I see your point, it makes sense. Although I can hardly say that T2 UEF air is capable of "sniping" rather than "steady tickling to death".
For me it always was an intentional difference between races:
- UEF has only damage over time
- Aeon has only alpha damage
- Cybran and Seraph are in the middle
(talking aboun air to ground damage here but Aeon is about alpha damage in many different places)
Now Aeon air seems to be very strange:
Mercy is a one-use Janus and Specters cost more than Stingers, have twice less dps but in alpha-damage form (aka extremely bad).
I don't say I know what to do with Mercy so they become useful but balanced, but seems like this direction just makes them obsolete.
