Just use the parts from the first one. It's mix-n-match at the ship tailor.
-
Guess PVP isn't so dead after all?
-
It is uniquely powerful in several ways: It is the only ship in the game that allows 6 bridge officers. For our romulan overlords, this means 6!!! SROs for maximum critical hit and damage. For the rest of us, we can still slot 3x SRO TACs. It also has a high turn rate, 5 tac consoles, and 4 sci consoles. It's a stupidly…

Annah you're not quite right about FAW and the [OVER] mod. Over can proc during FAW, but does not execute until after the FAW cycle completes. OVER only stays in the q a few seconds (4 or 5 iirc) so OVERs that proc early in the FAW cycle are lost, but those that proc towards the end of the cycle trigger. I suspect (but…
-
Thank you all for your feedback. Snipey, I went with yours.
-
So you were explicitly exploiting a bug in the game to slot 2 of a 1-per-ship item (ancient array)... having trouble finding empathy for your situation.
-
I was wondering... does it apply to mines? Specifically does it trigger for each mine on the Transphasic Cluster Torpedo?
-
Again... your original post is just click-bait to a video that shows _nothing_ from the actual release. It's pre-release speculation. You're not showing, or telling, anyone anything that wasn't available previously.
-
So instead of actually testing anything... this is a terrible summary of the pre-S10 press release...
-
The way the description reads, I would expect all torpedo strikes on the target to receive the bonus damage, and the 2/4/6 second timer should just be for the free HYT and torp cooldown reduction. If it's not working this way (and I'm pretty sure it's not) it's just another example of needlessly…
-
Except for the iconian T4 buff... basically the same thing but says it's buffed by exotic damage buffs...
-
This is still happening. For me it's my 4 ready away team members forgetting what skills I set them with and reverting to default skills. This is *especially* likely to occur with ground bridge officers I have trained in Intel Spec with the book and slotted with an intel skill (shield drain, mostly). They love to forget…
-
For melee I like to use an engineer with chron mines. You can doff them to immobilize. For better meleeing (if they live through the mines).
-
I really don't like how only the ROM gets a LTC Science slot. Wish all 3 had that.
-
Not to get into a shipmeasuring contest but my KDF sci gets 39k in a sheshar. temptorp/gravtorp/rom hypertorp.
-
I do use them myself, for both (TAC and ENG) fed presidios I fly. I do the reciprocity+all hands+pedal2themetal thing, and generate ALOT of threat to keep reciprocity running (doffed APD, 9 points threat control, 1 or 2 +Th embassy consoles, etc). I don't use them all the time, but for missions where I'll take alot of…
-
For the presidio, shield drones are good too. This will let you dedicate more bridge officer skills to damage and less to protection. Depending on your build, this can give your more DPS than you'd lose from swapping out some DPS fighters for the shield drones.
-
I wonder how well it interacts with crafted [Sprd] torps?
-
actually no. the best thing about the rom torp is torpedo spread. it fires many torpedos at each target. the best thing? they are homing and if your target dies before they land, they re-direct to new targets. You lose much less DPS this way than with standard torps that don't redirect when their target dies before landing…
-
Reading is important. This is also in the patch notes: "Players can still sell, trade, and mail uncommissioned Bridge Officers unless they are bound." Those diplo boffs aren't bound. The come uncommissioned. Looks like you'll still see them on the exchange, etc.
-
Well... sometimes higher threat is good. For instance if you have the T6 skill "reciprocity". Or if you're misguided soul that likes to tank instead of doing damage. But really... stacking DEF + Reciprocity + some threat is not a bad way to do alot of DPS in a Intelligence T6 ship.
-
vulCans also use "C"s... vulCans Can use Plasma
-
To be honest, if torps just used the ship that fired them as initial velocity it'd go a long way... right now if you're flying at full speed, your plasma torps drop off behind you. Terrible mechanic.
-
Fixed it for you.
-
I guess the point lost on you and your ProHealz Vesta is that, in this game, Star Trek Online, all your healing, buffing, and debuffing (while undoubtedly impressive) is actually worth less to the team than if you were doing 25k instead of 5k. Is it a game? Yes. Can you play how you want? Sure. But please, please, don't…
-
Pets seem to trigger the HYT but not the BO. And it's just annoying cause your pets knock stuff around out of your AOE and make it harder to ball up the enemies with your reversed TBRs and grav wells.
-
Thanks for this. I can tell you that with my partgen-heavy KDFs, I too am quite underwhelmed with Overwhelming Force's Charged Particle Burst. More than that, though, I am VERY annoyed with it's Photonic Shockwave... it applies to pets, so your Karfi Frigates and Elite Scorpions, both of which spam High Yield Torp, are…
-
Can you test it with a KDF? I'd love to know if it triggers "Overwhelming Force"... might be cool to have your shots do CPBs...
-
See I think I see the problem here. The OP just wants us to validate that he's doing everything right and the game is messed up. Please don't post ways to avoid getting blown up by warp core breaches... or tactics about how to know when to move further away... or list useful skills that increase mobility. The OP just wants…

Hey a couple things about plasma torp boats: 2-pc bounty-hunter? great. DPS from the corrosive plasma torp? not so great. Specifically it has a plasma energy-weapon's proc instead of a plasma torp's proc. I'd strongly recommend replacing that torp with a crafted one and throwing the lobi on in the back of your ship at the…
