Great video! I really should update some of the Beam builds I run, they are rather outdated. I'm especially looking forward to your tanking traits video, that's at the top of my "To-Learn" list right now.
the best starship trait and I recommend everyone to use this when they unlock it and it doesn't come from a starship it comes from daily activities predictive Algorithms this make sure weapons more powerful and it stacks up four times this is the secret to one shot in enemies you're practically a god using this trait. this is what UA-camrs and most players do not want you to know
Dude thank you so much for your videos. The traits made such a huge difference. The free one's I mean. The ship one I can't get. No money to buy bundles.
I assume you meant tier one ship consoles. That'd be a pretty short video because it's pretty much just that one. Though I have been wanting to do a video for useful budget consoles, I'm just still figuring out how I want to format it, because there are a lot more consoles than there are traits.
My go-to with the ships I currently have is Emergency Weapon Cycle, Super Charged Weapons, Strike From Shadows, Unconventional Tactics, and Withering Barrage. I'm working on some beam builds, so those will need something different like Redirecting Arrays, but I'm not sure yet. Thankfully, it's easy enough to get good traits without spending any money, through events, store coupons, etc.
Spatial Torpedo, Omega Plasma Torp, Kelvin Timeline Torp are fast firing torps. Good for stacking that Super Charged Weapons and consuming your ETM buff.. in addition to other procs you may have... Command spec, Mixed Arm Synergy...
Or just slap on a wide angle quantum if you got it, rocket launcher from lobi or lukari rocket launcher from episode. The rocket launchers look pretty funny under ts and hy
Nice list. Not going to see the Legendary ones but I still haven't decided what to do with my Event Campaign token yet. Might use it get the Shran or wait for the other one you mentioned to leave the New section of the C-Store. Good info on the Onboard Dilithium Recrystalizer paired with Oberth console. I have at least one DEW character with ODR that this will surely come in handy for. Just unlocked Critical Systems and I am working towards the Improved version. One great and free one you missed is Unconventional Tactics from the Strategist rep. Paired up with Intelligence Agent Attaché or/and One Impossible Thing at a Time, you can run it frequently for a 15% Cat-2 boost. If you are a budget Tactical captain, One Impossible Thing at a Time is almost needed, as it rewards you buy clicking your Captain abilities by lowering the cooldown on them so that you can use them more frequently. Plus you also have the Personal Space Trait from the Temporal Recruitment that lowers the cooldown of your Tactical Fleet ability. Both of those combined translates into some (for captain abilities) pretty spamable buffs. I tend to think low-end, as the high end can pretty well take care of itself.
I didn't rank them because what makes a trait good is still pretty subjective. I could probably rank these in terms of how good they are for running ISE, but not everyone cares about running ISE, most just want something that will get them through Advanced Random TFOs. Plus, a ranked like is always subject to change, there's no way to know how the meta will change as the game gets updates.
Thank you for the information video. I have a question about energy overdrive. Will it increase cannon damage with the use of preferential targeting? I currently have fire at will for the proc and hoping to increase the damage with energy overdrive.
Heart of Sol "kinda weird" hahahah yeah.... it's the only starship trait that is truly faction locked. It's 4 near-identical traits that have different faction appropriate damage types.
MC thought i would give you a update could not win the first race but by accident did the by out so i got the ship it was in lobi ty again for all you do
I'd love to see you do a video video on a captains space skills All the build videos I see no one has done a space skill video for beam overload builds if they have I've never found one That would be a good video to watch just an idea
By "captains space skills", do you mean your character's skill tree? Or do you mean something going over the different captain specific abilities? Because I have videos on both of these topics. Skill tree: ua-cam.com/video/pdHiTwwyvkw/v-deo.html Captain's abilities: ua-cam.com/video/eXhg_TIcMl8/v-deo.html
@Stu1701 The space skill tree, engineering, science, and tactical If you have a video on that, I'd be eager to watch it. I love the content you do for this game. it's helped me and probably many others in so many ways I've been playing since 2017 on console, and even I still get lost on things in game. The skill tree being one of them.
I use the same skill tree for all three career types, its designed to be as versatile as possible. There really isn't much difference between eng, tac, and sci characters. what's more important it the builds you put on them.
I would prioritize Emergency Weapons Cycle if you don't already have it. Lowers power cost of your energy weapons and buffs their haste. Haste is a very valuable skill for buffing damage. It comes from the Arbiter, Kurak, Morrigu, and Legenday Valdore.
I have a question about the energy overdrive trait. Does it stack with the effect of competitive impulse engines? Where activating a firing mode grants a speed buff, defense rating and tact boff recharge buff? Like if I activated beam overload would both buffs stack?
was watching this again , i see it looks like the enhanced plasma manifold got nerfed >?? it shows +50 for 15 secs and + 10 for 15 secs , ob dil recrystal was a bit over 3 mil today and i think that will be great on my kelvin intel dread with override safeties
I run a few of these consistently, no mention of "one big happy fleet" off of the legendary Miranda? Is it because it's not specifically for dew builds or because it's not as good anymore? I thought it was great and I've been using it on almost every build since I got it, also I use "history will remember" off the narendra/voral a lot. Is that one decent? Thanks for any and all replies.
I guess "history will remember" will be shown under a tanking theme because of the defense buffs. But yes, I like this trait too and use it every time on any build
One Big Happy Fleet is still a good trait, the shield pen buff makes it good for pretty much anything weapons-based. I didn't include it in the video because I wanted to limit the list to 15 and didn't want to do too many legendary traits. And yeah, because it's not specific to energy weapon builds. Shield pen is an important skill for torpedo builds though, so it'll probably get brought up when I do the torpedo traits video. History Will Remember is really better as a tanking trait because of the buff to threat generation and will definitely get brought up when I do the tank traits video. It's damage buff isn't that powerful because it take time to build up and is only cat 1, but its still pretty nice because it stays active until you change maps.
Please slow down. :) as you went on you got faster and faster in your delivery so that at the end you sound like an auctioneer. Breathe. :) Do you have a vid that explains upgrading beams and consoles from a noob standpoint. Most posters assume you have a level of knowledge, which I dont, to get the most out of their posts. Ty
are you trying to deceive the people who are watching actually the first trait you mentioned onboard dilithium recrystallizer I recall getting from a ship can't remember what ship because I've got so many. worst starship trait is emergency weapon cycle miners 50% to weapon power now why would anyone want less weapon power every 30 seconds I wouldn't want my ship to be weak a starship trait what is a pile of garbage
I didn't know about Entwined Matrices canceling Withering Barrage. Thanks.
>2 years ago
in case you don't know it does not override any firing modes any more.

