Heck, even two quantum torps with the 3 DOffs will give you a constant stream of better torpedoes that don't get shot down and won't blow up from your first victim's warp core beach.
I underlined the issue in your post. I'm talking about one romulan torpedo. It's really more effective than a quantum torp in terms of DPS, in the situations I mentionned (a lot of NPCs/ battleship+ NPCs).
I've been getting better results with a romulan torp on my tac/krenn destroyer or with my sci/mobius. The quantum torp is fine but this one clearly out-dps it. Of course, there are many counters players can use, and this is why i didn't post it in the PvP subforums, but most NPCs have almost no counters to that. Except the gorn, but i've told it earlier.
let's not be giving cryptic any more ideas for things to neuter into uselessness, please....for how much it costs and how long it takes to unlock, it should be strong
Agreed.
So OP you want to nerf a very high end , very hard to get, very expensive item because it does well in one situation.
Am I the only one who thinks that an item that takes so much effort and time and resources to unlock should be worth the effort?
if you find it over powered then don't use it at all.
But seriously, many have spend dil and romulan marks to get them so nerfing them now will be...sad

You dont use quantum to make dps. For that you use photons. And they can be on par with one Hyper-Plasma with one launcher alone.
Can't do more damage than 5k DPS with your Eng-Cruiser?
You are flying it wrong.

It's new? NERF IT TILL IT BLEEDS
Think of it as a siege torpedo: great against big, slow and immobile targets, but against everything else...not so much.
I have to agree with this, having used the Romulan torps extensively for a while now on both my MVAE and Chell Grett Warship, alongside DHC's. But there is another reason I use them that has not been touched on here...they are target-able. My convoluted and slightly insane form of logic tells me that if I let a string of these off the chain then the enemy will target them and not me. And believe it or not it works most of the time. A lot of people will say that target-able torpedoes are about as useful as teats on a nun, but I've found them very useful as a distraction.
Just my two cents, for what it's worth.
