Fight fire with fire. The hellcat is still pretty good even after the nerf.
Seeing as it's now back for use in Ranked matches, I picked up the Hellcat for 1190AC. About 1/3rd of its peak price from last month. The rebalance has been done well to make sure you now have SOME chance of knocking out an attacking squadron. However, if you are the poor soul who's used your flares and AA defending against someone else, it will still inflict 200k+ damage without spending too much time flying towards you. The fact that it comes from only 3 weapons makes it all the more efficient. Need to time the HG-19 nuke use so that they arrive along with the anti flare Spear-EWF burst for the best chance of delivering that same scary beatdown from last month. That tactic takes actual skill to properly use now so after suffering last month, i think I'm going to have a good ranked season. 😈
