Either way the doffs are Energy Weapons Officer and come form the Delta Alliance Duty Officer Pack

You can find the list of names here.
The Severity officer is Rilinda, the Crit Chance officer is Terenza.
Most of what you ask on the forum can be looked up quickly on the Wiki Page. I'm not saying this to be snide, I'm drawing your attention to it because it can often be a quicker way to get an answer then starting a thread and waiting for replies. I did not know the answer to your question, I went to the Wiki and looked it up.
It's actually the opposite. Crit Chance is harder to buff then Severity, there are more sources of Severity available then there are for Critical Chance. Because of that, most captains choose Locater Consoles (Crit Chance) over Exploiters (Severity.) This of course, is not true in every case it's just a general rule for most PvE builds.
Rom boffs with trait: superior operative. Roms can get a full bridge load of these, whilst everyone else can get just male tacs at the fleet embassy. With specialist seating on a T6 you can accomodate three of them in a mainstream build, some raiders might be able to fit more but the build would probably be a mess.
Stack accuracy, the accuracy overflow mechanic turns excess accuracy into extra crit hits and critD, at I think the rates of 1.25% critH AND .05% critD per 10 accuracy. There are a lot of things that give a bit more accuracy and things that reduce the target's defense rating, with spare accuracy being related to: your accuracy minus target's defense.
So for example you could put a tac rom boff into the pilot seat on the winter breen ship and give him attack pattern lambda 3 that grants +50 acc when active on top of his constant +2 CritH and 0.05% critD.
Two standard rep consoles the borg assimilated and rom zero point together give approx +3 crits and 10 critD
Its important not to get too fixated on crits alone and to ensure the build remains functional, for energy weapon dps that means powering your guns and moving the ship about.
The Zero Point Energy Console is from the Romulan Reputation.
I also use the Temporal Disentanglement Suite Science Console from the Iconian War mission "Butterfly", but I also run high Aux power on most of my ships.
not even remotely the case, and it is "than" rather than "then"
the thing is, that the consoles give very little severity to begin with...the most severity comes from your weapon mods, for weapon mods it is crtD>crtH (appart from other even more preferable mods)
on weapons the crtH is always cheaper, since you get more crtD on weapons than on any other item in the game. 20% crtD or 2% crtH...a ratio of 1 to 10...basically every other item has a ration of 1 to 5.
The problem with Accuracy overflow is that the bonus doesn't apply when using abilities like FAW which is why most people avoid it. Accuracy has always been more desirable in PvP then PvE.

Use with torp spread to instantly gain all three stacks.
I am not sure, initially.. I heard that it was indeed fixed but then was later revealed to still be broken.
That was some time ago though, I'm not sure what state Accuracy is in now, but the question alone is enough for me to avoid it.
No, you can have more than one Hargh'peng torpedo. It typically has a 15 cooldown, but firing the 1st Hargh'peng causes the other to begin a 10 second cooldown. Therefore, having two of these torpedoes effectively reduces the cool down time to 10 seconds.
There are two drawbacks to the Hargh'peng torpedo:
- 1 - Boff torpedo abilities have no affect (no spread or high yield)
- 2 - There is no console that specifically increases the torpedo's damage. You can only use consoles that generally increases damage for all torpedoes like the Warhead Yield Chamber.
