This might be something that can really help other players as well as myself. Ive only been playing a week or so, but really enjoying it.
I find im learning the mechanics fairly well, what each of the weapon types do, the firing arcs, how to spec my skills etc..
however there are some things that im not always familiar with, never mind the names of specific items or where to get them, but rather what some of the statistics and modifiers in the game actually do.
For instance, im noticing on many of the deflectors it mentions things like +% to stealth
Is there a list somewhere, or could someone put a quick guide together on the forums here, or even better....a foundry mission to go along with the fleet introdction
that will explain what each of the statistics do?
Perhaps an STO boot camp kind of thing.
Ive played enough mmos that i get how to do most things and grasp the basics of it, but the individual terminology can trip me up.
Thanks in advance, for putting up for my stupid questions.

I believe now in the tool tips of your skills panel it shows what systems are used by say gravaton deflectors and so on, so it is easier now days to tell what does what.
back at launch it was a total mystery to me and probably many others what all those deflectors did. you can also look up on wiki and others your skill or ability and it will show what systems buff that.

yeah it says all the systems and whatnot but im still not clear on what each one is lol
im starting to get the mechanics of stealth, but things like countermeasures? lots to learn, which is good, its keeping my interest

countermeasures adds to your resistence to being jammed, i believe, got nothing on my ships with that on it atm, and stuff like that, if you have an item with it on right click it and choose info and it will give you a good breakdown of what it actually does and what skills effect it.
