahah
withering Barrage may be hard to get tho
BTW ,,, I was checking the stuff on DPS League, but that seems to be ,,, crazy ? No set bonuses ? Are you sure ?
As for the Skill Tree ... Tactical Readiness ? Really ? What use can it be ?
I mean, Tac Skills all have 30 secs cooldown (which is halved with A2B build) ... and cooldown cannot go down 15s (that's why one usually goes for 2 copies of each skill), so why wasting points there ?
Also why wasting a lot of points to get that ultimate skill which, not gonna lie, I don't really like: 1.30 cooldown for a +20% weapon cycle haste ... it's not that much I think
These are my doubts
Based upon advice I've been given from a variety of very good players that seem to work for me a ship's performance isn't based upon how many Lobi consoles you have or dollars spent but via good piloting and a few other things -
- Skill tree. The "all purpose / general purpose" skill tree I used to use was giving me very general purpose results. The 27 point tac ultimate tree is more than malleable enough to provide great results from energy only to full science and seems to allow for much more damage and bite in a build.
- Bridge Officer ability cooldowns. A lot of my builds weren't paying enough attention to this and the result was markedly decreased performance. No matter what combination of traits, active duty officers, and bridge officer abilities are used this is a really important part of any build.
- Keybinds. I was very stubborn in my outlook that clicking on boff abilities was serving me well. It only took a week or so after setting up a basic tactical rotation keybind that allowed the sequential activation of often used abilities for me to realize that this was taking up the majority of my attention span. The increase in efficiency brings much added pleasure as well as vastly increased performance. There was so much more time to take care of things instead of trying to click on the same 5-8 keys over and over again. Simple keybinds instructional video.
Coolest thing about combining the above three items is that over time the benefits just don't add up but actually multiply.Why do I use both CRF and CSV - there's nothing wrong with just using CSV as it's multi-target. I have ships that use CSV only. Why both? If I'm doing an advanced TFO that has opponents with feedback pulse (i.e. Terrans) CSV it'll have me reducing my fire to wait it out or risk blowing up. With CRF I can focus fire on the single targets that don't have FBP up. Can also use it to manage threat. Sure it could be used for something else like beam overload but simply put the combination is just what works best for me.
No set bonuses - there's quite a few set bonuses mentioned there. I use them whenever I can and as many as I can. There may not be as many available for anti-proton. Am usually using phaser, disruptor, or polaron myself. One of the biggest set bonuses mentioned is the 2 piece Discovery shield and core.
Tac ultimate doubts - it's an end-game skill tree that seems to maximize the amount of damage I can do as well as helping the rest of the team with all 3 coordination protocols (they stack for each player that has them) as well as unlocking all 3 frenzied reactions. I find hitting the magic red button with others on team focusing fire on a large target to be very powerful.
Sure, it's entirely possible to get away with a few points less in tactical but to be entirely honest at this point I'd be hard pressed to find better options for those skill points. Looking at my stats in non-sector space I'd also be hard pressed to find an area in my spec that I'm short on and I certainly don't feel squishy in any way. My power levels are great.
I use a similar 27 point tac ultimate skill tree for my science ships and mixed builds.
I don't characterize any of the 27 point tac ultimate skill points as a waste given what I'm getting in return. It's meant to be nothing more than a suggestion and is currently what works best for me as somebody who focuses primarily on advanced or better gameplay.
Also - if it matters, I'm not recommending the 27 point tac ult skill tree from the perspective of somebody that has a lot of fancy gear and expensive starships and traits to "make it work" because all I really have is a good selection of storyline and reputation gear as well as a few c-store ships. Nothing fancy at all
Already have 5 sup. operatives.
I use sustained protomatter (10% cost reduction on weapons, +5/10 power levels in SHI, ENG and AUX)
I should have plasma-infused too in bank.
As for set, I run 3pcs Iconian (Shield, Engines, Deflector).
My DHCs are aldready [CrtD]x3 [CrtH/CrtD] [Pen]
still I don't seem to deal enough damage in elite ...
I can switch the torpedo launcher with a fourth DHC (identical to the other 3).
I was also a skeptic about a variety of things until more recently. My skill tree looked very similar to yours 4-5 years ago on your last posted build.
There's nothing wrong with the bridge officer setup there. Two copies of each tactical skill works great, with damage control engineers to take care of emergency power cooldown.
The usual convention these days for selecting cannon skills and attack patterns is highest cannon skill (hits more targets) with a lower version of an attack pattern. That's a minor change.
Some players might prefer Aux2Sif versus reverse shield polarity without a way to get RSP cooled down quicker than it's lengthy 2 minute cooldown. Aux2Sif offers a nice damage resist increase.
