    if you want purttttty kabooms get the quantum phase Wink

    Speaking of Kaboom...

    If you want some mad pew-pew, dakka-dakka projectile spam then you could grab the Ferengi missile launcher.
    But having said that there is a free version from one of the Lukari missions so that’s probably a better choice.
    The damage is rubbish but it looks mental.
    I have both missle launchers on one of my builds. I love them. XD

    I miss the OG Quantum Phase torpedo.
    When first added it would proc off EVERY SINGLE PROJECTILE so on TS3 you can imagine the spectacle of that going off! You could annihilate an entire fleet in one spread as it would instantly wipe their shields away completely and then impact bare hull.
    It was glorious until people complained about server performance....bah!!!

    I got the Disco dark matter purple torpedo launcher thingy. Now, do I add it to my crystal torpedo and lose a herald DHC, or replace the crystal torp? Hmmm... I'm running TS3 and CRF3. 3 DHCs and a torp up front, 2 turrets and an omni in the back. I'm gonna double up on the torps. Make things go BOOM!

    Thanks for the tip on the purple torp!

    The thing is with an escort like the Defiant, you could drop the Dark Matter torpedo and reslot the Quantum Phase, while the 2pc disco set is nice for a 25% crit severity buff, I’m leaning towards the dmg resistance and shield drain from the QPT. Lorcas custom fire controls are a must have slot for the Crit Chance buff though.

    It's a Risian T6 Pilot Escort. I haven't had a chance to try out the new DM Torp yet. I have to reset my trays after switching a few things around. Then I'll run Japori and Carraya to see how it all shakes out. I just hit level V in the Disco rep, so I have to turn everything toward making it to VI. Then I can look at the console. This is a new KDF toon, so I have LOTS of work to do still.

    Ooh! Pretty!

    I like the Delphic dual anti-proton banks and the chroniton dual banks, since I have an AP build. The special modifiers are cool and the beam colors are unique. Some of the weapons are nice to have and when you upgrade them, though some you cannot reengineer them. I think I have all the energy types for torpedoes now, which is good, one is on the lobi store, if you plan to use your tact consoles to piggy back bank on the power of the energy torps.

    But back to OP's (Setalia's) Q:

    "Which Lobi Torp is best?"
    I'm thinking the consensus has to be: None of them, really. You can get a better return on investment by looking into rep gear, or story gear, or even Fleet holding gear. Save your Lobi for important things like Beagles and Tholian toys! Oh, and the Advanced Herald Antiproton Beam Projector Gun Staff thing. You need one of those.

    While the herald antiproton beam projector is nice, you'd wanna pick up Phaser Full Auto Rifle (Dsc) for 50 lobi, that thing SHREDS with [Dmg]x4 [CrtD/Dm]

    Kinda going off topic here - but while probably a great weapon DPS wise, I really dislike seeing everyone running around with them - it has such a huge non-Star Trek feel (in shape, effect and sound) - most ground TFOs feel more like Im in some World of Warcraft instance... I wish they'd nerf the hell out of them so everyone goes back to something with a better Trek feel to it.

    Oh, and the Advanced Herald Antiproton Beam Projector Gun Staff thing. You need one of those.
    I have something similar, equipped on one of my BOffs. It's a non-lobi version, probably from a lockbox? I got it from the Exchange last year.

    Ah, it's called Herald Antiproton High Density Beam Projector.

    Ah, it's called Herald Antiproton High Density Beam Projector.
    The Herald Antiproton Projectors come in three flavors:
    High Density Beam
    Split Beam
    Stun Beam

    Herald Antiproton weapons can be obtained from the [Special Equipment Pack - Herald Antiproton Weapons], which has a chance to drop from the [Infinity Lock Box] and the [Herald Lock Box].

    So, there ya go.

    - - - Updated - - -
    While the herald antiproton beam projector is nice, you'd wanna pick up Phaser Full Auto Rifle (Dsc) for 50 lobi, that thing SHREDS with [Dmg]x4 [CrtD/Dm]
    I may have to check them out the next time I visit the bank (That's where my Lobi live - in the bank).

    Kinda going off topic here - but while probably a great weapon DPS wise, I really dislike seeing everyone running around with them - it has such a huge non-Star Trek feel (in shape, effect and sound) - most ground TFOs feel more like Im in some World of Warcraft instance... I wish they'd nerf the hell out of them so everyone goes back to something with a better Trek feel to it.
    I have the same problem and while I have the rifle myself (and Solace is right, it SHREDS) I don't use it very often. I also don't like the design of it, I'm a die-hard modern erea Trek fan anyway.
    I use the Terran Task Force railgun... pardon, rifle myself Wink
