Very good Point, the current state uf the game makes more than 3/4 of the possible options/builds completely useless and 5% of the rest will be more and more powerfull until they dominate and destroy the game
There is another point that makes the new ship superior to the Avanger: Boffs KDF can stack 5 Pirate traits, so they can easily out-dps the Avanger. Where is the good old human Leadership as the Federation counter to Pirate and Operative trait's? Nerfed too Oblivion because KDF whined about it. Now after Legacy of Romulus…
The only thing i can confirm is, that traits and doff's do work with pets. The Voth Heavy Fighters of my engi get the EPS Manifold Efficiency bonus and the Damage Control Doff's for eptx work too. A fleetmate and me also tested if the Beam Overload Doff's are working with Obelisk Swarmers and they do. The Obelisk Swarmers…
Ok, now they are insane, +31,9% damage and +crth or +crtd? I think they want us to finish Infected Elite in less than 2 minutes right? Romulans with more than 25% crth as standart value are comming :(
Thank you for your support, i thought i am the only one who see the problem, and like other wrote, why does an energy drain has radiation damage and kill these things? it deosent make sense. The difference to abilities like gravity well is: they are intended to clear the spam
Ok, now the ar'kif is an upgraded armitage: +1 base turn rate +1500 base hull + battle cloak +singularity abilities +1 ensign engeneering + 2 piece plasma set -1 ensign tactical -40 power another ship outclassing its counterpart, give them 3 more month and we have romulans online :(
