Fun DPS Engineer Build

I will be posting this build on Reddit STObuilds (tomorrow) with an explanation of my build. I'm having a great time with it and wanted to share. The Krenim Imperium Warship is pretty nice!!

skillplanner.stoacademy.com/?build=dpsengineerbuild_0

The STO Academy link should have my ship, skills, specilizations, and traits. Reddit will also contain my DOFF, BOFF, and other settings.

A lot of people like AP & beams, but I enjoy the disruptor DR debuff (entire build built around it - helping me and the team) and the burst dps from cannons is just plain fun to watch tearing through an enemy's shields/hull.

More info coming tomorrow...

    How long did it take you to upgrade your gear to Mark fourteen? Also how long did it take you to get them to go epic

    I was away from the game for a couple of years so I was way behind on everything in the game. So I spent some $$ on the game. I would buy zen and then sell the promo boxes/keys for a good chunk of EC and I also exchanged zen for dil. I bought most stuff already at Mk XIV Very Rare/ultra rare with the mods I was looking for. Overall it took me a few days to get everything upgraded to epic. This was after I spent weeks of researching the forums, youtube, and chat.

    I actually spent a LOT of $$ on the game. Let's just say I'm not the luckiest person around and MANY of my Epic upgrades wouldn't "pop" until the item was 25-40%. That's a LOT of DIL!! Hopefully you are luckier!

    Where did you get those tactical epic consoles?

    You mean Vulnerability Locator consoles? They are from T3 Fleet Spire. You buy them Mk XII, and upgrade.​​

    Upgrading the Mk level is pretty easy and not too expensive. It's getting them to "pop" to the next rarity level that's the pain...
