So with few, large ships, Focus Fire is tastier and more effective. At some point focus fire becomes worthless because of turning-times / retargeting. Imagine the opposite case: Hundreds of tiny-DPS units. Fewer ships per DPS means Focus Fire works better against Vasari, not worse. But in terms of raw toughness, firepower, and mobility nothing beats Vasari fleets. TEC outperforms them economically and Advent have better culture and more powerful ship special abilities. Its a very big military advantage, and generally speaking the main advantages the Vasari enjoy are military in nature.

Third, because there are about 33% fewer ships in the typical vasari fleet, they tend to be considerably less impacted by AoE attacks such as the missile upgrade that TEC Javelis LRMs and Vasari Assailant LRMs have access to.

During focus fire only one ship is being damage at a time so a tougher ship will last longer, particularly it will have more shield+hull remaining once it has reached the 60% mitigation cap which gives the already durable vasari ships that much more effective durability. Second, it significantly reduces vulnerability to focus firing. First of all it makes it possible for the Vasari to muster a powerful fleet faster with the same number of shipyards, because you're building fewer ships to achieve the same results. Vasari ships are individually much tougher and deal more damage than other factions' ships though they cost more resources and fleet logistics to compensate. They can even see all phase jumps at level 8 and can get RA. This is good, as they are also master of the cat and mouse game. Most of there upgrades are tied to there fleet and most ships have two special abilities, while the other factions have only one. This is alls with the best antimatter system(culture increase antimatter regeneration rate, as well as having the able to steal antimatter thougth the disciple) The Vasari are best when using there fleets. On top of that they the strongest culture powers of any of the three factions(which include there super weapon). On top of that, they also have a tech called Raised Shield Harmonics, that increases the maximum pssoble damag mitigation provided by shields.

The Advent has the most shields points of any of the faction. More then any other faction, the capital ships of the TEC seem to me, more able to support each other. The Strongest economy of any other faction, make it easy for the TEC to win thougth the use of pirates. The TEC has the most hitpoints and armor of any of the two factions.
