Can we build turrets?

Yes we can, you may yell, but a couple of things first.

I am talking about crafting and I am talking about turret platforms. The thing you put into your device slot. The old crafting system could make them, but unless I am overlooking something, you cannot make them with the new system.

so, beam platforms, turrets, torpedoes, perhaps more stuff, a platform that heals you, reset your boffs, gives extra power, decoys, whatever. Not from level 15, but from start, so we can do something interesting with crafting at low levels

    You can still acquire the blueprints, or the weapons directly, via doffing.

    The blueprints themselves can be crafted, via the doffing system, under the "Build Prototype" option of your Chief Engineer contact on your starship.​​

    We don't want what the Feds have. We want the equivalent. We want fairer treatment. Concern, desire, greed to some extent, and passionate belief that the enough people would buy KDF items to make it worth Cryptic's while.

    Very much, I see the DOFF missions all the time.

    And the exchange is also flooded wth those turrets, for far less EC than those doff missions require.

    And they're still useless.

    It would be great to be able to get torpedo turrets.

    We can. They're just as useless as the beam ones.

    Well, pretty much this.

    They have almost no hp, do almost no damage and have an overly long cooldown. To top it all off they are stationary (as turrets usually are) which makes them completely pointless in roughly 90% of STO's content.
