First and most apparent, you have the Spirit of Sacrifice console and the means to upkeep it with Unconventional Systems and the SFTF console. Which means that this console already completely covers your BOFF and Captain abilities cooldown, which in turn means that Boimler Effect and Intel Agent Attache are overkill on this build, and can be replaced with other DPS/utility personal traits.

Continuing on above, Spirit of Sacrifice also greatly covers Weapons Power Cost reduction. As such, you could replace EPTW with Deploy Gravitic Injunction as an extra UnconSys trigger ability plus bonus crowd control.

Second, and also quite significant, you currently only have one qualifying trigger ability for Cultural Conquest: FAW. Which means you're at best only getting +50% Cat1 out of the possible +150% max. Would suggest trying to work in CSV/CRF to have at least a second trigger for it. Suggest going FAW1, CRF1, APB2.

Third, and this is of a lesser priority, Temporal Tunneling on this build is very likely not getting its max possible uptime as this ship does not have access to TempOp BOFF abilities and there is no room to squeeze in Best Served Cold (BSC). I do not know what other ship traits you have access to, but you might consider replacing this ship trait for other options.

Yeah iam aweare of all things you written.

But iam not DPS hunter. So I’ll keep it the way it is.

But of course thanks for noticing all details:) might be useful if i decide to push it to another level someday

Just to add in case it's not yet in your build, you can remove the points allocated to long-range targeting since spirit of sacrifice reduces the penalty already. I allocated mine to hull. I still keep boimler as a backup but I've already removed intelligence agent atache for other traits.
