Answering questions from @everyone is something I absolutely love doing as part of the Star Trek Fleet Command community! That's exactly what I'm doing here in this video to break down the advantages of various strategies. There is (shockingly) not a universal answer, BUT, we can help determine what's best for your playstyle! Let's discuss!
Topics covered:
1. What strategy I usually use, and why it might not be the one you use!
2. Why different ships need different strategies!
3. PVP, Armadas, PVEs, and the various things to consider!
4. If you have any game mechanic questions, feel free to drop those questions in the comments!

For warships I save the cargo bay for last, miners I do the mining laser and cargo bay first. Generally speaking I go with defense first before I upgrade the weapons.

@jamesbell7696 Год назад

Good to see an expert reinforce what I already do. It's nice to learn new things, too, but it's also reassuring to find that I've been doing things in a good way already.

@RevDeuce Год назад

Glad to help

@DragonRz76 Год назад

I usually do the thing the type of ship emphasizes. IE, armor for battleships, impulse engines on interceptors and shield gens on explorers, then the big guns. Miners are special for me. If i need warp range then warp engines, if not, then cargo holds followed by mining lasers. Guns are always last for me on miners.

@1FrankieBones1 Год назад

Half the time when I'm upgrading a ship its for competing in a leaderboard, so I'll find what parts I can upgrade that cost the most

@EmperorSztoid Год назад

I tested long ago that upgrading weapons first gets you more kills. Miners: Cargo, Drill, Warp Warships: Weapons, Hull, Shield

@majorsam1400 Год назад

Love it! I always do wonder. Glad I was basically on the right track already, especially as I prep to blitz my new Enterprise in the SLB this weekend!

@daloira1988 Год назад

Thanks Rev! This was really helpful!

@Adam_9th_Legions_Son Год назад

Always great advice!

@dfry1912 Год назад

As always, excellent video sir

@CoreyRaines Год назад

Before watching this video.. I normally upgrade warp 1st then whatever part increases the power the most.

@XHunter442 Год назад

i upgraded everything lol >.< ty for the video Rev Deuce and LLAP!

@urayoanmiranda Год назад

And that's something I always wonder. Thanks Rev!

@RevDeuce Год назад

You bet!

@Redbull_5757 Год назад

I like to upgrade the most "expensive " component first. Usually thats the big gun. Then the armor. Then either the impulse engines for interceptors, shields for explorers and weapons for battleships. Miners get the drill next. Warp core and cargo hold are always last. I will be changing that up now that i know miners have higher warp range. Thanks!

@pokeypso Год назад

Great info! Thanks!

@RevDeuce Год назад

Glad it was helpful!

@chungus3707 Год назад

I do the shields and hull first the the biggest gun , then the either warp range or other cannons

@michaelwilkes758 Год назад

Great video Rev! Must have been a great suggestion from an amazing person! 100% Charisma Efficiency!!

@rickmarr8784 Год назад

For me it depends on the ship, like you said no point in upgrading weapons on a miner. I usually go for warp first on a miner just so I can get to those systems I want to mine at that most people cant get to yet. As for war ships I usually leave the cargo last. War ships have small cargo to begin with and we are not using to mine or even take in large amount of stuff.

@vassagood Год назад

I always do weapons and shield/armor/impulse engines first for warships. Mining ships, I always do Mining laser and cargo hold. Specialty ships really depend on which one.

@johan23501 Год назад

I normally start with upgrading Shields/Armor (hull health, etc) first. First defense, then attack. But that's just my style. For miners: first cargo then mininglaser + the rest of the components.

@therkyn Год назад

Rev. L40-41 have real challenges getting 4* without a meridian. Assuming your L46 you should be well beyond the initial 4* nodes. Let the little meridians live! :).

@NugeFireball Год назад

Great video Rev! I am ops 39 and I use 2 meridian's (warp 80) and amalg (warp 100) for mining in deep space. My feesha is teir locked until 41, current warp is only 53. My t3 defiant is warp 100, is my work horse if I am not relocating to deep space.

@RevDeuce Год назад

Very nice!

@ikhurus5878 Год назад

I tend to go defence first, offence after 🤷

@StarlaMorgana Год назад

Your vids are amazing! Thank you so much. I learn so fucking much of them❤

@TheThomasw324 Год назад

Awesome video as always RD! I'd love a video outlining strategies for ship parts. G4 rare and G5 seem to be mostly pay walled.

Raise your hand if you had no idea you could swipe up and down on components..........just me?

