I think it depends on the mission. Obviously if there is boss, Acrotecher is going to be better. But I can think of missions Fortetecher can run faster than Acrotecher due to lvl 41 (through GAS) techs, such as Groves of Fanatics (including boss), Black Nest, Sleeping Warriors, etc. Basically any mission where pre-GAS/C Masterforce was better than Acrotecher, applies to Fortetecher.

This is because a GAS Fortetecher is > pre-GAS Masterforce.

Of course.... at that point you'd be better off as a Masterforce anyway.

But any type closer to a specialized form of damage is generally stronger than a hybrid, which Acrotecher IS a hybrid.

Why do you think all the techer elitists played Fortetecher exclusively before Masterforce came along? Because it did more damage.

Only reason why Fortetecher is garbage now is because it has no place in parties (Acrotecher and Masterforce get the job done) AND its not a general soloing type. So its just there to be pretty basically.
