How much damage do I loose by not using Kemosite? I could get Kemo in a ensign slot, but that almost seems like a waste. I only have one Ensign and Lt Commander slots on my intel cruiser. Also is it worth is rolling all damage on the mines? All my Tac slots hold Quantum consoles, I am thinking about going to generic Mine…

I have given up on ships in the lock boxes....almost 200 keys and NO ship. I know I should have sold the keys...but bah. I did however get just about everything else under the sun! I do now have enough items to level up new mines on next upgrade weekend also. Have they confirmed that the Mine Bug is a bug and not a way to…

Has anyone gotten the Section 31 ship? If I am reading it correctly, could we not close in SCI mode pop off GW and then switch to TAC mode for the larger mine salvos? Can anyone confirm that TAC and SCI Officers are pre loaded or configured, so we can hot swap modes, without physically moving bridge officers.?

So tonight I played with some of the new toys. Over all I was very happy. I am still running 4 mines in the back. The mines that I drop during count down seem to be there when I sprint in and recall all the mines. I must say that is just pure fun (after you get used to being flash blind). The new console, I like and I just…

Wow thanks for the quick reply. Now to decide on which ship I want to try to build this in (I am a Fed) and to find all the pieces I want to try. At least this will be a totally different build then I have tried before, its a shame the Gamma Rapid Mine didn't pan out. It would be interesting to see if they could make a…

Has anyone else had any luck with Mine Boats or hybrid combo ships with the new gamma set (which I don't have yet....grrrr)?
-
Thanks for the reply! Yes I am not out to min/max with this character, I just want to be able to go in, have fun and be a agro magnet. I think with all the changes, being able to spread out my points to more items will allow me a lot more flexibility to use more items and to try more options, in finding that comfort zone…

Don't know about improvement, but I just got the new carrier. I love my hangar pets once upgraded. I am really not sure at all how to build this character or play it, but I like it. Ok improvement... We need more dedicated tools to make this a carrier!. I want to be able to spec my guy so that my pets become the Hamner and…

My son has talked me into starting a KDF engineer and I want to try out the new Gorn T6 ships once I level up. Thinking about a drain ship, but still thinking about it. I have played cruisers for too long, I love to wade in and take a beating but still live. Can you tell any difference in toughness between them and other…

Has anyone tried the Eternal with both temporal seats filled with Temperal officers using Temperal skills and any of the new rep gear? Currently I am slightly handicapped because my R&D skills are not high enough to make the upgrades I want, to get Epic Fleet items etc., so have just upgraded as far as I can and will redo…
-
Is it just me or do the new consoles and ships really push science and energy weapons mixes?
-
After reading the build and watching the video on the Eternal, do you feel that you really need that many points in Tactical? Would you think dropping out say 10 points and placing them into engineering or sci to toughen up the ship a bit more, doable or would this be a bad thing? I do plan to run torpedoes up front using…
-
Need some advice, I am planning to try a Sci Capt with the new 31st Century ships, the Eternal ship to be exact. My question is after building for a large grave well / Rift, what do you think would be best....360 Beams or Cannons or all Torps or mix? I am thinking that if I go beams, I will have a lower DPS, but more…

So I have been reading up on new ships and abilities coming in July. The Eternal class T6 science ship looks like it might be fun. Can't wait to try out a science character; my hope is to be able to be highly defensive, (I have been so spoiled by engineers and cruisers! It seems like damage over time abilities/weapons…
-
Thanks for the reply, I just assumed that pet damage was tied to me.... Good to hear it's not!
-
Is there a trick to getting the attributes you wish on weapons?. Or do you just go to the table knowing it's going to cost a fortune til you get the mk II weapons you want, then upgrading. In a perfect world Rapid and ACC III would seem to be perfect. I still am only tier 4 on my first character so can't even help my new…
-
Well I tried some tractor mines tonight in the rear spot, I really like them with the exception of the slow reuse rate (I am using Tractors and Rift for now until I get some good Bridge officers I can afford to upgrade. I have also been trying to use my hanger slot on my ship, but for now I only have the basic shuttle.…
-
Well I am leveling nicely almost to 40, I am using some Polarons that I have made and keep up grading as I go. I also have my leech console installed. So far very little hurts me but I see what some of you were talking about as far a how much power those weapons take. For now I am using all cannons cause I HATE torpedos,…
-
Is the energy usage vs damage better for mines vs torpedos? Is there a mine that will best fit into these builds?
-
Thanks, currently I fly a beam boat and I very my speed a lot; as I do what ever it takes to stay in the rear arc because flanking seems to really boost my damage returns. If I didn't go command, I was hoping to drop a shield on way in and pop 1 torp; then hug the back arc by using speed control so using rear torp would…
-
I have a question on rear torps, do you actually fire them off enough to make them more effective than another turret in back that can proc? Or are turn rates generally slow enough that you want that torpedo? Also currently I have Intel on my beam boat, and I love flanking. But command seems like it will really help…
-
Thank you that is a great report!! Can't wait to see the screens.
-
I really want to try this build so bad...I did get my Leech Console other day and it was so lucky! It cost me 4 keys, and 5 boxes (yes still have a unopened box), I should have played the lotto that day! Now I have to build up my first character so he can get the rest of the toys so can start a new captain. My point of…
-
Can't wait to get my first character up enough to be able to make a second that I can build gear for... I think I will have to try both, I think it might be cheaper in the short run, to try the Burn Baby build, I am still not sure the best way to get the Drain Console. I am thinking of buying the Klingon ship I was told…
-
My question is can you make a turret boat without drain and still be effective (with 11.5), I want to explore all my options before I start down either path. I don't need to be top damage....but I sure don't want to be the lowest either!

I am currently using this build. A more balanced PVE Build - New Skill System. I have just hit 50 yesterday, and have only really done the story missions. I play on advanced mode and am using only the gear I have found or gotten off the exchange. I have only really died when I got stupid and forgot to fight smart or forgot…
