The "Nebula/Miranda" version of the Excelsior is the Centaur. The "Constellation" version of the Galaxy is the Cheyenne. That said, most of those kitbash ships are boring. I'd like to see newer ships, like the Avenger.

Sustained DPS-wise, I'd say that you're pretty much hitting the ceiling on how much your ship can do, and short of swapping your Engineering Alloys for a Zero-Point Console and a Tachyokinetic Converter (which add critical chance and severity increases), which I wouldn't realistically recommend, I don't know what more you…

Of the seventeen fully realized energy types, I'd order them thusly: 1. Elachi Disruptor 2. Romulan Plasma 3. Antiproton 4. Disruptor 5. Nanite Disruptor 6. Polarized Disruptor 7. Plasma 8. Phaser (tie) 8. Andorian Phaser (tie) 10. Protonic Polaron 11. Phased Polaron 12. Polaron 13. Voth Antiproton 14. Phased Tetryon 15.…

^ the [Adapt] modifier. It increases damage resistance against the type of incoming fire, up to 20%.

Engineering Character that's got 6 points into Energy Weapon Specialization is the only way to get it. If you're not an Engie, then you're going to have to trade BOffs with someone who is.

That's one of the longest posts I've ever seen that said nothing at all.

I think there are only three major structural issues that PvP needs fixed (There are also balancing issues and mechanics issues, but those are relatively minor compared to the massive design issues in the PvP system). Primarily, there's no incentive to play PvP. This is a very large problem because people currently only…

You understand that if you have a build with 4 DHCs and activate CRF you have a 10.8% percent chance of activating that every second for 10s, or a 68.1% Chance of activating it total. Even higher if you use CSV.

"What is your beef with the Galaxy, playerbase?"

That there are no major endgame missions anymore. The original STFs were buggy, frustrating and nearly unplayable, but dammit, they were a challenge and it felt good to complete them. Now, there are story missions, hell, even patrol missions that take longer then the Endgame "raids." The old STFs don't have to return, but…

That's the one of the worst strawman arguments I've heard about the Gal-R. The Galaxy-Refits are not some leveling ships that are easily outpaced; they're, along with the Fleet Version, true end-game ships, but they're tanks. They sit there and mop up and mitigate damage so other ships don't have to take it. It's just that…

Polarons are, and have been, the required energy type for people running drain builds in PvP, and nothing, save changing the Proc, is going to change that. But without other energy draining abilities Polaron weapons are a waste. I mean, if there was a Jem'Hadar ship (or a ship that would get the Victory is Life 3-piece…

Heya, so I looked at this build, and it looks similar to a build I once ran on my Excelsior a long time ago, though with noticeable differences. I am assuming you're looking to increase the damage on the Avenger because it sounds like you're more of a damage-dealer cruiser captain than a support/healer cruiser captain. If…

Yeah, this bug is annoying doing the Alhena Daily.
-
I don't know, I still have parser data that showed cannons/turrets outdamaging beamboats by nearly 10%.

Cryptic should release a Tier 5 Cruiser that's just the Excalibur and the Vesper variants just to troll everyone
-
Neat, that's my Excelsior right there! I was snapping some screens myself.
-
Cryptic's been promising a PvP overhaul since March 2010. I wouldn't hold my breath on that.
-
If I bought the Fleet Variant but not the standard Avenger does it come with both options (like the T3/T5 Excelsior?)
-
Worse? I honestly don't see how it'd be worse. PvP is essentially unchanged since Launch (I'd say since Open Beta, but at least OB had two Cap and Hold maps). It's like the devs are doing everything possible to avoid having to address PvP's issues.
-
Not a weapon, per se, but the AP Alpha sound.

Good Evening, Task Force Spectre. (I hope this is the right Fleet.) My character's name is Decker@Capt_K, from the 12th Fleet, and I'd like to congratulate some of the members of your fleet for an epic PvP match that we participated in tonight. It lasted for an hour and twenty two minutes, and ended mere moments before the…

That LC Tactical slot opens up the Excelsior to a whole host of high DPS and DPS/Tank Hybrid builds that cannot be matched by another cruiser. However, if you primarily want to tank, a Star Cruiser or the Ambassador will be streets ahead of the Excelsior retrofit. (Don't have Experience with the Fleet Excel, but I imagine…
