Hey, 

so in the last few days i have tried to fight against Borg alone and lets say without any real good results. Also many other People tried in smaller groups and didnt really manage to do it. The Borg are in my opinion way to beefy, as i think level 1 Spheres should be easy to kill with a proper Weapon setting alone. 
So maybe the Borg could use a small rework as we have Tier 1 to 3 Spheres, Cubes and even Tactical Cubes which all of them arent really any touchable. 

It could be done with the Sensor array that we need to locate Weak points which we need to target or anything like that. 

Also how about getting those other Models from the Model Pack like the Enterprise as a Boss option ?

I agree on the fact that borgs should definitely be more killable. As it stands, most player settle on Level 1/2 spheres at most. Cubes are a rare sight and even rarer to see them being beaten.
I personally think that all spheres should be able to get killed by a small team (2-6 persons), and cubes by a big team (6-12 persons). Tactical Cubes of course being the cool kids and staying at a level that only cheaters can beat.

As for other boss models, it's true it could get some variety, although I hardly see the enterprise as a great opponent, given the server is more or less ST Themed, having to fight "the good guys" would feel off.
Why not other bosses from other franchises though, I could easily imagine a boss fight with Cylon Basestars, Thargoid Interceptors or even other ST vilains like 8472.
Main problem with those of course stays to find the right models and assets to use like sounds and whatnots. Not to mention that those ships typically dont use the same kind of weaponry as the Borg do.

Simulation fights like in the Series or Mirror Universe Confused
I remember an old post also suggested NPC's that invade ships, like borg drones. Although nav might be hard for that because you'd have to calculate it per ship.

It's also possible this post may be ignored because there is actually a 'suggestion' type on the issue tracker
