Vor'cha-R build

Hello everyone,
I was looking to make some adjustments to my klink engineer and wanted some advice or suggestions on builds. I am flying him in a Vor'cha-R and have been using beams until now, I would like to switch to DHCs/Turrets.
A few of questions came up as I was planning out the skills for my BOffs.
1) How viable is the DHCs/Turrets setup on the Vor'cha-R?
2) I was thinking about taking the aux2batt build I currently have on my fed cruiser and adapting it to the Vor'cha-R (switching out beam skills for cannon of course). Would this work well on the Vor'cha-R?
3) Lastly what DOffs should I be using? If aux2batt works I may just use the same type I am on my fed cruiser.
Thanks in advance!

All versions of the Vorcha work great with DHC/Turrets. You shouldn't have any issues at all on that one.
As for which doffs to use, if you go a2b, after those are stationed, well you can't really go wrong with BFI guys, in my opinion.

I'm sure your DPS is great, but as Kahless said, "a petaQ with high system mastery is still a petaQ." (Well, he should have said it...!)
TT1 CSV1 ApO1
TS1 BO2
EPTS1 A2D1 A2B2 DEM3
EPT(A or W)
HE1 ST2
(2) DHCs (1) DBB (1) TORP
(4) TURRETS
(3) Tech doffs
(1) WCE doff
(1) EVM doff
On my Tac.
R.I.P
The fleet Vorcha can work with two A2B but it will be very weak defensively. Excellent power turn around though.

Fair enough; I haven't had the opportunity to try a Florcha for myself yet. I'm strongly considering getting one for my Tac, though, so your build posted above is certainly some food for thought. Thanks!

I have since switched her over to DHCs and turrets with a dual aux2batt setup.
Current build below:
TT1 CRF1
TS1
EPTW1 RSP1 EPTS3 DEM3
ET1 A2B1 A2B2
HE1 TSS2
(3) DHCs (1) TORP
(4) TURRETS
(3) Tech doffs
(1) WCE doff
(1) EVM doff
Thanks again for the advice/help!
Shield Distribution Officers, which I've seen called "BFIs" on account of the buff they give to Brace For Impact (proc of a shield heal when you're hit while BFI is active; check the wiki for more detail).

Thanks, after I posted my reply a lightbulb went off over my head and I figured that's what you were referring to :P
(concieved for tactical but should as well work for engineers)
deflector, impulse drive, shields:
assimilated borg set
forward armament:
1xDual Plasma Beam Bank (for target shield subsystems frontal arc)
3xPlasma Dual Heavy Cannons
rear armament:
1xPlasma Beam Array (for target shield subsystems rear arc)
2xPlasma Turret
1xChroniton Torpedo Launcher (speed debuff)
engineering consoles:
1xImpulse Capacitance Cell (universal)
1xPoint Defence System (universal)
2xRCS Accelerator
science consoles:
2xthreat reduction Emitter Array (+plasma damage, obtainable from fleet embassy shuttle hangar)
tactical consoles:

bridge officer setup:
universal station: Tractor Beam I, Polarize Hull II
tactical station 1: Target Shield Subsystems I, Rapid Fire I, Torpedo Spread III
tactical station 2: Tactical Team I, Attack Pattern Beta I
engineering station 1: Emergency Power to Shields I, Reverse Shield Polarity I, Directed Energy Modulation II, Eject Warp Plasma II
engineering station 2: Emergency Power to Engines I
duty officer setup (for ultilizing Brace for Impact as emergency button):
3xShield Distribution Officer
2xHazard System Officer
handling:
Built for shield penetrating surprise attack runs - should the target survive when reaching point-blank range the ship is designed to perform a quick U-turn unleashing a hailstorm of chroniton torpedoes and/or warp plasma. Should the target still have shields the rear plasma beam array can try again to disable the victim's shield systems before firing the torpedo barrage. Should that not be sufficient the ship speeds away using any of EPtE, EM, RAM or ICC. Once sufficient distance is gained the ship is to be turned around and then it usually gets interesting. Trust your instincts - Qapla'
notes:
Due to the abundant selection of "afterburner" abilities it is possible to do high speed attack runs to get in an out of an enemy formation to pick them off one by one. Torpedo Spread III and/or Eject Warp Plasma II can hit a large number of enemies in pursuit and can help to slow them down enough to get the cloak up again to reposition for another attack run.
Torpedo spreads and/or warp plasma can be used defensively to counter projectiles, mines, bording parties and fighter craft. If all fails there is a point defence system, wich can also be used offensively for that little extra damage if neccesary.
This is a tough ship. This is a fast ship. This is a maneuverable ship. This is a heavily armed ship. Its a pleasure to fly and a challenging opponent to face.

Would be interested to see your skill build as well.
I'd meant to ask about this. How often do A2B & A2D run into timer conflict issues?
Thanks,
Gen
