Suggestions for Vesta weapon layout

I've finally started changing my build (has been the same since the vesta was released, and even than all that changed from my previous build was adapting to the aux cannons) with the new dyson set - I've been using MACO stuff forever.

Trouble is, I'm not sure what I want to do with the weapons, I don't want to drop the aux cannons, I don't want to drop the borg weapon set, but the only way to make that work and keep the new proton set is either drop to 1 aux cannon, or put both torps in back (pictured in link) which seems rather stupid.

Help?

(General build advice welcome as well, as I said, it has been rather stagnant - though keep in mind I want it to be high aux gravity well based)

Notes:
Science Dyson Consoles: Shield HP, Grav and Particle generators
Tactical Dyson Console: Phaser damage

I'm using MACO shield and engines while I save up the 1500 marks I need for the Dyson oens

Run with 60 Wep, 20 Shield and Engines, 125 Aux.
83/56/45/125 results after bonuses

Doffs: Deflector Officer (purple) x3 - reduce recharge on gravity well and tyken's rift

Development Lab Scientist (purple) x1 - +10 shield emitters when you use sci team, reduce recharge by 8 sec

Gravimetric Scientist (purple) x1 - chance of aftershock gravity well

    What are you trying to do with this ship? I mean you've got all the gadgets on it, but you're missing a lot of basic boring-but-practical stuff like phaser consoles, or don't know what your shield-refrequencers are. I think your first step is to decide what you want the end result to BE. A torpedo boat? Healer? CC/Cannon platform? I mean the Vesta is an awesomely versatile ship, but it can't be everything at once, and just glancing at your build that seems to be whats hindering you.

    The sci consoles are - grav generators, particle generators, and shield hp

    It does have 1 phaser console on it, just the dyson version.

    The basic idea behind the build as is: Good survivability, gravity well and tyken's rift primary offense, backed up by the aux cannons, since as far as I've seen they are my best bang for the buck with a max aux build, and the runabouts as secondary cc and some dps.
