Possible way out of the V.Q. Problem

As has been mentioned in other threads, either the VQ needs a slight power-down (loss of flight or ethereal might be enough) or a good number of other pretenders need a slight power-up.

Loss of ethereal would be a pretty big nerf... though I'm not saying I'm opposed to it...

It would make her near useless in the early game (unless she takes Astral)... but probably no less powerful in the mid-to-late game. The reasoning behind that statement being: ethereal+luck+armor (and Enc 0) is basically unstopable against indie troops... but ethereal is meaningless when facing other player's SC's who presumably will be equiped with magic weapons.

While that does address my major issue with her... ie that she is "uber" throughout the game, while most SC Pretenders have to "retire" to the library at some point... I'm not sure about it.

If you did that, then all the VQ lovers would just switch to GK's and then we'd encounter an uprising to nerf them.
