I'll be posting some Dev quotes here as I come accross ones that give tips.

First one:
I don't think many people know this so I thought I would put it out there. You can improve your turn speed by adding energy to auxiliary. Last night my wife got her first cruiser and was complaining about the turn speed. I helped her adjust and save new energy settings for attack mode. I reduced attack energy and defense energy a little and brought the auxiliary energy to 45 (50 with bonuses). She said that helped a lot. If you try it let me know how it works out.

Second:
Feb 25th State of the Game

(¯)- ACTIVE -(¯)
Captain Vekk of the USS Night Raven
GLOBAL: @SMALLTALK
(¯)(¯)(¯)(¯)(¯)(¯)

- retired -
LOTRO: (¯)Navris - the Captain.
WAR: Prodith the Magus
Daoc: Farges da Mauler, Nightraven, Prodith, Synhotep, Synaten
Tabula Rasa: Vekk (on Orion server)(¯)
EQ 2: Prodith, Prodyth - and other variations on the name
(¯)EQ 2: Nightmind the Coercer

Something that has confused me is the skill points and ranks. However I came accross a post today that helped me understand a little.

I noticed that I was getting skill points but hadn't actually leveled. That got me confused. The key I was missing:

Quote:

It’s important to understand that you gain grades by earning skill points, but only gain ranks by spending skill points.

Code:

Rank Total SP Spent
Lieutenant 1500
Lt Commander 6700
Commander 18700
Captain 34700
Admiral 52700

Below is a weapons overview. What I like about the way STO implemented weapons is that it leaves a lot of customization which in turn leads to many many different play styles.
