Tank/DPS Scimitar Build

For those of you who seem to think that the Scimitar is squishy and cannot tank, please take a look at the build I have made here:
http://skillplanner.stoacademy.com/?build=ktahsscimitar_2438
I cannot stress enough that I see people hating on the Scimitar and it's lack of survivability. And that any survivability comes at the cost of DPS. This build is my own personal build and has been thoroughly tested. Other Scimitar's blow up while mine keeps right on going. Recent logs from the Advanced Combat Tracker has shown an ENC Dps upwards of 6,000 or more with a total damage output of around 6 mil in Khitomer Vortex Elite (not doing probe duty). I understand this build is expensive, but trust me...you'll be happier in the end. I promise.

wait. WHAT?
woah, unbelieveable

Really? If you have a way of beefing the DPS, I'm all ears lol
Marion Doff/3 Purple Tech Doffs and a beam coolddown doff. I just saw one in Kithomer take out one whole side gate/both cubes and both transformers before the other 4 of use got one transformer down.
That's rather impressive. So you're suggesting a Aux2Batt build basically?
I would like to add though that my Scimitar can do the same, I mean not as quickly, but I can usually have the gate started on or killed by the time the other side finishes.

Holy frick...:P
watch the video the person filming is using AP beams but his team is using Romulan plasma. see how they are all spamming APB and FAW with A2B. yes they are expensive but you can do the doff chain in the B'tran nebula to get them free.
And another steps into the light...

I guess the bliss is now fading, since everyone pretty much enlightened you, how low that dps is.
if you have sub 15k DPS in a scimi, you are just doing something wrong

Edit: And that's what my build in this post is all about.
CUUCUUMBEER! "-With slight partigen with it."
Proud member or DPS-800 "-We kill dem mines with our scitter turrets."
End of the day though, go with what you're comfortable with.
Biggest issue I still have is by the end of any match, all my crew are dead!! Bunch of lightweights if you ask me :cool:
Beta player - forum knows jack as to when I started

For purple 30 mil, for blue 6-7 mil, it is not big difference. I had blue and now i have purple, so trust me.
My scimitar have 5 tac consoles, and i think all the passives from reputation and skill points are offensive based.
I just let the gate on elite sft to fire at me just for fun, and stand still whole the time at couple of KM distance. I cant die.
There is no need to tank scimitar with consoles, just keep redistributing shields and use TT.
