I adore my Lex FAW build. One thing I will take issue with. Maximizing for broadsides arcs is key to a Broadside Beam Overload build. But with FAW you’re looking to get in the middle of stuff and go all disco beam ball of death. The front is still a firing arc. The targeting is mainly random. Sticking a narrower front firing torpedo is not a huge loss if it comes with a huge set bonus. It’s gonna shoot at something. I always FAW is more for solo content where you are mowing down waves of stuff. Patrols etc.

I love my FAW-into-BO Preferential Targeting build. I get the fun-ness of FAW and when that ends, then I use Beam Overload with that sweet 100%+ damage trait to clean up big single targets. And then I do it again. It's so fun seeing massive damage numbers after cleaning up all the trash mobs. I get to have my FAW Cake and BO Eat it too.

Love the build. EDIT: just noticed it’s on an engineer too, which is crazy 1). How did you get the combatlog to only record the portion of Ninth Rule involving the waves? I figured it would log the entire patrol, including the downtime in between Madran and all his bs, which would negatively affect your numbers. 2). Do you think the numbers are a little skewed by Ruin? What I mean is, by the time you got to the portion you logged, you had probably already destroyed 10 enemies. So you came into the log already with +20% bonus damage from ruin. And in a normal tfo, say ISE, you’re not going to be able to stack ruin as high as you’re able to in this scenarios simply because you can’t make the kill blow on as many enemies. 3). If you’re running ETM, why not run Supercharged Weapons as well? Would seem to be easy to pick up the 30% cat 1, 4.5% chance, and 19.8% severity
@Stu1701 Жыл бұрын
1. Just don't turn on the combat log until you get to the part with the waves of ships warping in. I usually turn it on when i put the tractor beam on Madran's ship. 2. On the lower difficulties, yes, but I think it's fine on elite, enemy ships are pretty durable at that point. You do have a point that not every TFO has so many spawns like that, but there are a few that do, like Gravity Kills or Starbase 1. 3. Supercharged Weapons could work, especially if you're still using the Spire consoles (additional crit severity will be more important then), but I don't think the quantum torp firs quick enough to get full stacks of the trait, at least not for long. I usually only use that trait with the full lorca's set because that extra dark matter torp it fires off triggers the trait. That set would work better on a forward facing build than a broadsider like this.

Same with the Phaser version, you can equip one of the beam array and one dual heavy cannon, but no more (you also can't equip the phaser and disruptor versions together, they're considered the same weapons). There are other weapons similar to the Terran Task Force Disruptor weapons that are available in the Dilthium Store section of the reputation called Withering Disruptors. They are similar to the rep project weapons, but without the damage buff that scales with your target's hull that makes them so powerful. These Withering Disruptors you can equip as many as you want.

Honestly I started in the fire at will meta and it was really lame. 1) I actually like the change that makes the other firing modes more worth doing. Though I wish rapid fire cannon got a tad of a buff maybe that would be bad for pvp though. 2) If they make fire at will better it will take over most casual builds. I think it really just makes the game to easy and because of that it should be balanced a bit worse then the other beam mode. Like in my mind the easier it is to use something the worse it should preform just from a mmo meta stand point. 3) I think it builds bad habits out of the gate if someone eventually looks into pvp. Maybe it could use a buff but I do think it should always be balanced worse then overload just because its easier to use and I don't want to see the meta return where new players think they should slot fire at will and not think at all. That is a trap I fell into and I really think the game got way better when I got out of that "just always pick fire at will" trap. Interesting build though and entertaining video!!