@christophermackle8683 Год назад

@MiguelSapp-jb3ju Год назад

Rev. I have maxed my ships but I find that others have better strength than mine. For example my Bortas is maxed. Others have their Bortas at 5 million or more.

@fantasytavvy688 Год назад

Thank you…Meridians and Amalgams need to be blown up while mining in DS 😂

@PhoenixPlays669 Год назад

FACTS

@erikmarshall5383 Год назад

What’s wrong with using meridians? It saves me Tons in mats that I’m saving for Epic ships, and why would i care about “getting smacked off a node?” Overnight set it and forget it, as you have said about horizons in 4* hubs. Merdians get you there Way faster in the 30’s and can start building up 4* as you begin a transition to the 40’s

@gtaadayinthelife4592 Год назад

Agreed. Hull first. Gotta stay alive in order to shoot lol.

@GabrielGorske Год назад

I would disagree regarding 3 specialty ships the vidar, talios, and mantis. The weapons are the bread and butter of these ships and they have a massive weapons boost. I find that if I upgrade anything else first it doesn't improve what level ships I am able to kill but a single weapons upgrade could move me up from say a 40 to a 41 red for daily grinding. The weapons on those ships have just such high multipliers that the weapons almost always make sense to do first.

@RevDeuce Год назад

I said exactly that in the video lol

@1FrankieBones1 Год назад

I upgrade the cargo bay first on mantis.

@GabrielGorske Год назад

@@RevDeuce must have missed it then sorry about that. All I heard was the warp first for specialty ships.

@arcticdreds3284 Год назад

LMAO 🤣 Battle Barge up!! 🦾🚢⛴️🛳️

@IknowImNotCrazyYoumightbe Год назад

for PVP, i upgrade shields and armor first. then weapons

@mcsweet1966 Год назад

Hey thanks for the Video, I`m a lvl 27 low spender and I only worked on the Romulan associate so My fed is at -1.6M Klingon at -644k how can I fix that so I can dual Rom/Klingon ?

@kainoat Год назад

I will always mine in DS with my Amalgam and Meridian don't care what you say! 😛

@RevDeuce Год назад

Well fine then! *stomps angrily out of the chat*

@robertderamo8943 Год назад

Amalgam and meridian are the only miners that can get that far in a sustainable way. 3 mats to get. You can’t disco 3 miners every day with a protected cargo of only about 140k - 150k. You need t7 faction miner with warp upgrade just to get to the first 2 systems with grush. Scotty won’t do it.

@barkman1739 Год назад

Holy sh*t that repair bill (bar at the top, not your Pilum, but that too) 😭

@RevDeuce Год назад

yay home ownership!

@geeemm135 Год назад

i rather have the difficulty of what ship to upgrade first (and not which components) valdore and cerritos are battling for explorer parts... pilum, defiant and talios battling for interceptor parts.

@pcoyle2007 Год назад

Why can’t we get reputation points for kills with other factions like we do with FKR?

@TR-kk2bh Год назад

Short question: can I stack the Cerri and the Defiant Buffs on a single ship?

@RevDeuce Год назад

Yes, you can1

@TR-kk2bh Год назад

@@RevDeuce Thanks, the blue Sphere still ruined me at 39 despite all buffs on everyone so it can stack, just not enough xD

@dalecheck2455 Год назад

Warp range is the first upgrade you should do. As you go deeper into deep space you will be warp range blocked. Which is bs. Higher tier hostiles yield higher tier rewards.

@Speegv2 Год назад

What reduces the cost of the Cerritos ability?

@JimRienheart Год назад

Warp drive upgrades

@NathanielMiller Год назад

I would disagree, at lower levels. Early on, warp range is much more important, as you're pushing to get to mission sites, mining nodes, and faction hostiles. Once you have ships that can get to ~Warp 50, you'll be effectively stuck there for a while, so THEN switch focus to hull and weapons first.

@justQthx Год назад

1st

@oleonard7319 Год назад

in the 30's warp range is useless over 80 (except for maybe 39 )

@rayvannostrand7575 Год назад

A video on the ways scopley rips you off and makes upgrading the ships suck. Optimal level for Talios mantis etc...to get least screwed by scopley upgrade penalty.

@WouterVerbruggen Год назад

Also keep in mind that the crit chance can be different between weapons. Btw I always use Amal/feesha/meri to DS mine at night, always plenty of mines free those times and stays UPC till morning (edit: and getting shot is the risk I take ;) )
