I am a sci VA and the Ambassador class is my all time favorite ship. I saved my credits and finally got the Yamaguci class. I was hoping for some help with a build for a sci va.

What BO skills would you guys suggest? I would like to be support based but not a healer.

    A suggested build:

    Tact ensign: tactical Team 1.
    Lt. tactical: Fire at Will 1 & 2.
    Cmd. Engineer: Engineering team 1, Emergency Power to weapons 2, Emergency Power to Shields 3, Eject Warp plasma 3.
    Lt.Cmd. Science: Polarize Hull 1, Hazard Emitter 2, Gravity well 1.

    The universal is open to your own choosing some possibilities are:

    Science: Transfer Shield Strength 1, Energy Siphon 1.
    Tact: Torpedo Spread or High Yield 1 & 2.
    Engineer: can be either dps related with Emergency Power to Aux 1, Aux to Batt 1
    or more support/heal Emergency Power to Aux 1, Aux to Structural Integrity 1.

    You could switch gravity well for energy siphon 2 and Eject warp plasma for either extend shields or reverse shield polarity.

    Suggested build, slightly modified from my own build.

    Lt. Tactical: TT 1, Attack Pattern Delta 1
    Ensign Tactical: FAW1

    Lt. Commander Science: HE1, TSS2, GW1

    Commander Engineering: ET1, EPtS2, EWP1, AUX2SIF3

    Lt. Universal (Engineer): EPtA1, EPtS2

    Doffs:
    2 or 3 Conn Officers to reduce TT cooldown.
    1 Gravimetric Scientist with GW Aftershocks
    1 Sensor Officer (for Sci Captains)
    1+ Adak'Ukan for increased Threat Generation with APD

    Consoles:
    1 or 2 Threat-Scaling Science consoles from the embassy (Emitter Array and Graviton Generator being good choices) with [+Th] [Pla]


    Deflector: M.A.C.O.
    Engines: M.A.C.O. or Adapted M.A.C.O.

    I do mostly PVE. I have all Mark XI purple phasers with 1 quantum in the fore. I have the maco mark XI shield, with the jem hadar engine and deflector. I have the borg console as well. Its a bit of a mish mash right now. What equipment would you suggest I upgrade asap?

    For pve:

    Lt. Tactical: TT 1, Attack Pattern Delta 1 (Beta is also good for pve)
    Ensign Tactical: FAW1

    Lt. Commander Science: PH1, HE2, GW1

    Commander Engineering: EPtW1, AUX2SIF1, EPtS3, ExS3

    You can use the Un. Lt. as a sci : TSS1, you can use Energy Siphon or something else.

    I will advise you to go all single beams, with Cutting beam aft. (broad side firepower)

    Omega XII Deflector and Engines. MACO shields

    Doffs (must)
    1 purple and 1 blue Con for TT (16 sec) is ok
    1 purple or 1 blue for GW aftershock
    1 purple or 1 blue for a chance improve power level
    1 sensor or for energy siphon or brace for impact

    Consoles
    Eng:
    2 armor purple/blue XI (energy and kinetic resistance)
    Borg module
    Theta Radiation is good or the Romulan console
    Sci:
    Field Generator to increase shield capacity. If you can have access to embassy 2 particle generators, 1 hull and 1 shield.
    Tac:
    3 consoles of what weapon you are using

    For pve purposes I would suggest Disruptor beams. Note all single for broad power.

    power levels:
    weapons 100
    shield what remains
    Engines: 25
    AUX: 25

    Do not worry for the low AUX. In your skill tree try to assign at least 6 points to all power related abilities. Shields and AUX ideally for a sci captain should be 9.
    Also Red Matter device, Aux and Weapons batteries.
