Explanation: finally started to understand that I needed Technician DOFFs to make AtB work--didn't have any purple on my own, found one (expensive) in Exchange (let me reiterate how incredibly TRIBBLE the PS4 Exchange is at the moment...20mil for the DOFF in question). The other two are greens, couldn't find any better through NPC or Exchange, but it still gives me a possible 22 out of 30%.
I was lucky enough, through the brilliance of my fleet leader, to have an Armada leader nice enough to invite me to their fleet's Spire to purchase Vuln. Locator consoles (plasma, of course) which now help boost my CrtH to a cool 21%, as well as an Elite Thoron-Infused core the syncs very nicely with both AtB and OSS for damage purposes. In hindsight, I misunderstood the SEC power on it, but...at least it keeps me mobile should my engines get EMP'd.
Anyhow, I switched from CSVs to CRFs per a suggestion on Reddit for two reasons: 1) less threat generation, and 2) massive increase to single target damage which is nice. This move also frees-up a trait spot, allowing me to trade Withering Barrage for Coldhearted (which syncs up with AtB).
My remaining concern has to do with the Solanae's leech power--it doesn't seem to either proc as much as the description states, and when it does, it doesn't seem to heal for quite that much. Along with Energy Refrequencer, should I be expecting more/faster heals, at this point?
Sidenote: I have, in fact, tested the build out, so far... PVE content such as The Breach and Borg Dis. on Advanced are both breezes; Crystaline Cat. on Advanced is hit/miss, sometimes I go through and don't die, other times I die once or twice (I'm starting to learn that it's more about whomever is in my team in that one).
tl;dr
Please let me know any critique regarding updated build; and, is there a way to boost Solanae's HP leech? Also, next step I'm trying to take is to secure a Conductive RCS [ResAll]--I do have the DPRM that someone else recommended, as well.
Hmmm... I'm going to try switching SaYP and Regroup tomorrow... But, for now...I actually replaced CRF2 with FA2, and replaced Coldhearted with Numerical Superiority. Holy TRIBBLE are enemies popping like red-zits.
Oh, for some reason I thought the leech was only draining from the primary target--is that not true?
Update: Now flying Fleet Mogai (T6); same general setup, but now with the two Fleet Neutronium [+Turn] consoles; the added hull and shield mod from the upgraded Mogai, and the extra turn rate, have added a lot more survivability. I'm now flying through Advanced queues with relative ease, and even CC advanced has me barely dipping below 50% (at worst).
Thanks for the help.
You mentioned in another thread, though, that there are better space sets than Solanae...any advice on what could eventually the Solanae I'm running, or just stick with it for now?
