@comradestryker said in The Problems With The UEF - Part 4 (Ambassador & Blackbird):
If Stealth isn't that big of a deal, why must every other faction need to mix in spy planes into their ASF mix to try and counter it? That ability alone is costing you ASF and mass.
Granted, every air player should be doing this by default, but the fact that it needs to be done, or a dedicated front-line omni needs to be built - just shows you how strong that ability is.
It's not that strong though because it's not free and increases in cost with the number of ASF.
The one spyplane you need to have is quite cheap and you don't really need more.
So you're better off turning stealth off if you have like 10 ASF and the opponent has a spyplane
And once you get to higher numbers, 80 ASF need the same e as an uncapped omni so running stealth very quickly costs you more than the omni costs to counter it.
