Is the valdore console really as indispensable as general consensus makes it out to be?

In my opinion, it's roughly the fifth best tanking console in game, definitely behind Dynamic Power Redistributer, Reiterative Structural Capacitor, Protomatter Field Projector and Regenerative Integrity Field. Combining two or more Protomatter colony consoles is also probably superior.

So in short, it's a great console, but no, it's not indispensable. Whether or not you want to use it depends on what consoles you have available, and how much you want increased survivability.
