Which cannon weapon type to focus on?

Hi all,

I'm a tactical commander in an escort and I'm using cannons. I see that I'm now getting skills available which let me specialize in a specific cannon weapon type: disruptor, telryon, plasma, antiproton, polaron, ...

Is there any preference as to which weapon type I should specialize in? Once I get Admiral will all types of cannon weapons be available or just selected (e.g., polaron) ones?

The same question goes for torpedo launchers: I see photon, quantum, transphasic, plasma skills available. Is there any preference in which I should specialize?

Many thanks for any hints!

    yea also a little undecided aswell..

    I know the details about each weapon/torp but will there be limited choices with the top tier ship and purp/blue drops?.. im almost at the point where i have to put some points into these trees as the options are getting limited..

    If you use two, use Dual.

    If you use three, use Dual Heavies.

    This is the general consensus of the majority of Tactical Officers. It has to do with global cooldown and fire rates of each type.

    I enjoy the effect and dmg the disruptor/tetryon cannon combo gives.
