In this post I’ll cover what the Subsystems are, some of the things they affect, and what some of those effects are. Once you’ve read this and if you feel in a bit of a hurry here’s a link to a post on power preset macros. Now be warned, that post starts off with quite … Continue reading Star Trek Online Beginners Guide to Subsystem Power #STO
I was very confused as to why my latest video had so many views. It was produced for a friend in game who admitted to being tired of explaining things like “Use only one type of energy damage.” to new players in his group. And so many dislikes! Dislikes are actually good for the channel, … Continue reading Beginner’s Guide, what is it really? #STO
At least rank 50 beginners. Before that most people probably won’t be so interested in this topic. If you ARE below 50 and ARE interested, you’re welcome to stay. Some of this won’t apply to you due to Boff seating on lower tier ships but the rest will. I’m sure if you can read this, … Continue reading Star Trek Online Beginners Space DPS Guide #STO
Right off the bat let’s get a couple of things out-of-the-way. This isn’t an exhaustive review or listing of all the engine types in STO. The list at least I’m sure exists somewhere else. Most likely in a compilation of available sets. A review of all the possible combinations and interactions with everything else that … Continue reading Star Trek Online Impulse Engines Comparison #STO
My SEO guy said to use ‘amazing’ in the title. So I did. Well the change IS pretty amazing. I’m sure you all read THIS blog on how hit and severity interact.

And I did clearly see that my damage profile was sadly lopsided. I also saw, and … Continue reading Damage Mitigation and YOU! #STO
The Engineering Variant. What mysteries does she hold? Well the Universal Console looks banging! Three huge vortices (with the promise of five when all the consoles are combined) just mucking about with your enemies. Combined with actual Boff abilities these ships tend to be able to just pile on the crowd control and debuffs on … Continue reading Ajax Class Engineering Pilot Escort T6 #STO
I don’t want to say these are the best looking Pilot ships, but these are the best looking Pilot ships. So there. KDF got a home run in the pretty department this go round. And although looking good is a key element to burning up the ques, is there anything else to recommend these Science … Continue reading Klavek Class Science Pilot Raptor T6 #STO
I think until a T6 BIrd of Prey comes around, these will be my new favorite ships. To start, I think that at my low gear level, the Romulan ships for me will be the slugs of the bunch. For this video I didn’t even swap out any of the stock equipment. I added a … Continue reading Okhala Class Tactical Pilot Warbird T6 #STO
Would like it if someone could weigh in on which is most beneficial for a Surgical Strikes 3 build [CrtD]x2 [Pen] or [CrtD]x3? [CrtD]x3 [Pen] or [CrtD]x4? via SS3 [Pen] vs [CrtD]? – Star Trek Online. And here’s sort of what I think about it. This seriously ate up my time that I should have … Continue reading Penetration vs Severity! #STO