Lot's of people like a gravity well as their LtC science boff ability myself included. It can be a lot of fun. The difference between 2017 and now is that photonic officer has been greatly improved with PO2 now being about good enough to use on it's own for cooldowns. With a single copy of A2B it's pretty well perfect.
As far as skill trees and other things what else has changed since 2017 ?
Emergency power to engines instead of EP to shields is really popular now due to the emergency conn hologram from a phoenix token. Mobility helps a lot. Competitive engines are popular for this reason as well. The type that procs off of heals seems to be more popular and predictable for a lot of players.
The Embassy plasma consoles are no longer of any use at all so there's no longer much of a need to spec fully into drain to assist them. You can grab enough of this in your deflector usually. Just a little is fine. There's a tactical node below the skill tree that takes care of threat reduction as long as threatening stance is left off.
EPS is still dps but not quite to the same extent. The amount of EPS in your spec using 2 (both) points combined with some weapons cost reduction elsewhere is usually fine. Often when choosing a singularity core there's a type with some weapons cost reduction (not EPS) built in that's a good choice. Your crafted engineering console with EPS is no longer a must slot.
Using a gravity well to just to gather targets up (versus doing exotic damage as on a science ship) might not need the third point into control amplification, it's more of a science ship thing. Interestingly enough there's a 27 point tac ultimate variation with 2 points into control expertise should it be needed, but often a single point can suffice in combination with other sources. A gravity well can be fun but as a secondary effect isn't adding anything to the amount of damage that's being done. For this you'd need some EPG and it may be a role best left to science ships imho.
For shield hardness 1-2 points is usually enough.
I think your skill tree power points are perfect... 2 captain skill points along with 2 admiral (warp core potential and efficiency). Ditto for using all 3 long range targeting sensors points.
The number of skill tree points put into resists is always going to be a personal preference. I'm not a tank so find a single point is sufficient. On the cruisers at least the rest is taken care of with the ship's mastery package (+25). It's one of those areas that could perhaps be characterized as possibly trying to increase a build's sturdiness versus increasing the amount of damage done... which works better?
The way in which our skill trees were very similar (aside from being science heavy) back in the day is the amount of skill tree points allocated to the very first row. Two points to each of the lieutenant skills used to be very common. Now it's something perhaps seen in a support build. Taking a look at one Lt skill point versus 2 from left to right...
Hull Restoration - there's a space trait for this that everybody gets called Techie that adds +20. That's almost the same amount as the second point which gives +35. Your current deflector adds +26.2. That's a lot when added up. Not sure if 2 points are needed here.
Hull Capacity - this is one area that could merit a second point. Check out the space reputation trait Tyler's Duality. It gives additional CrtH for hull capacity and works very well. There's also an engineering node below the skill tree that gives +10.
Shield Restoration - a single point can help with something like reverse shield polarity. Your current deflector adds +35 so you already have the equivalent of 2 full points here even if using 1 point in your skill tree. One point is usually more than sufficient.
Shield Capacity - Intel primary Strategist secondary is a commonly used specialization combo these days. Strategist is giving me +10% maximum shield capacity. On a non-A2B build one of the best consoles around is a Temporal Disentanglement Suite science console. It gives another 20% max shield cap. The extra CrtH/D is superb.
There's a genetic resequencer called Inspirational Leader available that at 3 stacks in combat will add +30 to most skills.
There's storyline consoles that give lot's of the good stuff above that work well as standalone consoles.
For me the one lieutenant skill point versus two came down to finding/recognizing other available sources and testing things out over time to see if it really did make much of a difference as compared to reallocating some of those points into tactical where they do more damage. The same applies to the extra science skills. Some of the savings outlined above is where the extra points into tactical come from without any negative opportunity cost.
For me at least the extra damage versus extra tank seems to pay off. Even when leveling a character. Especially on an all cannon build.
Some of the really nice things we have today that we didn't used to have would be a fleet colony intervention deflector with EPS and Drain expertise and the colocrit modifier. Combine that with a Discovery reputation shield and core for a 2 piece that gives yet more hull capacity, increased shield damage, and a huge increase in hull regeneration that makes ships feel considerably more tanky than they used to.
Given the gear available today from both the storyline and reputation I think a skill tree like the tactical template is more viable than ever.
Adding a 4th DHC would really help. Perhaps replace the cutting beam with another turret and update your deflector-engine-core-shield space set when you can.
Replace the embassy consoles which unfortunately no longer work.
Aside from that there's nothing more I can suggest aside from adding damage.
^ These 3 items already covered and can more than double damage.
