So, after being away from STO for a while I'm still getting up to speed on some changes. Currently, I'm trying to build a 1v1 ship for a competition, but due to various changes I could use a little help. We'll just assume I have just about every ship at my disposal except for a bug ship, what are some builds you might…
Try 12th Fleet. I'm not gonna try to sell them to you, just make your own judgments. We are highly active as far as I can tell and I believe we meet your criteria. I normally wouldn't reply to threads like these, to be honest, just felt like you would be at home here.…
That would be Enterprise-D, or the fleet XO No Mercy. Easiest way to get a hold of them would probably be to join our site. And, as for your fleet's name, I can't say you were originally in possession of it, 12th Fleet has been around since beta and I did not see any of "The 12th Fleet" handles till recently. Either way,…
I could see a little merit in a front torpedo, but in a premade case? No, I can't justify it. My role is to dish out DPS and call out targets. Once in a while, I'll throw a heal towards my teammates when they call for it. With any escort, you're bound to attack from the front.. And, even though having a torpedo takes less…
You would be losing a stupid amount of DPS for that one torpedo with no consoles for it. And, while it may not be bad, it wouldn't be good either. The torpedo would average mostly the same damage you get from a single turret over time (with no abilities, mind you). So, if by chance you did use a torpedo, throw it on the…
I believe this actually has more to do with the fact people want to try new things. I'll bet quite a few of those people were intimated to get into PvP because they didn't know what they were doing, and thus got owned quickly. I'm sure some want those re-spec tokens though :P
You'll get more DPS from a 5th weapon energy console. After some testing with a few people from 12th Fleet and Sad Pandas, you get roughly an 7% to 8% overall increase to to damage when checking over the recorded results on my parser. You'll notice the extra damage, that is for sure. Still not as useful as the bug ship,…
