Strategist Secondary Specialization

Strategist Secondary Specialization


Star Trek Online Season 11.5 gives Captains access to our new Strategist Secondary Specialization. Skilled Strategists are masters of planning military action, issuing orders to anticipate and match the ever-changing flow of battle. The Strategist Specialization embraces this fluidity, offering a selection of abilities which can shift between offensive and defensive effects at will. This specialization is Space-based, and passively increases your ship’s maximum Shield Capacity.
