I know everyone is like "Tac Captain or go home..." Me on my Science Captain (especially on ground): "Oh, wow, I've never seen 20 mobs with melting faces before. Does it hurt?" Thanks for the vid!!! If it weren't for you, Auggie, CasualSAB, and MCStu, KZitem would only be for Yellowstone vids and news. You guys rock!

what do you mean by 'tech damage'? other than 'less damage'. Also you're not quite right. Tactical: Out perform both other careers with all damage Engineer: tiny buff to energy damage and #some heals Science: tiny buff to exotic damage and #some buffs

For some reasons, I find science for ground build insanely effective. Cold Fusion Flash, Exothermic Induction Field, Neutronic Radiation from the Delta Reputation and Mudd's Time Device means you can melt everything around you. And couple that with Adapt (If you have the Elite Captain), you can keep 100% uptime for those abilities.

Right now my main in STO is a Engineer Klingon Recruit. My favorite captain ability for engineering is Miraculous Repairs. Then I use the trait that allows it to recharge instantly if I take enough damage.

My 1st main was an Trill Engineer, but as I learned more about the game I moved to a Joined Trill Tactical. Though I still find great use and fun with my old engineer.

So realistically, it doesn’t matter what you choose, it’s more based on BOFS, skill tree and secondary spec. I enjoy playing engineer but I am really new and only just dinged 65. Great fun game though. Love your guides and thank you!

I mentioned this on your fleet member Augie's channel... what makes a "Starship good". Obviously it would be an involving topic because there would be a lot to go over from the type of the build, Mastery Package, Bridge officer seating etc. I think it would be a good topic to cover because there's not much on it other than individual ship reviews & a lot of people don't know what to look for, explaining this is what you want in a torpedo build, this is what you want in an energy build & sci etc... The other day I had a conversation with a fleet member over Discord explaining to him why the Parliament was bad after he watched auggie's video on it, now granted he was a new player but he is about to just throw money out the window mainly because of his inexperience. So personally I think a guide on what to look for in a Starship / what makes a ship good would be good to have out there. It might also help Cryptic understand why it's bad for them to make bad Starship with a premium price tag, but that might be wishful thinking I don't know

I actually like this idea. Going over what kind of ships fit what builds best, what makes certain ones better than others, what special features certain ships have and what makes them good or not, the go over the various sub-types of the three basic classes (cruisers, escorts, and science ships), stuff like that.

Not sure why you'd think Cover Shield isn't useful. If anything, it's a staple for fast paced shootouts. If you turn a corner to see a bunch of people locking onto you, Cover Shield provides vital setup time for all your gadgets. It also acts as an obstacle when in a confined hallway, buying time to escape. I love when people blast it down only to walk on landmines while they give chase. On top of that, it gives medics time to get people on their feet. This thing is invaluable.

@Stu1701 That's the point. Like I said before, it blocks incoming fire while I set up turrets, drones, landmines, and whatever other gadgets I have. It gives cover to medics while they revive teammates and even blocks hallways from pursuers. Assuming it's not shattered after you set up, getting around it is as simple as side stepping and opening fire like you would any wall. You can even activate shield regeneration and use it as cover again if need be. How is that just getting in the way? Saying that it just gets in the way is completely lacking any tactical thinking or creativity.

This one might be a bit difficult because each TFO is so different, so I don't think I could do a general guide to every ground TFO that's more than "follow the objective list". I've thought about doing walkthrough videos for a few TFOs because there are a few I've seen people mess up more than few times, but there are a lot of TFOs so I don't think I could do ever single one; not any time soon at least.

Sorry, that kinda just how I talk sometimes. I'll try to slow to slow it down a bit next time, but I can't make any promises. Honestly, it's kinda miraculous when I can get a statement out without stumbling over my own words, which is why I record and edit the way I do. Maybe I'll try to space out the voice over a bit better so it's sounds less clustered together.

For what its worth there is a setting to play videos on different speeds. You may benefit from setting it to 0.75x speed for certain videos. Personally when im skimming videos for information for school or something i set the speed to 1.25 or 1.5 even cuz some people talk just way to slow for me haha. To each their own

I assume you meant terok nor, not terra nova. And no, I wouldn't use them there either because those engineers need to move between two locations, so cover shield is just going to mess with that.
