Someone explain something on the ship hud.
Posted on 05 November 16 at 20:26 Bottom left corner, on the left of the shields, is the following icons going up and down. orange blue yellow purple What are these? Below that going left to right and using the right d-pad, what is the four icons? Videos I made of Xbox games on Windows 8.1 - https://www.youtube.com/user/mosindesire
Posted on 06 November 16 at 00:37 Been awhile since I played it, but I think it's weapon, shield, auxiliary and speed from top to bottom. The number on the right is the max uh..."effectiveness" and the number on the left is what it is right now. The icons at the bottom allow you to choose what your crew focuses on. So if you choose the weapon icon, your maximum number for weapons goes up (from 100 to 125 I think?) and making them focus on shields will make the shield max go up, etc. "Slutty outfit? You're one to talk." "This isn't slutty, it's strategically placed."
Posted on 07 November 16 at 17:18, Edited on 07 November 16 at 20:00 by Ironshield The icons on the right of your shields that you can adjust with the directional pad are for Weapons, Shields, Engines and Auxiliary and that's going left to right as well as top to bottom for the icons above those. Each setting has certain preset power levels that everything will be adjusted to, such as if you have Weapons selected then your default Weapons power will be 100/100, Shields will be 50/50 and Engines/Auxiliary will be 25/25. The numbers mean current power level/default power level. Various pieces of equipment as well as certain skills can boost your current power level. Standard effectiveness is 50 so if your Shields power level was 50 then your shields would have 100% of their potential strength but at 100 Shields power they'll have 200% of their potential strength and the same applies whether your power level is 100 in Weapons, Shields, Engines or Auxiliary. Similarly, if your power level in any particular system is 25 then it'll have 50% effectiveness.
FAQ – Star Trek Online Beginners Tips and Tricks
44th flee t’s star trek online beginners guide, 90% of all frequently asked questions:.
Escorts – do heavy damage with their dual heavy cannons, but weak hull and shields. Compact designs, very maneuverable. Preferred for a ‘fighter-like’ playstyle. Cruisers – average damage through all beams but strong hulls and decent shields. Lowest turn rate. Preferred ‘tank’ class. Science Vessels – specializes on healing, debuffing and damage through exotic powers like Gravity Well. Average hulls but strong shields. Are the ‘space wizards’ in STO. Small Craft – Shuttles and Fighters. Weak damage, weak hull and shields, but the fastest and required for some unique missions.
There are also many additional sub-classes including Heavy Escorts, Dreadnoughts, Battlecruisers, Carriers with fighters, Reconnaissance and Intel Science Vessels.
The Klingon, Romulan and Dominion factions have comparable classes but with extra unique specialities, such as (battle) cloaks, Raider flanking damage or Singularity powers. Additional cross-faction ships have even more unique abilities.
Go here for some simple starting builds you can copy – this is very basic but serve you well while leveling. They work for Federation, Klingon and Romulan comparable ships (eg Escorts – Bird of Preys – Warbirds).
Trust us; we’ve been there, done that. As in real life, knowledge is (fire) power – knowing how and especially why a certain mechanic works does more for your DPS than just slapping a specific weapon on your ship. There’s math involved, but just playing the game you’ll understand the basics pretty quickly.
But okay, twist my arm, these are all bonnie ships cap’n!
Compiled by our resident 44th Ship Master Sukobi , the following are considered the top tier ships in-game at this time (March 2021). New ships are always released so this list changes every year.
Inquiry Battlecruiser and the Fleet Shephard / Qugh Battlecruiser — These are all dynamite energy beam/cannon ships with the same ship layout: Qugh has battle cloak, and Inquiry adds Intel abilities to the Miracle Worker seat. Fearsome ships.
Vaadwaur MW Juggernaut — Unrivaled in the Dual Heavy Cannon space, this is a difficult ship to explain but it’ll do the job and has the hull of a tank.
Tzen-tar Dreadnought Carrier — mixed carrier/torpedo. 6 tactical consoles, 5 forward weapons, 2 hangars, and still 2 aft weapons. The same mobility as the Inquiry/Shephard/Qugh. Strong hull and massive shields.
Tholian Jorogumo Carrier — Best of the support carriers with two hangars, heavy shields and Gravity Well. This ship is about being able to squeeze maximum support out of every single gear slot.
Klingon D7 , Federation Constitution MW Flight Deck Carriers would likely be the most ideal standard dps-based tanks. Plus classic lines to boot.
There is much more to cover and for a more in-depth overview of these ships see this detailed post (44th members only).
Just remember, buying these ships are no guarantee ; you will still need to outfit them with top-end gear for their max potential.
Also, as a 44th Fleet member, you will now have access to superior and unique Fleet versions of many Federation, Romulan and Klingon ships (extra console slot, increased stats etc).
No longer a true ‘must have’, but the Plasmonic Leech console , especially for power-starved Romulan ships, is a good investment. Another nice one is the Sustained Radiant Field console from the Iconian Reputation.
Like ground/ship traits, there are always new consoles and set bonuses changing the ‘meta’ of the game – adapt !
So, with those CrtH:CrtD ratios, if you want to get the most possible out of your ship, you buff [CrtD] on weapons and [CrtH] on consoles.

Overal yes, but Star Trek Online has been running since its Beta launch on October 22, 2009, and the truth is that the game-engine is a spaghetti-like coding mess - it's a unique engine whose original coders have long moved on.
