1: Let me make this perfectly clear right now. ALL huntsmen and huntresses of Beacon level can defelct objects moving 3000 feet persecond (1000 m/s) as seen in the Pyrrha VS CRDL fight where both Pyrrha and Cardin defelcted bullets (Pyrrha deflecting pistol rounds presumably at 1500 FPS and Cardin deflecting rifle rounds around 3000 fps).

2: The reason why you wouldn't Sanic everywhere is because it does drain arua, just not in significant amounts. But over time you do drain yourself. So if you have to travel miles you'd be exhausted and prone to Grimm attack.

3: Darian's Semblance doesn't beat Ruby's. It's Potentially faster than her in the short range but he can only cover 50 meters at a time (having to stop every 10 meters to replant his feet for a half a second or so) where as Ruby can just sprint like crazy until she cant sprint any more. Meaning she can cover way more distance in a shorter amount of time. Also Dar's semblance does have a 5 second cool down, and thus far we havent seen anyone exhaust themselves from semblance alone. They generally need to have their aura beat out of them for their semblance to start effecting their aura.

4: Aura protects the entire body, not just the skin. If it didnt ruby would fall over instantaneously from moving just once, just about every huntsmen would be knocked out from blunt force trama alone, and bones would shatter. Aura protects the user from more or less all harm until it's broken.

5: Also we've seen 2 characters use rapid dashes in canon. Ruby...just about every time she fights (especially in the Red trailer) and Weiss when she summons a bunch of glyphs around someone and bounces between them rapidly to hit them. My guy using 5 to slash and run is no different from at least two characters in canon doing the same bloody thing.

6: Where as the tommy gun has a lot of volume of fire, penelope can simply form her cards into a shield, hide behind it and move out of the way, or just smack some of the bullets out of the air, considering the tommy gun fires a .45 acp round that moves at 800 fps, which is super easy for huntsmen and huntresses to knock away. And ONCE AGAIN who the hell says Dar will focus on Leo? Darian know's he'll need Penelope's help to take out the massive tank guy so he'll focus on taking out the scawny guy and have Penelope play bait for a while to distract and whittle down the tank. This is basic combat strategy. If you're too evenly matched but your partner excells in the opponents weakness, you swap out. Penelope is plenty agile and has plenty of range so she'd be better at fighting Leo. Darian can take more of a beating and dish a massive load of hurt out, so he'd be better suited to rapidly take down Azulius. They know that and would work to seperate the two, swap if necessary, and take Azulius down before they could team up on Leo.
