the console which will be available next week is a tactical console. why??
the polaron bonus is already 1 of the worst available. 2 pieces from the jem'hadar space set give +15,4% polaron damage: 2 pieces from the nukara set give more bonus!!
example for phaser energy:
- console quantum phase converter -> + 20% phaser damage: universal console. added to the counter command set, the bonus is very interesting

Not entirely sure if the set bonuses add polaron damage, but some of those items do add radiation damage which can be a nice bonus if you're using polaron anyway.
A: They didn't want to give us scientists anything awesome.

my fed engineer with tetryon weapons is more efficient than my tac with polaron weapons (they use the same ship).
yep, but Polaron weapons are specialized to drain powers (my toon is a drain specialist, she uses tychen rift, siphon, and the nandi trait). maybe they should modify the console and remove the + exotic damage.
I love the new console. Fits my vaadwaur emitter equipped ship perfectly. +pol, +torp, +pgen. Awesome.
If your flying a science ship you should look into torpedoes, especially the reputation ones have lovely secondary effects that are boosted by drain or exotic damage builds.
While I agree with you, I belive the phaser console been universal its an exception, becouse federation usees phaser and the majority of players are feds. At least thats what I think it may be the devs reasoning. Its the only one like that, and there is also Console - Science - Temporal Disentanglement Suite wich, obviosly, its not a tac one either. Shame that the kdf dont get parity with the distruptor one called Console - Tactical - Harmonic Resonance Relay from the Preserver Resonant set.
Ohh and it has nothing to do with the console having + sci passive skills bonus in it, since the phaser boosting one has also +[Flow], a sci skill, and a hot restart to aux power lvls...
Its actually a Science console, not Universal.
Also, Phaser damage has no space equipment (thats engines, shields, deflectors, warpcores) that give it a damage bonus, so as polaron does I fail to see what the problem is.
> I don't know bioneural infusion circuits may replace a prtg console because of how much crit you can get.
mmmm.
