as we all know the EMP strike really isnt worth the ammo to use it so i come up with a list of things to make it more userable in battles

1. takes down all shields on enemy players and vechiles and stops the shields from recharging for 10 seconds
2. destroys all enemy equipment such as nanohives drops uplinks explosives ect
3. messes the enemy radar up for 10 seconds this this also works against scanners
4. vechiles cant move for 10 seconds but can still defend themselves this also means drop ships will fall from the sky

the blast radius is 30m it only last 10 seconds for point factor stays the same but if someone in your team kills an enemy in that blast redius u gain 25 points 50 points for vechile destroy assist

make the strike worth using instead of having the same orbital strike all the time

You know nothing of the EMP strike..

Currently it has about a 110 meter radius in which it will completely remove all equipment within that range, even if it's under objects. Your problem is you likely used only one gun to fire the EMP.

EMP = Kill equipment
Hybrid = Kill infantry

As nice of an idea as it sounds without a AV nerf this would be terrible for any vehicle type. Im a full time scout btw and I cant believe im helping tanks on this one. Not to mention lav's would be completely screwed. Lock a vehicle down and kill the pilot. Their turrets are kinda useless so it wouldnt be hard at all.

It is also exceptionally useful for effectively killing enemy shield tanks with minimal risk to friendlies in the area. ADS Reports - Defining Racial Themes

I don't like the idea of a weapon that only does damage to shields. Never have, never will. Humanity is the personification of change.

Except for the orbital bombardment variety. I don't like the idea of a weapon that only does damage to shields. Never have, never will. To be fair, that's projectile ammo, so it will have minimal kinetic damage on impact and small explosive damage upon detonation of the EMP (not sure if that's how you'd make a real EMP round, I think there'd be no explosive force; just kinetic and mostly EMP). What you're really trying to get at is that armor has natural resistance against EM damage, but can still get damaged. "By His light, and His will" - The Scriptures, Gheinok the First, 12:32
