Won’t be getting the Gorn ship for a long time very difficult to get, I was hoping this was going to be creative way for anybody to run plasma. I have never heard Spencer‘s name mentioned so many times and somebody else’s video. Really wanted to see your take on the whole thing.

This has been one of my favorite ships in Star Trek, ever since Into Darkness! And it has always played really well in STO too!

I've done a plasma cannon build (basically the same as this) recently on the Valdore and I love it, great ship fantastic damage output (also love the plasma experimental weapon on it), complex plasma is outstanding.

Good to see my build isnt too far off gear wise. Seems like the traits make a huge difference though! I guess I have some grinding to do 😂

Loving the build. You sir, should be on commission from Cryptic as you have increased my wish list again for ships, traits and consoles. Vengeance is a great ship. Like you Nic, this was my first Lobi ship store during the summer sale last year. I currently run a phaser surgical strike build on it, but as I get more of the gear in this build, I’ll try swapping to plasma. Would the Assim Plasma weapons be an alternative to the Gorn/Viridian plasma weapons? Looking forward to the next vid. Keep up the great content

*Sigh i just wish making plasma viable wasn't tied to an expensive lockbox ship. We really need a more accessible alternative to Complex Plasma Fires trait.

Would say it makes it viable just makes it better then everything else in elite content, you you want to run plasma go for it
@axelhopfinger5335 ай бұрын
@@Nic_NB Yeah, nah, before the Gorn Raider and CPF Plasma was probably the weakest energy type for elite content because it's DOT just wasn't strong enough to really make much of a difference in DPS (besides procing too rarely to have much of an effect). I want to use plasma for my new Romulan tank toon, because it can generate persistent aggro via DOT and tanks usually lack the DPS to kill enemies quickly. But without CPF many of the best plasma weapons, like the Viridians, don't even have a DOT proc on them. So CPF really makes huge difference here. Oh well, maybe i'll get the Gorn raider as my event ship this year. But then i'll still have to choose between giving it to my DPS main and my new tank toon.
@peterhans37915 ай бұрын
As someone who rolled plasma prior to the gorn raider, Plasma was always absolutely viable. It's just great now.
@axelhopfinger5335 ай бұрын
@@peterhans3791 Well, what plasma weapons and traits were you using predominantly? Because to me, the unique thing about plasma is that it has a DOT proc. But many Plasma weapon varieties don't have one anymore (Altamid, Viridian) but the CPF trait adds it back in as a guaranteed stacking proc even for those, making them that much more powerful and viable.

It is a very nice ship, fun to fly and perfectly suited for those who likes the more static game style. Well rounded console slots for damage, a hangar bay and 5/3 layout. And cheap as well. 250 mil EC on the exchange.

you could probably put the Buran console on this build to push the plasma fires even further if you wanted....i think thats the right console im thinking of anyway. Edit: scratch that i am thinking of the Dragon fire console never mind.....its been a long day.

It’s a equation, what’s going to be better at making things go quicker and sometimes doing damage yourself is easier
@CasualSAB5 ай бұрын
Supports are best when you know that you'll have a heavy hitter in the run to buff up. With randoms you can end up having your support as top dps in some runs, which means the match will likely be a bit rough.