Drop GW1 - it's not doing any damage. Focus on the directed energy weapon damage of your cannons in advanced or better game play.
Could replace with PO2 and fit in a Lt. science boff skill with an EPG related skill i.e. Delayed Overload Cascade or Very Cold in Space (see STO-League link above).
Anything antiproton related. Colony deflector + 2 piece Discovery Core and Shield or Colony deflector + anything for it's colocrit. Temporal Disentanglement Suite from storyline if not using A2B. Valdore console ? <-- think this is pretty cheap now 75K dilithium.
^ as listed in the STO-League link above. If even a couple of genetic resequencers are within budget they can be very helpful.
Add the Withering Barrage trait when you can to go with your emergency weapon cycle. An extra 4 seconds makes a big difference.
I rearranged the torpedo in the last slot, as you said and yes: it is a nice improvement.
I'm not sure I want to keep it tho: I mean, it's cool, but I doesn't have that raw shearing power I expected ... I remember, LONG time ago with a Fed character I used to have a Elite Fleet Quantum Torpedo Mk XII and it did like 100k dmg criticals with High Yield 3 ...
And it wasn't even buffed by consoles like this one.
Ok, I'm using Scatter Volley now, but the best crit I've seen is 24k ... 1/4 damage !
I mean, I have 5 antiproton consoles buffing it now !
It should be more effective than this... if it's this bad, maybe a fourh DHC is better !
as for Re-Engineering, I would do it for last. Also, it's not that big improvement as fas as I understood.
As for Deflector and Set ... ok, I'm working on it.
Same for 6th Antiproton Console.
It might be that an extra cannon up front firing and getting buffed almost all the time does more damage than a torpedo that only fires and gets a firing mode buff some of the time.
The borg cutting beam isn't doing anything much and doesn't benefit from cannon firing mode skills. It's proc isn't something that's too useful these days.
A lot of people discarded their Embassy plasma consoles after they were adjusted which would leave 3 console slots available for new additions. I'd keep the assimilated module for it's CrtH and add the Temporal disentanglement suite (from storyline) for even more CrtH and other good stuff.
Changing the Gravity Well 1 to something else would free up a fourth science console.
Loadouts can come in really handy. One thing they can be good for is keeping a "canon" loadout that provides for more thematic fun and then another loadout for doing more damage in advanced or better gameplay. It might be time to change up a few things and experiment versus focusing on how things used to work. Loadouts can help with quick comparisons.
If you do go for an experimental upgrade on your ship the Discovery reputation console Lorca's Custom Fire Controls would be a decent choice.
Think you'll be amazed after changing up your deflector and space set. More damage + more survivability is great.
The numbers used in discussing skill tree point allocations above were based on a Mark 12 Sol defense set deflector per your previously posted build on the STOAcademy skill planner but wouldn't be much different for the Iconian deflector.
One way to try a different skill tree and build is to transfer a copy of a character to the Tribble test server. Lot's of everything needed is available at Drozana station. It's now possible to hop into an advanced or better patrol with a set of guilded reputation gear (they supply the upgrades). If you need fleet gear on Tribble message me for an invite.
The starships I'm using with cannons include the Morrigu, Arbiter, Temer Alliance Raider, Jem'Hadar Vanguard Warship, and more recently the Gagarin.
For me most seem to do best with a fully buffed set of cannons front and turrets rear or in other words focusing on pure directed energy weapon damage combined with incorporating many of the principles linked or outlined above.
Parsed damage from the characters I've focused on is at 120K (beam engineer) and 133K (cannon tac in a Temer Raider) in advanced game play. The Gagarin should be good for more. Both these numbers seem to be going up gradually with practice.
From the perspective of a casual player the fact that I'm now only limited by my own piloting and that the same characters were doing about 20-30K before focusing on them really highlights how well some of the suggested principles work and how various small improvements can begin to not only add up but multiply.
Trying different things is part of the fun.
It might make more sense if the torpedo related firing mode were kept closer to global (cooldowns) or if the torpedo was part of a set with complimentary pieces or effects and also part of a larger picture in the build (i.e. Entwined Tactical Matrices + Supercharged Weapons) but even these make more sense on a 8 gun cruiser.
With 4-5 empty slots potentially available was thinking of assimilated module + temporal disentanglement suite + lorca console + voth phase decoy or crystalline absorption matrix or polymorphic probe array + something like the Valdore console as they're all relatively easy to obtain.
Combine some of these with other improvements mentioned above and the ship should be in good shape for advanced or better gameplay.
There's a few pieces and ways of doing things that may have to be left behind for gains to be realized.
