Airborne Effectiveness nerf was not healthy for pvp

The current PVP landscape is incredibly stale. Pulses dominate currently — not because they are overpowered, but because a variety of other options have been neutered, creating a lack of diversity I have not seen in a long time. Grounded playstyles that lane from long ranges are encouraged, while archetypes and weapons that quite frankly need the extra edge in the air, are now suffering. A lot of archetypes that were already bad are now made worse. Lightweight bows, 180 handcannons, autos, and even some smg's and sidearms - anything currently that doesn't sport over a 40 in the airborne effectiveness stat feels like it shoots blanks. I understand it was necessary to alleviate icarus being the only worthwhile mod to equip, but it had some serious ramifications. Can we have some archetypes with a significant natural bump to AE so that we can safely traverse and use the vertical spaces prevalent in your maps?
