Higby on Air/AA balance.. Is it the fast track to Airside?

[Soothsayer]

When I agree with Figment, I'm all-in, on-board with what he says. This topic is a time where that is happening.

The teamwork issue is moot because the ESF's aren't required to use teamwork.

Cost is negligible in some arguments as it relates to skyguards because they also cost resources. With regards to G2A infantry weapons, the fact that they don't cost anything doesn't really have any bearing because they are just so bad. The most effective scenario for a grounder is when the ESF is flying away, otherwise there's too great of a chance for the rocket to be dodged (which is fine, skill is not a bad thing, but infantry needs to have a fighting chance).

Basically if you have spent the certs/SC to specialize into something, equipped that specialization (to the detriment of effectiveness in other areas) and get put in a situation where the specialization is geared towards you should BEAST whatever you're geared out to take out.

That is not the case with AA. Then to add insult to injury, ESF's completely ignore that design decision and are very capable, effectively gaining specialization grade effectiveness without the drawback of sucking whatever they have not specialized into.
