Hi everyone,

today we would like to discuss beam ships and how to build them. This guide should show you the general way of building it for different ships and layouts and what is important. We hope it would help you to identify the best choice for yourself 🙂

Hi everyone,

today we would like to discuss cannon ships and how to build them in a more generalized approach. We hope this could help you to choose the gear for your ship 🙂
This guide could be used for any ship, for cannons ships with more front weapons are usualy better, like 5 front / 3 aft weapons or 5 front /2 aft /1 experimental weapon layouts, but it will work with 5/1/1, 4/3/1, 4/3, 4/2/1, 4/2 and even 4/4 layouts too.

Hanger pets are often overlooked being seen as a bonus launch and forget secondary or even tertiary damage source. On some ships and with the right combinations hanger pets can add a reasonable amount to your overall DPS. Pushed far enough it is possible to get over 100k DPS from pets alone, although that could be argued to be suboptimal as you will be sacrificing other better areas which overall would give you more DPS.

To get the most out of pets one of the first choices is the skill tree. There isn’t much to talk about here you will want

• Coordination Protocols: +20% Hull Capacity and Shield Capacity for Hangar pets.
• Defensive Coordination: +20% Defence and Damage Resistance Rating for Hangar pets.
• Offensive Coordination: +20% Accuracy and Base Damage for Hang...

Due to the high demand for science ship builds, here is a brief overview of what is currently in vogue. One fair warning: only read on and recreate one of the builds if you want to invest hundreds of millions of energy credits, piles of Lobi and thousands of Zen.

Science ships are able to dish out incredible amounts of damage to groups, especially in elite queues.  Unlike cruisers or escorts their main sources of damage are:

1. Bridge officer skills
2. Clicky abilities from consoles
3. Secondary deflector
4. Weapons

The following builds are based exactly on this order. 

Captain class
A common mistake is to link the captain’s profession to the class of the ships when it comes to terms of maximum efficiency. This might work in other MMOs, but in STO it’s Tactical > rest...
