6 sec cooldown

Tholian ships only?

Yes Sir, only Tholian < needed more letters to submit post lol

They have a 10 second cooldown, ive seen it happen and the stats support it.

doffs can sometimes make it go quicker which is why you may have seen 6 seconds.

ah thanks for correcting me then!, sorry about that. you're right its 10 secs

No,
They can only be obtained with one of the 3 Tholian ships.
The Widow fighter has the shuttle version, the Orb and Recluse have the normal ship versions. Once you have them, you can put them on any ship you like however.

i think Thermionic had been Proton.

Thanks for sharing the info.

The HY version is best for full effect, but its slower and can be shot down. Also you want to keep away from splash back when it detonates or you will be affected.

Sorry for the bump, but you folks forgot to mention one important detail - they look absolutely amazing. Seperate Orbs of energy tied together by energy beams that orbit one another. When I first saw them I was pretty much

*ahem*

I only got an S one with the Widow Fighter. Are the stats on the normal versions from the capital ships different? Judging from the S version the damage is really a bit on the low side. But with two of them, 3 projectile doffs should produce a respectable rate of fire.
