Question about "Power"

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
Is there someplace to see what my current Emergancy power and Aux power is?

What skills actually use Aux power, and what is the point of it?

Thanks.

    'Emergency power' is just a term for boosting whatever system is getting the emergency power. It's not coming from anywhere and it's really just a buff to that power system.

    Auxiliary power is the right-most power slide on the power display. It feeds just about any Science skill, such as Jam Sensors, Tyken's Rift, gravity well, tachyon beam, and that sort of thing. I think it covers Emitters, Deflectors, and Sensors. Basically, if your dish shoots it, Aux power gives it juice.

    Basically, Auxiliaries aboard a modern ship are anything other than things that make the ship go, keep the ship from sinking, or shoot other ships.

    Auxiliary power makes us go. :p

    Aux also helps with turn rate.

    So, if I'm an assualt Crusier with the following build:

    http://sto-builder.binarybit.ch/index.php?s=2_99999c4l9903291c9091215c99439709195650449173c905zh993520521c102_2_0-12-30--_1-82---_2-64-43-37-1_3-67-36-91-_4-27-56--@0

    The Emergancy power to Aux really is not of any help? (cause I'm not sure how I use it, and there are not alot of skills in game I really "like").

    I plan on making some changes to my build when the respec hits, but I'm not sure what I'll change BO wise and E2A seems like a logical thing to change if I'm not using Aux....

    Perhaps Aux powers tractor beam?
