Think of it as Aura Barrier in 4SRW - it make the Aura Battler too
powerful, since most enemy's beam weapon cannot do more than 3000 damage
most of the time...

Quebeley's funnel don't work on Earth.

Nope - usually rely on my "personal" experience - meaning I cheat like
hell...

Personally, as I have said before, I believe it's mostly side effect, so
I never put much thought on it. Besides, I have always believe that the
piloting skill is part of that person's skill, not just because he is a
newtype. Combat tactics and stuff comes naturally to some people, and I
believe these stuff just come to Amuro and Camille naturally.

I thought I remember him saying that he's not powerful enough to
"defeat" Amuro, hence needing Lalah's help. As for him using funnel, read
the other post about psychoframe.

She spend almost every moment with Camille, so sooner or later, she
should become a NT...

I think you read into their relationship too much. As seen in the next
episode, Camille cannot sense Four (she surprise him when she felt him) all
the time. And in the episode that I am talking about, he didn't really know
Four is in there - he just feel a strong headache coming via NT. You can
try, but you rarely find any evidence of Char's "strong" NT powers...
