I recently hit level 57 and it seems that my ship keeps getting torn to shreds by every opponent I go up against. The same problem happens to me in ground combat, it just seems that I lose hitpoints too fast and I don't do enough damage. Opponents are meaty and I'm paper thin.
Can someone explain the ways builds work and how to make a good one? The beginners guides that I've been looking at are a confusing jumble that is either too confusing or too simple for me.
My ship build looks like this -
My ground build is pretty basic, with a tier 13 pistol and the best armor that I've chanced upon.
What do I need to be doing?

Hello StellarPyro! While we would love to offer you assistance, there are missing details (such as your skill tree) that we need in order to assist you with our full capacity.
There is already a template you can use to help us with this information. Please fill out this form and then we will get back to you.
Of course if you do not like that template you can always make one at Sto Academy if that is more to your taste.

FYI if you're playing the Delta Quadrant missions, I remember those being harder than normal because the Vaadwaar use a lot of sciency space magic on you.
You should probably go for the Solanae Space Set that you get by doing A Step Between Stars mission. If I remember, it's a pretty good starter set until you start unlocking some rep gear.
You're an escort ship using what looks like a torpedo build. I'm not saying that torpscorts are unviable or anything, but they are certainly much trickier to pull off than a beam build, you need good doffs and everything to increase your rate of fire because the shared reload times on a lot of torps can really kill your damage output otherwise. To make it work correctly I recommend studying torp builds a bit more.
Sorry I just realized this post is over a month old.

Your build needs a big overhaul, that is what I can see from your used BO Abilities and Gear.
