world razor FAW build

[thorn hull]

im going to replace the default weapons with upgradeable obliviating beam arrays when i can, along with an obliviating omni in the back

idk how that hyper-gen repair matrix snuck its way on, but that was not the trait i wanted

[thorn hull]

gonna try to get the saucer seperation console, which leaves me with 2 slots open

I take it the Saucer Separation is a theme choice?

You don't really seem to have much additional firing haste on your build. You got stuff like the Ahwahnee? or maybe DOMINO console from the Bajoran?
If no to those, maybe consider the f2p option M6 Computer.

In any case, get yourself the Shield Absorptive Frequency Generator (f2p console off the heavy Valdore Warbird from the in-game ship vendor; max. price 75k dilithium), which will regenerate your shields as you do damage.

Second omni aft (crafted/lockbox one matching your chosen damage type.

3rd aft slot either a turret also matching your chosen damage type or the KCB, to have only 360° firing arc on the rear since you are relatively bound to front-face with your build due to the torpedo and the need for it to go off without delay to have ETM working as intended. In that fashion, you might want to use DBBs front, since higher base DPS than arrays.

Also: You want to toss Preferential Targeting. The boosted modes are BO and CRF, none of which are your main firing mode (that would be FaW obv.). The hyper-Gen repair matrix is a better choice than PT before knowing what else you have available; you already have a proc on your bridge (Hazard Emitters) for that trait anyway.

what about just putting beam arrays in the back 2 slots as well?

[dawn sparrow]

Anything that has not 360° firing arc is a dead slot most of the time in combat, unless your piloting is way off. But then ETM and the torp needed for it won't work that good either.

All of the above is solid advice. I have a Razor FAW build similar to what you're trying to do so I'll drop some notes as well.

It's a World Razor, so you have Cultural Conquest trait. 100% slot that in, I'd drop Target Rich Environment for it. You'll also need firing modes to buff Cultural, so I would drop KLW and APB for Spread 1 and Scatter Volley 1. Drop Spread 3, move Timeline Collapse down to 1, and pop Beta 3 in that commander slot.

You're running the DMQ on a broadsider...if your piloting is good, you can use it, but you also don't have Lorca console or Wide Angle DBB to really take full advantage of it. Something to think about.
Obliviating weapons are awesome for Overload builds, you may want to consider a different flavor for FAW but mileage varies here and space barbie is a factor.

BoFF layout concept idea for using Cultural Conquest.

this is what i came up with so far before you commented

currently working on mastering the awhanee and then was going to move its console over

maybe its trait too to replace legacy of qonos

Are you aware you can use a console on multiple ships at the same time? It will simply move over when switching ships

[soft pine]

LoQ is better than FS, it's more consistent. But you can use it to replace target-rich

[soft pine]

Do you have Unconventional Systems? Because Jam and Heisenberg (and arguably TLC) are pure uncon triggers and don't have that much use without it (tlc at least does some damage but the other two are pure dummy triggers)
