why is all these people complaining i just got mine and went into starbase alert with it slotted in rear slot of my heavy escort carrier and as it was firing at enemies i watched there hull just drop constantly rest of my qear is antiproton mark 12 dhc dbb ans 2 turrets and a mark 12 quantum all purple but i kid you not once i installed that weoapon enemies hull just melted away like butter.

It's taking the rear-torpedo slot on all my characters from now on. Love it...

I love it too, it's brutal on hulls, especially when it crits. Feels good to give the Borg a taste of their own medicine

lol Borg Cutters on Federation ships? Why doesn't Cryptic just open up some cookie-cutter Borg experience like Klingons for you guys?

the reason its in ue is because its reversed engineered from the borg who probably stole it from somebody else and cant klingon get the cutting beam to?

Is anyone else seeing it not show up its bonuses correctly?

If I look at the console, it shows the 2/3 parts of the set equipped and the bonus for it. If I look at the cutting beam, it shows as 0/3 with no bonuses. I haven't noticed any real change in my DPS so I'm wondering if I need to reclaim the console from the rep list (I kept the console I had prior to S7).

Make sure the set gears are of SAME model (Mk 11 or 12)

I mainly hate it because it doesn't fire worth with boff abilities and a chance for less crewmen just made me laugh.

What will that do, the warship sends over 1 less boarding party on cure, the few times it actually even does that vs the small chance to crit no thanks.

Animation might be worth it though if you like it but strictly looking at the fuctionality I'd pass.

Assuming advanced fleet weapons, relevant energy-type consoles, and 2 cannon abilities that you rotate (so that one gets activated every 15 seconds), the cutting beam is worse than just sticking a turret in that slot.

Doesn't matter for that set since there is only one of each available. The weapons are Mk XII and the console doesn't have a level. If it was the Assimilated space set, then it would make a difference.
