The Wraith

[Warborn]

You have to see the colour. Otherwise you wouldn't know what side the rider was on, and would get a grief point for blasting a ally to the ground.

Not if your crosshairs turns red when it passes over a visible enemy, for example. After all, if there weren't some more accurate way to tell friend from foe at a distance, there'd be cases of FF fire all over the place, especially with Vanu/NC players, as their vehicles aren't as distinclty coloured as the jet black and crimson TR vehicles are.
