i was just wondering what people think are the best traits for bridge officers to have VS the borg, i was personally thinking Sure Footed (root resist). but there r prob more?
Well, not just with Borg, but with all enemies I do the following:
1. Half the team (SCI and Eng BOs) carry Expose Weapons, the Tacs carry Exploit Weapons, and I switch between both.
2. Skills that root or push back are good to use against Borg. They walk pretty slow anyway, but root abilities really make them vulnerable to flanking and grenades.
3. Use body armor that either has revenge or push back as well. Since Borg like to swarm in close around you, REV works real well against them, its an AOE ability.
4. If you are lucky enough to have been in Test Server awhile back, you have the Borg Tribble....VERY NICE!!
5. You can get weapons that are specificlly anti-Borg from the merits you gain from completing Infected, The Cure and Khitomer Accord.

Oh you mean species traits....Not sure on that.
Vulcans are very strong, and their melee / martial arts attacks have a good chance for pushback or knockdowns.
Other than that, I could not tell you.
