I have tried to look this stuff up, but i am still confused.
What does Starship emitters, tractors, sensors, deflector dishs, deflector errays do?
I have looked at all my skills and none list any there. So, what do each of these do for me?
Thanks in advance.

that is one I don't know but a good resource is STO wiki you mite be able to find it there.
hehe, many people have viewed this post and not one has an answer.
well most people fight on this forum. you're best but is to go to one of the game play sections, and not general game play. you can get mote help there. also did that website help at all?
I did not see anything there that would help.
I've found 1 dish type that appears to increase the miss chance of enemies (adding to deflector field and ship's deflector dish - why the two of those are seperate values I don't know).
As an escort captain, that's all I've been able to puzzle out about them - there is only one type of dish relevent to my current vessel. If I play through as a Scientist, I hope to learn more (mostly by trial and error I suspect).
well sorry about that.
I believe the Emitters help with the "Hazard Emiiters" skill.
Deflector Dish helps with "Tractor Beam"
And the Sensor Array system helps with "Jam Sensors"
If you hover over the abilities, it will say what system of the ship they use in it's description.
(ie- Hazard Emitters. System:Emitters) etc...
They each buff a different set of special abilities. Like tractors grab, slow, and hold enemy ships (essential to get a shot at pesky Escorts). If you look at the skill tree you will see each skill is associated with a different class of tech device.

They all increase the effectiveness of the skills they're associated with.

That link pretty much covers everything you'll ever need to know about which attribute's associated with what skill.
yeah i agree this is all TRIBBLE, and doesnt nearly give enough information as to what effects what, I still dont know if skilling up my firts ship piloting skills effects my overall piloting skills, despite it saying it improves your ship skills in any ship...
but they was i understand these is this...
sensors help with things like jaming sensors
emittors help with things like tractor beams
deflectors help with things like pol hull etc....
I might have thse slightly wrong as i cant log in and check, but its kinda like this, I think they are all mainly for the science skills....
I'm happy to be corrected ifim wrong tho...
deflector dish/arrays just buff those 3 skills in different ways, 1 might buff 2 skills, or just 1, or maybe all 3...
The first post in this thread explains what stats boost science-y stuff pretty well, and this other one includes a detailed list.
Good luck!
