Star Trek Online Advanced Combat Tactics

Posted Tue, Feb 09, 2010 by Medeor

Star Trek Online provides plenty of margins for those players who are used to routine and safe combat scenarios. For those who want to really pump up the volume though, there are many ways to add spice (and extra damage) to the combat combos. Today we look at some options for adding more punch to your party both on the ground and up in space.

Dalmarus and I have a running debate over the best tactic for the fighter targets during a conflict with a battlecruiser. In early levels the fighters don’t seem to do much damage to my ship, so my philosophy is to let them tickle my shields while I destroy the head of the snake (battle cruiser). Dalmarus believes that knocking out the little guys is the best strategy so the Starfleet gains unfettered access to focus on the big guy.

Read the rest of today's Advanced Combat Tactics and then chime in and share with us your combat prowess in our forums.
