I know it was the right idea to make the Wraith seem more threatening in this episode, but if all it takes is a single ZPM for an ordinary Hive to become virtually impervious to uber Asgard beams and powerful enough to destroy uber Asgard shields with a single salvo, shouldn't the Wraith already be more technologically advanced than the Alterans?
Asgard weapons can destroy Ori Motherships with little trouble, if they inflict only minimal damage to a SuperHiveship hull, then that makes it by far the most powerful vessel in the franchise so far right?
I realize it feels like a nitpick but it just seems like a bit of weird thing to do and it kinda tugs a little at my suspension of disbelief. Wraith never were supposed to be technologically gifted in their strengths.
And on another level I kinda have to feel a little disappointed that the PTB keep seeming to have jumps in technological abilities be huge each time. Can't we finally have enemies that are on roughly equal bearing in a fight?
I was actually really pleased personally when the Asgard introduced their particle beams in Unending, I thought it was the perfect way to even the odds with the Ori ships. but since the Ori arc was over almost immediately after it left Earth ships with a weapons nearly too powerful to be threatened. And so when the Wraith upgrade their ships they are so powerful that they make the Earth ships look ineffectual. I'd love to see more space battles with the excitement of feeling they could go either way.
