so lets take plasma ddb's for example...is it better to go all in on say...borg or mix and match..1 borg...1 bio...1 fleet...etc. i get you need to have complete sets but as a sci. ship i have more flexibility so ive gone all in on 1 type.

    For as long as the energy type stays the same you can pic as you like. :)

    Some sub types are a tiny bit better than others but nothing that will have a huge impact.

    You will find fitting tac consoles in fleet spire holding.

    Please google STO League for a very good site to get lots of informations about building a starship in STO.

    Yeah energy type specific consoles give more boost per console then weapon type specific but beyond that there's not really need to match unless you want a unified look for your ship.

    And yeah sets are useful for their bonuses and even then you need to see what bonus is useful for you and how useful it would be, sometimes 2 non-set pieces can give you a bigger benefit then 2 set pieces.

    I have one ship that has mismatched types, but it's a sci epg build, and beams are not really a dps maker. the types are different to get me sets, in particular, the Iso Cannon. I love how hard it hits
