Would depend on your Spec and Style of play.
With the free recent respec's it is very simple to get the right spec points in the right places.
IF SOLO: Basically with Escorts you need to spec both cannons and beam weapons. Stick with a type and spec your captain with those in mind. Using all Plasma then no need to spec in phasors. This also makes it easier to select Tactical Bridge Equipment with + to those weapon types. For instance if your using all plasma cannon and beam wepaons, then you could use +beam, + Plasma with etc.
On my Tact Escort I used all Plasma beam and cannon weapons and using the 'beta 3 tactical ability' I could rip apart anything of an equal level or up to +3 above me very quickly. Killing fighters in the first pass.
Look at the weapon procs and decide which is for you and suits your play style.
DUO PLAY: 1 could spec beam and another Cannons with the object of the first one in takes out shield then cannons incomming behind for the takedown.
Meant to post the weapon procs to help:
Phaser - Chance to disable a random subsystem (weapons, shields, engines, auxiliary).
Disruptor - Chance to debuff damage resistance.
Plasma - Chance to proc a DoT effect.
Tetryon - Chance to proc shield damage.
Polaron - Chance to drain 25 power from all subsystems.
Antiproton - Bonus crit damage.
