Hi
I have managed to get to level 24 as a Romulan Tactician and feel very underpowered when compared to my Klingon and Fed officers of the same class.

I am using this ship http://images-cdn.perfectworld.com/www/pictures/1366830007130.jpg with decent blue/purple weapons and devices. Yet the enemies seem to take a lot longer to kill or end up blowing me up. I use battle cloak as well. Also is this the correct ship for a tactical officer its not as nimble as the other two race combat ships.

Earlier today i went against a borg invasion and although there were other players there the Borg cube took great pleasure in destroying me each time I got close to it. All its attacks seemed to single me out of about 6 to 10 other players.

What space skills do you suggest as I level up ?

    You may be feeling the sting of the naturally low power levels on all warbirds. Could you provide more information about your BOff layout and specific ship build?
    Forget the possibility of PvP, for so much has become pay-to-win, never to be balanced. Forget the promise of exploration and research, for in the grim dark future of Star Trek Online there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting publishers.

    We would need to know your actual setup (including any space traits on your bridge officers: all Romulan/Reman crew makes your decloak bonus amazing). All warbirds are capable vessels when set up correctly, but due to their design, require slightly different tactics and setup than their Fed or KDF counterparts.

    Flying the D'Drexi (sp) now that turns like a brick stuck in mud. Not sure if to go beams on all weapon hardpoints along with a torpedo launcher on bow and aft. I suppose one heavy dual cannon on the bow would help with the alpha strike from cloak though.

    The ship just has its standard afair of basic weapons for now till I get the materials needed to make better.

    What I did with a D'deridex was replay the missions that give me the RCS Console, Plasma Injector and Plasma-Disruptor Hybrid Beam Arrays. You get a good set of equipment and allows you to practice fighting with the D'deridex.

    EDIT: I made a boo-boo with the Plasma-Disruptor Hybrid Beam Arrays, but since the Tal Shiar Tachyon Deflector Dish is included in Smash and Grab, better replay it anyway.
