science just get a new station power out of nowhere on tribble. from LT to COM, it turns aux power and particle gens into physical damage, so strait to hull, that debuffs weapons and damage resistance, and bounces to other targets. chain lightning literally added to STO.
science is now the 3rd DPS class, gone are the days of force multipliers, healers, control, its all just DPS baby. not to mention all the DPS obsessed will have a new sci FAW to play with, LTC+ sci just got even more powerful. i KNEW the SS change was too good to be true, 1 step forward, 2 steps back, ALWAYS. development decisions don't for a moment consider pvp, this power is supposed exists to get pve'ers to buy sci ships, and for sci ships to not be so unoptimized for pve, ESPECIALLY solo.
wonder if tac and eng are gonna get something next.

Is it AOE dmg yes... its it more powerful then current TBR ? Can't say right now... 3km is pretty small so you will have to combo it with GW... running GW + TBR + Resonanse is going to be painful for most setups. If they fix BS like the BH Set that allows science ships the easiest path to everything at global this might not be bad.
As long as that set exists this skill will be nasty... cause that set makes it easy to run 1 TBR as 2 and GW at global... and it will make what ever the cool down is on this skill a joke as well.
If this skill is a 45-60s cool down its likely not so bad.
Oh and Sci was always always the second DPS class. Engi has been pointless pretty much since 2011.
If you add a doffed TB3 and a iso cannon then it sounds interesting.

Debuff class = science
QQ Class = science
Id have to say (without being able to test the ability in PVP) that this ability alone is not more powerful than TBR in the equivalent stations (looking at the numbers). The Damage resistance (assuming you can keep it on your target for the full 10 sec) sounds like fun. Makes me wonder if the damage rez is just for the sci ship doing the shooting or allows all players to fire on the same ship with a -50 rez (isnt that kinda like what the armor pen trait was doing>)

Oh wait I don't play anymore.
How could I forget.
*returns to BF4*
it wouldnt be that bad if it shared a cooldown with TBR and couldn't be used at the same time, but we all know thats not going to be the case.
NAILED IT!
I have my doubts about being usable with TBR, even without sharing cooldowns. Because TBR pull will tend to pull the target out of the 135 fore arc, meaning that this would never reach full duration. You could probably chain them back to back, but even then you're looking at those snazzy pilot boff abilities, which means keeping targets in arc will be even tougher.
