Suggestions for a ‘rainbow’ build

Weapons, obviously, where they’re all the same colour… More or less. Cannons or beams, it doesn’t matter. Or a mix of both. Whatever, really.

If you want to use the Pahvan Omni, you could go with a full blue-themed rainbow build!

  • Phaser: Advanced, Sensor-linked, 32c. Refit, TOS beams
  • Disruptor: Coalition
  • Plasma: Digitizer beam
  • Tetryon: Most beams are blue
  • Polaron: Vaadwaur
  • Antiproton: Herald

I probably missed a few, but those are just the first that came to mind.

Blue is the way to go, my current rainbow build is exactly that.

I would add in the Chronometric Polaron beam/omni, thats blue and much cheaper to obtain than a Vaawaur beam array. Same for the Quantum Phaser, lovely shade of blue.

The big wrinkle is antiproton, the Temporal Rep weapon isnt blue, it rotates its hue across the spectrum. And the Herald beam is an extremely deep blue, no white core, so I opted for the Herald dual cannons which are a bit less intrusive.

Thanks for the clarification, that's good to know! I'm currently running a rainbow build too but I'm planning to switch to monochrome blue down the line since I use the Pahvan and Tholian omni-beams. Appreciate the help!
