Joseph is the fifth Federation Physics mission specialist. Not much in itself, but when you consider that the Delta Quadrant missions are built for specialists, you might opt for a Nekrit Supply Depot with Spacedoor over the Caretaker's Array and Home Away From Home.
There are six Delta Quadrant missions that can be increased by 5 points simply with Joe and his Physics. One of these requires a Vidiian, but the other five are easily accessible with a Non-Aligned personnel (which can be supplied by the many dual-affiliation Feds). Aftermath and Acquire Technology are suited best to Carey. Both are worth 40 points after Joe takes the stage.
Not only does Physics help with the missions in Voyager, he goes a long way toward avoiding Astral Eddy and Quantum Fissure. He, with his fellow mission specialist Leah Brahms, can cure The Swarm as well.
Combos:
- Assign Mission Specialists + Joseph Carey + Soren + Reinitialize Warp Reaction: Take a 35 point mission to 45 in the blink of an eye.
- Alyssa Ogawa (Prem) + Gibson + Ensign Davis + Soren + Joseph Carey + Senior Staff Meeting: Not much seniority in that crew, but together they can complete four missions and fall a skill short of three more.