Took the ship through The Ninth Rule patrol on advanced difficulty and managed to defeat the respawning end mob in it's entirety which is usually a good sign a ship is working well. The Valdore Console really helps to keep shields up. This is a nice Romulan Warbird.

==============================================================================
The original idea was to use GW to concentrate many enemies in a closed area and bomb them with CSW, KLW and Radiant Detonation Matrix, while Embassy Consoles buffed the GW and added some cool DOT effect to CSW.
Of course is pointless now, since I switch GW for PO and since I'm Running A2B Build.
Omega Graviton Amplifier is cause I didn't find anything better.
Same for Chrono-Buffer Array.
==============================================================================
I posted this to ask what should I try to get now: to be honest ... I don't really like Voth Probe Consoles.
I don't like Universal Consoles at all, actually: it's disgusting (to me, at least) the idea of having a console that can fit everywhere ... it makes the Ship's Consoles Configurations pointless.
Also, I don't like the idea of wasting a Console Slot just for 1 bonus that consoles gives: that's why I don't like to keep Assimilated Module if I remove Kintic Cutting Beam.
Also, I came to like KCB ... it deals nice damage to targets. But of course I'm ok removing it, if it's pointless.
For f***'s sake !
BTW I did most of the things you said.
I tried 4x DHCs but I don't really like it, so I switched back to 3x DHCs + 1x Torpedo.
Considering this, which Specializations should I choose ?
1st is Pilot for sure (completed)
2nd ... ?
I was thinking about Command (due to that Torpedo Expose thing) but also Stategist seems cool (even tho I have few healing abilities).
When I had 4x Embassy Consoles I used to have Temporal, but now it seems useless.
I use Intel primary Strategist secondary on most of my toons aside from those flying a science ship who use Temporal primary.
Pilot is something I left behind a little after Delta Rising for the most part.
Strategist seems to be about more than just being useful in conjunction with healing abilities. Show of Force + Attrition Warfare + Maneuver Warfare can give +20% CrtD +15% Bonus Damage and +20% hull & shield regen just by leaving threatening stance off.
Combined with other good stuff (i.e. torpedo immunities) and the increase in shield capacity Strategist seems to be a decent choice for a secondary specialization.
Believe it or not, when I run 3x DHCs + Torpedo it happens all the times.
Anything gets vanished before torpedoes can impact.
When I run 4x DHCs it doesn't happen and it takes 2/3 rounds to blow up enemies, especial tougher ships (such as Negh'Var in the new TFO).
So you say I should go Strategist for second ?
If the bad guys are getting killed faster using 3 DHC's than with 4 that's not making sense to me. They process should be faster with more forward facing main weapons. How is your weapons power level? Are you running the attack power preset?
Strategist seems to be a good choice for a secondary specialization. I'd give it a try.
Normally with 2 points into EPS on my skill tree, EPtW3 up all the time, the emergency weapons cycle starship trait, and weapons power maxed out or very close to it I seem to be ok even with 5 forward DHC's.
With A2B there's an additional +20 weapons power for 10 seconds and better cool downs so maybe a bit of an advantage there.
Without A2B still seems pretty good aside from when firing CSV and the emergency powers get a bit out of synch (don't quite reach enough cool down). There is a bit of a dip visible when that happens. Maybe a little bit of engineering readiness might be good if using PO2 only on a build.
The reinforced armaments console (storyline reward) is an extra source I sometimes use to fill a console slot with an extra 50% EPS even when not using phasers as it gives hull capacity and restoration as well.
The OP's conductive RCS [EPS] should allow for more than enough power flow if they were to give it a try providing weapons power is close to maxed out.
My power levels are:
Weapons: 125/100
Shields: 46/30
Engines: 36/15
Auxiliary: 22/15
Power Transfer Rate is: 408% (20.04 / sec)
==============================================================================
I keep EPtW1 up every time I start shooting.
Have:
-10% Weapons Power Cost from Sing. Core.
-25% Weapons Power Cost from Valdore+Morrigu sets console (which also give +5 Weapons Power Setting)
and of course -50% every time I use EPtW1.
It shouldn't be the Weapon Power, I think it's just my imagination (or maybe some server lag that makes me believe the enemies are blown up before the torpedoes).
==============================================================================
BTW I wanted to ask another thing:
Do you think Bellum Eng and Sci consoles from Discovery Reputation are good ?
Honestly, I used to love the the Science ones that boost shield capacity, but I think they are not good anymore (but now with that Crit Chance bonus they may be viable again) ...
I just noticed another post vanished ...
Is someone deleting my posts ? Cause if so, I'd totally avoid wasting my time writing...
