Notes[ | ]
- The Starship Perception skill strictly affects Perception. With Season 11.5, abilities that were affected by the legacy skill Starship Sensor Probes are now affected by Control Expertise.
- The tooltip description for the skill is misleading. Once the skill is unlocked, the Starship Perception skill bonus is increased by +100. It does not, necessarily, double the Stealth Detection Rating.
- The Console - Universal - Tachyon Detection Field has both a passive +28.5 Starship Perception skill bonus and an additional +20 Starship Perception skill bonus when the console is activated.
- The Console - Universal - Tachyon Detection Grid has both a passive +28.5 Starship Perception skill bonus and an additional +20 Starship Perception skill bonus when the console is activated.
- The Jem'Hadar Deflector Dish has both a passive +31.9 Starship Perception skill bonus and a StealthSight bonus. While the StealthSight bonus does improve Perception, it does not improve the Starship Perception skill.
