Seraphin and faction diferences

There is two arguments with sheilds, one is hp and the other is cost, on a cost/hp scale the list is reversed.

T2 sheilds come up quicker, you can also do sheilds micro and turn off sheilds so they don't get splash damage then turn them on when others turn off from damage, takes alot of work but works the best.

Best to counter experimental with what they are weak at, if no t3maa use air,big it's a air use asf, etc

That's not true. For example Aeon has the second highest shield hp, and they also have the lowest cost/shield hp.

size of shields also matter

@femtozetta I didn't want to look it up to be completely correct, see has worst cost/hp and I thought cybran has best?

Cybran has the worst cost/hp on the shields that are comparable to the other faction's T2 and T3, and Sera has the second best.

Cybran is at the top of the list you posted

Really, that's your takeaway from the list? How about the other 4 versions of the shield that are all worse than Aeon/Sera, and where the highest version for each tier is the worst overall?

Sera has the best shields outright.
Out of the others, it depends on how much you value aoe, construction cost, assist cost, and shield strength. I'd put UEF as 2nd, with Cybran and Aeon fighting it out for last place; in the context of defending against a T3 arti I'd rather be Cybran than Aeon.

ED1 is the absolute king. I wish it would cost less buildtime though.
