Some considerations to take before entering a space combat with your ship in Star Trek Online:
The battle will be uncommonly focused on balancing your shield and positioning of your ship. In Star Trek Online, you will have to manage up to 4 shields that basically surrounds you in the front, left, right and back. By transfering power you can either focus on 1 of the 4 shields or balance the power to have all the shields equally defence.
Positioning is key in space ship combat, not only will it effect your defence, but your offence too. Imagine having two phasers on the side of the ship. To fire both phaser simultaneously, the ship needs to fire from the side and your shields would be transfer to the side facing the enemy as well, to reduce damages. Select weapon that gives you more angle in your attacks, while controling your velocity with the throttle.
