  • That and other reasons is why I chose a shot that hit something we did know as opposed to duranium or something. I do have to retract a previous statement in The Survivors the Husnock ship created by Uxbridge hit the shields with over 400 GW of energy not 4 as I previously had stated. This concerns me since if the phaser…
  • In the interest of curiosity I decided to see what I could come up with in terms of on screen firepower and ignore the TM. Since most o the shots we see hit alloys and such that we are not aware of the composition or are fictional I went on a hunt for something we could quantify. I remembered at least one episode where the…
  • I see the array = more firepower vs array = better coverage only argument is still going. I don't usually weigh in on these debates but I think it might be fun. So let's set some premises up The GCS has a 200 emitter array all lined up next each other in a strip. Each emitter can handle 5.1 MW of power right So is it safe…
  • Personally I prefer the Dauntless trait it the extra 25% to all hull heals really adds up and is a bonus to healing in a small aoe. I haven't unlocked the Scryer one yet but if it functions like the Eclipse one the bonus is nice but heavily dependent on how often you can use sci/intel abilities to keep the stacks up.
  • I liked the look for the most part until we saw the rear. That third impulse drive in the middle either needs to move lower into the neck/engineering section or be removed or the side 2 removed and leave the middle in the saucer. Not sure what the mini nacelles are doing or why they are there would look better if they were…
  • Only thing I can't quite like is how wide the nacelle pylons go out. Not sure why just doesn't look right to me. Otherwise I like your neck modifications the saucer I could take or leave I like either. I'm just glad it resembles a starfleet design and sort of a continuation of the Galaxy line of design rather than the…
  • You realize that you basically agreed with me? I didn't say that Starfleet designed their ships to be explorers first but that they as an organization consider themselves as more explorers than soldiers. To that end they wouldn't classify one of their ships as a battleship regardless of its capabilities in that regard. In…
  • To be fair I don't think the Federation would ever have called something a battleship since it goes against the idea that Starfleet were explorers first and foremost. Also with the exception of the Defiant they did not build any ship with the sole purpose of combat. Even the Excelsior was used for scientific research. I…
  • I'm sure most of what I will say has been said but here is my opinions. This is PVE based feedback. Tactical General AOE vs single target - We find ourselves most often fighting multiple enemies rather than single targets making aoe abilities far more practical in our limited slots than single target damage. In cruisers…
  • Didn't have time for more than one run but I figure I'll contribute too. To be fair I had a really good team for this run.

  • I'm thinking this probably has more to do with the saucer separation animation than anything. When they created it they probably never converted the old skins and probably don't want to go back and do them. No idea if I'm correct or not.
  • Check here http://home.comcast.net/~amicus/Skill%20Point%20Effects.htm it is a little old but should give you an idea.
  • Just curious if it is planned/when you will revisit some of the older ships like the tier 5 intrepid and Galaxy to get them back up to snuff compared to the newer ships? Particularly the Galaxy :D
  • 1. Is updating the Galaxy Retrofit/Fleet on your list to look at anytime soon? 2. The EPTx changes are looking great but is there anyway you can add at least one more engineering ensign power that is not on a shared cooldown? 3. Any chance that you might be able to give us the ability to remove the 3rd nacelle from the…
  • I would hope so it is a little depressing to see such a wonderful change to the D'Deridex boff seating while the Galaxy is left to languish.
  • I have to say I was really enjoying the tutorial mission quite a bit and I mean who doesn't like Drake? Sadly the bug where the Galaxy doesn't spawn kept me from advancing and finding out how he manages to escape.
  • -Will you be taking a look at the Engineering Boff powers? Or at least their diversity particularly and most importantly at the ensign level?
