Maximising my Crit

Hello everyone,

I'm a tac captain flying the Breen/ Fleet Defiant.
I recently respecced and somehow unbeknown to me, my crit level went from 8.9% down to around 5.6% and not too sure why the drop.

What captain skills should i be taking to maximise my crit and hopefully bring it back up to the 9-10% mark.

Thanks

    That displayed 8.9% critical hit rate is based soley on ship equipment if you are getting that number from the ship's attack tab stats while in space. At this time, there are only 3 consoles that can boost critical hit rates:

    1) Borg Assimilated Universal Module (+0.92%)
    2) Tachyokinetic Converter (+0.76%)
    3) Zero Point Energy Conduit (+1.8%)

    Total = 3.48%

    Were these 3 consoles removed from your present build? Or are you only seeing 8.9% crit rate elsewhere?

    The 8.9 was on the ship attach tab section.
    It's funny previously i was running the borg and the tachyo converter, only just recently added the ZPEC.

    But i noticed the drop after respeccing as i felt my spec wasn't quite right for the new ship i have taken on (Fleet Tac Defiant retro).

    It's funny in the Mobius i always had a around the 8% mark on crit. The same weapons have been transferred to the Defiant.

    Also the skills i can see which increase your crit and crit severity are the starship weapons specialisztion, are there any others or is it jjust those two for weapon and projectile?

    Thanks

    Strange question but when you respecced did you check your rep passives as well - they respec when you clear all your skills as well as the normal ones

    As well the new reputation series has a +3% CritH passive for both Ground and Space.
