Faeht Intel Waarbird Torpedo Build

Just off the top of my head(and I don't fly torp builds)...

Replace a tactical console with Lorca's Custom Fire Control and a fore-mounted proton torp with the Discovery reputation torpedo. Consider replacing the other with a Kelvin Timeline photon torpedo, as their 4-second reload speed gives them high DPS and make it easy to keep up the maximum benefit from Ceaseless Momentum, a starship Trait available to Fed and Fed-aligned characters through the Exchange (at max, it's +25% Category 1 buff to Kinetic damage, +25 to Kinetic damage resistance).

Meta DECS lineup would still probably be the fleet Colony deflector with the [ColCrit] modifier, Competitive reputation engines with your choice of trigger (I use hull/shield heals set off by Science Team 1, myself), and either the Discovery reputation shield and warp core or the fleet Elite Plasma-Integrated warp core and either Competitive or Iconian reputation shields.

You should probably go with Photonic Officer 2 for cooldown, along with the Chrono-Capacitor space reputation Trait from the Temporal reputation tier.

For personal space Traits, check out Superior Beam/Projectile Training and maybe Superior Accuracy at the fleet K-13, and look into Context is for Kings, Brutal Impetus, and Terran Targeting Systems.

That's all I can remember right now, but it should give you a direction to start working, and I'm sure someone with more experience with torp builds will point out things that wouldn't have occurred to me.
