PvP Weapons and Shields

I'll admit I am a newbie when it comes to PvP. However, I understand we have to play in order to get the Marks of Valor and such so I can beef up my shields. I am a RA5 and all my weapons are Mk X purple. However, I can't seem to do very good against the other players. They seem to kill me within seconds. Some I don't even dent their shields. Any advice to help me boost myself so I am not such a sitting duck?

    what kind of ship are you flying? What is your setup in terms of weapons equipment etc? What kind of powers do your bridge officers have? All must be answered before a real answer to your post can be formulated

    You'll find the perfect PVP builds down the aisle on the shelf next to the I-win buttons.

    Seriously, all jokes aside. Nothing anyone can say here will help you more then simple time, experience, and trial and error. There are to many variables from ship type, captain type, play style, and skill set. For any help to be useful to any specific person.

    You might also find more general help and info available if you looked in the PVP section of the forums.

    Hmmm ... ok. I could list all of what I have, but all my friends I play with have the same problems. I did find out Covariant shields are better to go with ( I had regenerative), and that does seem to help. I guess we will just figure it out as we go along. I sure wish there was a game book that explained all the skills and how they can benefit you, as well as what all the consoles can do. I am still figuring this out.

    You can't seriously expect someone to help you improve your PvP unless you tell them what ship you fly and your captain class.

    If your weaponry is all purple mk X then you will probably need advice on Boff powers and allocation of skill points.
