      I agree with Geoff, using Isomags and Colony consoles is quite suboptimal, I mean if you have absolutely nothing better to use then sure, but you'd really want to start putting in other consoles as soon as possible, I mean there are numerous consoles you can pick up that don't cost an arm and a leg that'd be better in slot than the colony ones

    I found your videos by chance and thankyou for awakening me from my stupidity. I have played for about 9-10 years by now and I thought I knew most of what goes on. Apparently I did not. So one day I sat down and remembered why I hated so many different enemies and why some ships were really good at taking and dishing out damage whilst some were really bad and they were T6 Ships aswell. So after watching your videos (near enough all of them) I decided to sit down and check all my ships on my main Character and lo and behold, they were a complete mess. most were hybrids of all the major weapon types, wrong armors, the stats didnt show up clearly or did not make any sense. The tooltips to all my pieces of gear made sense and I took a ship that I knew would die very quickly in normal content after I changed a lot around and it survived surprisingly. After that I looked at everything a lot closer and I will be trying to get some more of the pieces of tech from missions again on advanced difficulty to see if they survive. Also you made me try out Elite TFO's for the first time after trying Advanced TFO's a number of years back went horrendously wrong and put me off for the longest time. Got a lot of Iso-Mags and a few Hangar Consoles from them. So Thankyou very much for everything you do and keep on doing it. Bravo Good Sir!.

    @matthewday7565 2 місяці тому +3

    With the Lorca, if you add the Torp, may as well go full set with the Phaser too, as the final set bonus gives some extra torpedo potshots - and the Wide angle Dual Heavy beam bank is a decent combination of power and firing arc

  • @matthewkeeling886
    @matthewkeeling886 2 місяці тому +2

    Another thing about the Quantum Phase Converter: You can pick it up early in a character's playthrough and upgrade it as you go without much trouble. The rest of the set is also good for that period of play, particularly the phaser weapon. The set is also very good for new players in general.
    If you are not in a fleet the Bellum consoles from the Discovery Reputation Store are quite useful, if you have an open slot using one of them gives a nice boost to crit chance and an improvement over the basic version of their console's normal boost if it is a tactical console. Since these are not Advanced Consoles, they can be used with Isomags as well.

    Hi @mcstu, love the content. I know the is only a subset of your audience but one thing I would like to see in the content is a caution or maybe an episode on the difference between console and pc due to limitations on sub system settings which may make some traits/gear much less useful. Hard to stack aux/weapons for example.

    I use the Odyssey-class and all of its variants consoles on my Lexington-class the console you mentioned is NOT on any of the Tier 5 or 6 Odyssey-class Starships! It’s not even on the Verity-class locked behind the 10th Anniversary Bundle very expensive even with sales discount. All the Odyssey-class variants consoles equal a SET Bonus after all. Thus if it’s on the Verity-class it’s an extra console on the ship.

    Freeloading cheapskate edition.
    1. Episode "Of signs and portents" from New Frontiers - Phaser tactical relay.(can repeat this mission to fill slots.
    2. Episode "Sunrise" from Future Proof. Universal console Quantum phase converter. One piece only.
    3. Gamma Rep Tier2 - Universal console Ordnance Accelerator. One piece only.
    4. Episode "Scylla and Charybdis" from New Frontier. Equipping 2 Bajor Defense Set pieces gives a buff to phaser damage. You can get a piece from the Phoenix store too which again, is entirely for free with game resources from playing.
    There's other freely obtained bits and bobs for your equipment slots from missions and rep-box drops but seem only mediocre gains compared to something better for survival or a set bonus etc but who knows, maybe if you stitch all those other overlooked(by myself) consoles with far less impressive weapons and phaser buffs together perhaps the end result might actually pack such a big punch that it justifies significantly dropping the benefits of "better" options... interesting.

    MCSTu, This question has been bothering me for a long time. Does it even make sense to have heterogeneous weapons like beam banks and heavy cannons? as an example, of course, ships with a 5 by 3 or 5 by 2 weapon system. Or is it better to stick to the same weapons? there are also traits of the type: preferential targeting.

      @@MCStu No, I realize that by conditionally removing 2 beam banks from the front side and changing them with heavy cannons, I reduce the damage from fire at will or overload. But don't two different firing mods give you a bigger boost? If the ship has 4x4 gun slots, like Valkis dreadnought, I bet all beam arrays, well, except for the set bonus from discovery banks. Let's just say I'm interested in the viability of such a build, based on starship traits on multiple firing mods. I would not like to spend an extra 300 million EC if there is no sense at all)
