Thanks for the advice! I upgraded all of my beams to Mk XIV and picked up the Vulnerability Locators. That ended up nearly doubling my DPS! I'm also grinding for the Iconian ship set. I have all the marks and nearly all of the datacores. I'm just waiting on the rep time-gate.

Right now I'm playing the crafting lottery for beam arrays with better modifiers. Which I'll upgrade next weekend during the upgrade weekend. So I'm off to a good start! :)

As for skills, I definitely need to do something about those. I do have six reset tokens, so I'm willing to reset now and get them sorted.

I'll have to check out the shipright next!

Hi im Bryon and im joining star trek online.

As a SCI main I'm not exactly the tankiest and don't have the highest DPS output but I'd like to see what a more experienced player might recommend (mainly for the boat, I'm pretty happy with my Jem'Hadar ground kit). I put all the info in the form and did the planner thing, but in case you need it here too:

http://www.stoacademy.com/tools/skillplanner/?build=lrenvulcandkyr_0

I tend to run my default power levels (from left to right) at 100/50/25/25, hot-swapping to shields or aux as needed. I didn't see anything in the form or planner about active duty doff abilities, so I attached a screenshot.



And before anyone says anything, yes I know the D'Kyr isn't generally considered a good boat, and yes I know it doesn't have boff specialist seats, but I love it anyway and will continue to fly it until I have the modules to buy a Fleet Scryer Intel.

My only T6 is that slow, ugly Krenim abomination, which I only flew long enough to max out its traits.

Hallelujah We're done with the backlog!

Some one pour wine on Milmar and revive him.

While we won't be recommending skill changes until 11.5 we can still help you outfit your ships!

Submit your builds!

I agree with getting vulnerability locators. I would highly suggest upgrading your beams to mk xiv ASAP. Also you will want to get into the iconian 4 piece set.

Gear will only get you so far though, try watching some videos or reading on Reddit about beam builds. Look at the boff powers, traits and active doffs. There's a lot that goes into breaking 20k.

Finally most of the builds in /stobuilds Reddit channel use ISA to compare DPS.

I know they are expensive but have you tried getting the Mk XII Vulnerability Locator
consoles from the Spire? They give +1.6% CritH. That should boost up crits with the anti-p weaponry you got there.

Another really big thing that affects all of this are your skills. Dunno if you wanna mess with those yet, as they will be changing drastically with 11.5 and the new skill tree.

Hey Fleeties! :)

After a period of inactivity, I've been really getting back into STO. At the moment I'm a bit perplexed about how to go about improving my ship build. I'm flying a T6 Fleet Arbiter.

Any advice on how to improve my build would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking for a lot more DPS. I've been kind of disappointed with my DPS on this build. It's a huge improvement over my old build, but I need more. I logged a Tholian Red Alert and my DPS was only 3.3k. I thought it was going to be a lot more than that. I'd really like at least 15 or 20k.

Thanks! :)

Welcome Richard! :)

Welcome Nicole! :)

Welcome Sara! :woohoo:
