Doffs are better used for other things, rather then giving you an extra useless ensign slot.
Well, these doffs *do* give an extra +10 buff to attack patterns too, so they're not wasted.
On the whole, though, the situation with the Ensign Tact stations sucks a bit, as you can't put much other useful in there, other than TT1, that does not share the same cooldown.
Actually, the Conn doffs freeying up a tac station works out if you also want to fit in the Rainbow DBBs with a BO. Another option is to use 2 cannon boffs to free up a lt. tac power but then you can't depend on it working.
Careful fellow players I have my suspicions there are paid posters/pumpers out there trying to get people to buy into the lock-box/lobi thing
Things to watch out for in a paid pumper:
Only a few posts on their account
Extremely positive
Asking for advice but having a pretty good set-up already - trying to make it look fantastic
Thing is this - you get about 5 Lobi per box on avg - that's it!! so use this in your figures when you take the cost of the lobi store stuff into account
Where do you sign up??? im doing some of that already without getting paid...
I use 2x Hamlet Tac Team buff DOffs to get away with 1x Tac Team 1.
You can switch CSV with APB if you want APB3.
I use the 2 cardie doffs to reduce the recharge time between my APO3 + APD1, so I can run both contiguously. On top of that I put the Hamlet you have, for the extra +10 to attack patterns. Totally rules!

In PVE I do 5100-5600 Dps in the Avanced combat tracker with the latest STO PVE plugin
In PVp i do 2200-3000 dps in the Advanced Combat Tracker with the laest PVP plugin which reads differently than the PVe plugin since I guess Pvp space isn't considered regular combat space. I do the 5100-5600 in pvp using the Pve plugin still.

If your spending 90+m on a ship or $120+ then surely u can afford a few conn officers?
