Do Doff procs affect carrier pets?

For example, if I had a Doff that causes Tractor Beams to drain shields, would my Danube Runabouts also start draining shields when they use theirs? Or maybe reload their torpedoes faster (with high-quality PWO doffs)?

And while we're on the subject of Doff procs, do Ground Doff procs affect Bridge Officers' abilities? Like, if I have the Doff that can summon extra drones or turrets, will my Engi Boff also start summoning double drones/turrets, or for some reason teleport in their own pet medic to help them use hypos :P

    Ground DOFFs definitely effect BOFFs. I usually have a bonus turret from both my Engineer and my Engineer BOFF. Also any boff can trigger the doctor or nurse (not sure which) giving you the bonus healer when you use a Hypo.

    Can't say for sure about space and pets.
    I was once DKnight1000, apparently I had taken my own name so now I'm DKnight0001. :confused:
    If I ask you a question it is not an insult but a genuine attempt to understand why.
    When I insult you I won't be discreet about it, I will be precise and to the point stupid.

    Cool on the Ground Doffs. I was always wondering as to the usefulness of having the "procs whenever Sci Kit debuffs are applied" Doff when I was an Engineer. "I'm sure laying deadly mine barriers mines is a science, too!" I'd think.

    And it would be pretty funny to see the bonus healer proc on my Bridge Officer in the heat of battle.

    Me: "Shields dow- Number One, what are you doing and who is that blue-suited ensign?"

    #1: "B-but Captain, I'm scared of needles! I need someone to hold my hand!"

    No. Duty officers only affect powers that come from you and your abilities. Space pets are not you.

    As far as I'm aware the only doffs that effect carrier pets are flightdeck officers, but the ones that offer extra turrets for ground do work on boffs, I've seen my first officer drop a set of 3 phaser turrets before on ground missions, not sure about the medic proc I don't think I've seen that one on a boff, but then I don't usually give them hypos cos they just shoot the things off the instant they get so much as a grazed knee! I give them tribbles.
