    The Boff training parts od the ground skill tree add the choosen training manual to your R&D crafting manual section, so you can craft this manual Rank III on your own.

      You can also buy these skills from the exchange. I don't use turrets on BO anymore. But I ready don't use these skills anymore. I use Event, Lockbox, and Specialization skills for my endgame BO. I am also a crafter.

    I like the idea that you do a lot of your videos for newer players. It tells me that the game is not dying. And I say that because I have seen my fleet go from 152 to 55 players. The vast majority of them just not logging in for 90 days or more

    Video request here :
    Any chance for a sub-series of videos dealing with the ships with specialization seatings (Intel , Engineering , Pilot , etc.) , and breaking it down further to which specialization powers are good / harmonize with which professions (tac-eng+sci) ?
    I'm asking from the angle of pretty much just having used Intel ships , and having ignored any & all other Specializations as I knew nothing about them and almost no other Specialization power made it to me as a "recommendation" .
    So I'm curious as to what's out there that is noteworthy , and for what profession / purpose ?
    Thanks . :)

  • @chalor182
    @chalor182 2 роки тому +1

    What would you say to the idea of taking the last point out of long range sensors (captain) and putting it in warp core efficiency (admiral) instead because it gives you the next engineering bonus while not losing you the science one since you're one past.. or is the benefit of long range sensors just that much better than warp core plus the engineering bonus? I don't know enough of the crunchy stuff to work it out

  • @Sephiro1701
    @Sephiro1701 3 роки тому +1

    Can somone pls verify that the "readiness" skills dont work? i tested it on multiple characters and it changes nothing to the cooldown!

    • @nolgroth
      @nolgroth 2 роки тому

      Really depends on your other cooldown methods. For a full Aux2Bat, Photonic Officer II, or the Boemler trait cooldown method, Readiness isnt going to have much of an effect. If you use something like the Prolonged Engagement 2-piece plus Bio-Neural Gel Packs plus Chrono-Capacitor Array, then Readiness skill add to the rest for a decent passive cooldown management system.
      So if you are going for one of the more traditional, "meta" cooldown methods, you can skip Readiness or maybe drop a point into each.
      If you are going for an Ultimate, you might dump some into Readiness for that career. That's more of an aside to your question though.

    The skill tree is not as annoying as it used to be but it is still very annoying because 1) the descriptions are misleading and 2) they've tweaked things enough that old advice that used to be good is now terrible advice.

    @marcuspacheco3815 Рік тому

    Does tactical readiness do anything if you're running 2x aux2bat. If not would it not be better to just fill out defensive manuvering? Even though it does very little at least its doing something.... 🤷 2x aux2bat (with 3 purple technicians) would max out your cool downs anyway. Then likewise further all don't I only need two ranks of focus frenzy? Since one reduces bridge officer cooldowns?

    • @MCStu
      @MCStu  Рік тому

      No it does not, but if you want the tac ultimate then you need to fill in the points. It's still worth it but not for the readiness.

    • @marcuspacheco3815
      @marcuspacheco3815 Рік тому

      @@MCStu You are unquestionably the man. Also You def do not need the ultimate. You can pick the options for focus frenzy in any order so you can drop the Boff cool down option. I'm running and unorthodox BO set up with Gravimetric Torp and Terran for the 2 piece because the barbie makes me happy and I'm getting proton damage anyway from some console. So I took 2 defensive maneuvering. Took one point out of engines some where... and re-allocated 2 points into EPG. Could have taken one less Core potential but I figure the extra Aux power and 5 vs 8 engine power is nbd especially since I'm running em-pilot doff. Most of my power goes to wep obviously. But not 125 (It stays max with energy weapons 5 phaser and KKB) and I have power in Shields, which sounds crazy. But since they made "Shield Absobtive Frequency Genarator" (one of the mogi available for dil)available on every ship I can shield tank NP. If I run BO or SS no matter what my shields never stay down now. When below 90% shields 2.5% chance 200% damage goes back to shields + RSPIII. Made my glass cannon an absolute tank. Console deserves more love for sure. Borg drain me then they instantly refill. I'm always doing enough damage to refill on a one shot. On your Odessy and my ALT Excelsior / Engineer (FAW) and my ALT CSV K'tinga, or my main TAC Defiant CSV it's completely broken. Broken, dude BROKEN. SHIELDS WORK AGAIN because they tired to damage. But you might have so many better consoles than I do It's less worth it for you. Also (side note) from the Akiras the phaser point defense cannon console is universal now too and the real hero, the torp console. If you have a photon build it throws a torp spread volley at everyone in 10km. It's very good on a Photon build. Also needs some love. There is little in the game a satisfying as dropping a Grav Torp spread on a cluster of enemies and then slapping that clicky and dropping another torp spread immediately after.

    The wiki tells me I need an Energy Weapons Officer and I have a purple who is not slotted into either space or ground. The duty officer is available and not on another mission. After leveling up to 15 in beams, gathering R&D materials, buying duty officers to craft R&D materials, crafting R&D materials.
    I can't make an Omni with the level, the officer, and the materials? What the hell?
