I think requiring 4x of these highly specialized officers is a bit much.

By All means, Slotting 4x, Should increase Crit chance. but I think it should be 2x Deflector officer/2x diagnostic technician +2 other eng/ops.

what do you think?

I think those universal slots should see the same benefit from slotting in an armory officer. An armory officer would be in charge of maintaining firearms, and training the crew on them right?

same would be true for other ones,

Fabrication engineer seems a reasonable universal thing for these missions, (fabrication="Go build something") but deflector officers should benefit experimental deflector upgrade, shield distribution officer should benefit ship shields. Armory officer or shield distribution officer should benefit Personal shield generator. etc.
