One's Science Officer Fleet Patrol Escort Build
Posted: August 7th, 2012, 10:34 pm
Here is my current science officer build for a fleet patrol escort.
Weapons = 3 Dual Heavy Cannons and 1 Dual Beam Bank in front; 3 Turrets in back.
Deflector = Borg.
Engine = Borg.
Shield = Aegis (I'd rather have M.A.C.O.).
Devices = Subspace Modulator (hull defense), Auxiliary Batteries (for science abilities).
Engineering Consoles = 3 Armors (defensive mix against everything), Borg Console.
Science Consoles = 2 Field Generators (yes, they stack!).
Tactical Consoles = 4 Consoles for my damage type.
Pay close attention to my abilities. Consider the types of tactics I am likely to employ. Attack pattern omega gets me free of tractor beams and increases my damage and speed. Tractor beam gives me the ability to hold ships while my weapons pound them into space dust. Cannon Scatter Volley allows me rid a carrier of its fighters. I also have plenty of nasty science officer tricks to make other players cry.
If that doesn't work fast enough, I have plenty of defensive abilities ready to utilize to keep me alive.
My duty officers are primarily geared toward increasing the likelihood of benefiting my shields. The other two are in there to enhance some of my science abilities.
This skillset is optimized to give me powerful survivability, good power levels, and the best offensive capability I can have. This skillset lets me switch between any escort class starship with minimal problems.
