This list has no method of dealing with armor over 12 other than your Farseer. It would be better to take a lance walker.
If you want to stick to the overall theme of your list, you could swap the warwalkers for vyper jetbikes.

Jetbikes are best taken in multiples of 3 for the cannons.

If you want to keep the warwalkers, keep them in one squad. This will allow the farseer to buff them both with prescience or guide. It will also make them less likely to give out first blood.

'Bike' Themed List with Vypers
Spoiler:
Farseer - Jetbike

6 Jetbikes - 2 cannons
6 Jetbikes - 2 cannons

2 Vypers - Cannon and Brightlance each.
499pts


WarWalker list
Spoiler:
Farseer - Jetbike

6 Jetbikes - 2 cannons
6 Jetbikes - 2 cannons

2 Warwalkers - Scatter Laser and Bright Lance each
499 pts.
Having dual role war walkers is generally a no-no, but IMO this is better than having two units of single models, to avoid first blood. The scatter lasers will grant your bright lances re-rolls to hit so your Farseer can guide/prescience both units of jetbikes. Statistically 2 brightlances on a war walker is better than 1 twin-linked brightlance, but in a 500 point game this SHOULD be enough to deal with whatever armour you encounter, and then the Walkers have scatter lasers to still be effective vs infantry.

Agrred with this 100% ^^.

Good luck and remember, in 7th ed DE and eldar are battle bros, this means they can ride in each others transports, makes assaulty units better.
