    Just looking for an opinion. As much as I like the set, using both the reinforced armaments console and phaser omni beam, I'm wondering if it's worth it on my Constitution class. When I swapped to it from the Odyssey, I essentially just copied the build, removing an RCS console in favour of the T6 Connie console. The Connie is a lot more manoeuvrable however so leaving aside the haste bonus, I'm not sure the extra 15% speed is really a make or break factor of the build.

    I wanted to try out the sensor linked phasers for a change over my PEN ones as I've had a set of them in the bank for a long time, but I'd need to lose the omni beam as I don't like mixing weapon visuals, so that blows the 2 piece bonus. Just in 2 minds if it's worth it or not.

    I like the Omni for the Haste, I even use it with my sensor-linked phasers, I just match it with the kinetic cutting beam so I have two beams Tongue Out. I really don't care for the set bonuses, reinforced armaments is good but there are better fish in the sea, so yeah I just use the Omni.

    Nothing ventured, nothing gained - I'll need to make a few tweaks to the mods over the next few days but I'll take it out and see how I get on. If it doesn't go to plan, I can press the sensor linked weapons into service on an alt when AoD launches.

    Cheers all!