Stu-This has been extremely helpful and I have now started to enjoy this so much more; thank you for your insight!
Dude thank you so much for your videos. The traits made such a huge difference. The free one's I mean. The ship one I can't get. No money to buy bundles.
So cool you build more than one ship toon., thank you for something different
Could you do a video on some of the best or useful tar one ship consoles that go well with traits like the first trait you talk about in this video
I assume you meant tier one ship consoles. That'd be a pretty short video because it's pretty much just that one. Though I have been wanting to do a video for useful budget consoles, I'm just still figuring out how I want to format it, because there are a lot more consoles than there are traits.

I like the variety of 15. Also I would love to see these ranked.

Wish i had supercharged weapons :( might have to buy that ship one day
It's good. Try History Will Remember and Strike From Shadows too.
@@hopebgood yea i like those :)
If I'm not mistaken Preferential Targeting also comes on one of the T6 Andorian pilot ships too.
no it does not. only the lobi and legendary versions of the NX.
@@Stu1701 Yup you are correct I mixed it up with promise of ferocity.
Firing a torps spread will get you all 3 stacks on super charged weapons.
Thank you for the information video. I have a question about energy overdrive. Will it increase cannon damage with the use of preferential targeting? I currently have fire at will for the proc and hoping to increase the damage with energy overdrive.
I really like this any chance you do this for consoles?
Heart of Sol "kinda weird" hahahah yeah.... it's the only starship trait that is truly faction locked. It's 4 near-identical traits that have different faction appropriate damage types.
Works well for people like me, I pretty much exclusively use the energy types associated with the faction of each ship.
GREAT VIDEO!!!!! I would like to see one on consoles as well. I just subscribed :)
MC thought i would give you a update could not win the first race but by accident did the by out so i got the ship it was in lobi ty again for all you do
... you know I'm not MC Stu, right?

@Stu1701 I'll check out your video on skill tree setup
Thanks, bud, for replying back and linking your video on the topic 👍 been a massive help 👍 😀
Three stacks for supercharged? Torp spread 1..... one use, 3 targets, 3 hits 3 stacks....
My fav is the dilithium t1 ship. Things like that seem more reachable is there a list?
if i were to prioritize what ship to buy to get the trait, what do you recommend to buy first? shran pilot light escort for that crit chance?
I would prioritize Emergency Weapons Cycle if you don't already have it. Lowers power cost of your energy weapons and buffs their haste. Haste is a very valuable skill for buffing damage. It comes from the Arbiter, Kurak, Morrigu, and Legenday Valdore.
Im so happy love your videos
Can you do a video with stuff you don't have to get through an event or by buying anything ship?
I have a question about the energy overdrive trait. Does it stack with the effect of competitive impulse engines? Where activating a firing mode grants a speed buff, defense rating and tact boff recharge buff? Like if I activated beam overload would both buffs stack?
I would assume so, but I haven't tested that so I can't be 100% sure

I have a lot of those ships, but i do not have the traits available.. now why is that ?...
you gotta unlock the traits by leveling the ships
