looks good.A bit short on defence for anything id fly of that class but looks like it has good damage output

[Wupteedo]

Capt Huck, looks good, but I have a question?  How come no 360 Omni Phasers or Borg Cutting Beam on aft end?  Also, there is some mention of a Mining Drill available on Federation ships.   Curious.

Visuals. Plain and simple.  I still try to keep things as RPGish as possible in the MMO rainbow of things.

You had me at x3 Technicians - AUX to Batt. <everyone drinks>

[VADM Wulfric Richter CoS]

Aux to bat has come back into the dps meta. The ship looks good, Huck. Well done, sir.

[CAPT Huckabee]

Updated build. The Gargarin class trait allowed me to run Attack Pattern Beta and still have a Torpedo Spread to make me happy finally with this ship's limited slots for Tactical without having to use Aux2Batt

With that said, I also switched it back to the Damage Control duty officers build.  I found that the Aux2Batt build was too much on the squishy side for my taste like FCAPT Hill said.  So happy with this build I finally feel satisfied with it to actually use it as my main ship.

Long live the Excelsior class.

A wise man once said: "The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain."

Who was the "wise man?"

Also, I can think of another very wise man from North Carolina who needs a ship named after him --

North Carolina, the home of God, Guns, BBQ, and Jesse Helms, Peace be upon Him.

I been getting a good bit of praise/questions in-game from PM's or Team Chat on this build and what she is doing.  I take that as a good sign and makes me feel better about the resources I had to spend up to get what I needed and the real world money I put down on the Gargarin class ship even though I ain't using it.  (Could not stand the ship did not fit in the shield's FX bubble.)  This classic is here to stay for sure.
