Remove Borg cubes from star cluster missions

Soloing cubes just feels lame. Please remove the cubes as the "boss" from star cluster missions and replace it with a tougher sphere or something.

i have to agree its never seems right takeing out a cub on your own

You are both looking at it wrong! The question should be: "can the cubes instead be upgraded to Elite STF Tac Cubes please?". Not soloable by 99% of the playerbase, a more than adequate challenge for anyone, and most players will die to it over and over; thus providing that "epic" feel! Heck! We might get lucky and people will actually see what they should prepare to really fight! It'd be a WIN all around!
The star cluster missions are supposed to be soloable, so adding something that isnt soloable is not the solution.

Upping the difficulty of the Cubes is fine, but what you're asking for is simply not a good idea. Normal STF Tac Cubes are an annoyance to a full well equipped team, and you want Elite STF Tac Cubes added to clusters? No... just no...
you have mission difficulty for that
i think the point me and the OP are trying to make its seems far fetched takeing out a cub on your own

^^This is your challenge - you want them harder, then play on elite.
I do, and they are still easily soloable.
you forgot i said it seem far fetched not that i want them harder

Normal stf tac cubes are soloable by a decent build ship, even science. Or especially science ? Have to figure that out.
not sure about elite bosses in star clusters mind , just saying , borg adapt
Well, if the Voyager, a science ship, by itself, took out 2 cubes in 7 years, and STF Tactical Cubes should be solo able by a science ship, then STO science RSVs, DSSVs, and LRSV need a serious buff. That doesn't happen in STO. The sheer mass of a cube of any kind, along with their regenerative ability should require a number of Fed or KDF ships to take them down. Borg cube tactics are to disable, tractor, and assimilate by transporting tactical Borg onto the disabled ship and engaging crew. They don't do this now, but should. There is your difficulty factor answer.

i may have missed some, my mind has gone blank, but cubes can be destroyed if you can outwit the borg, starfleet phasers and photon torpedoes have always proven ineffective against borg ships bigger then a sphere or higher, so out thinking them is a requirement.
That's why I said "annoyance". :P
But not everyone has a decent built ship. Alot people will not have, or are still working on, getting decent weapons, and, which would make a STF Tact Cube a serious frustration.
