Equipment.
Insane CPU and maybe PG cost.
CPU cost (and PG if relevant) massively reduced on Scout suits.
If your suit comes with an equipment slot, you CAN put a Cloak on it, but unless you're a Scout, that's probably ALL you can have. |

Honestly I have mixed feelings where the Cloak should go. I think logically it should be a low slot to make it harder for you to be both invisible AND stay off scanners

Made my own thread about this but i'll say it again
Create active mod slots
Give logi's zero
give assaults 1 at proto
give heavies 1 at ADV, 2 at proto
give scouts 1 at std, 2 at adv, 3 at proto
active mods can have cloaking, speed boosts, jump boosts, armour/shield hardners, teleport (jump drives) ect in them.
Create 3rd fitting requirement - apart from CPU/PG, Active mods are run off of this.

Just like the active scanner except you have to hold the trigger the entire time and when the trigger is released the timer starts.
3 second recalibrating time before weapons can be used and a 10 second cool down time. Skills change speed while deployed and cool down.
Scouts have a small bonus and special ops having better bonuses that change the recalibration time and cool down time.
No running while cloaked to keep it from being op except for maybe a covert class of suits thats role was a fast traveling cloak.
No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Or make the cloak so useless that it is only used to hide and move slowly. Only special op suits should have weapons close to decloak. What would be the point of a cloak on a heavy if he couldn't use his weapon for 3-5 seconds?

What would be the point of a cloak on a heavy if he couldn't use his weapon for 3-5 seconds? They've confirmed there will be a "shimmer" effect which gets more pronounced when you move, and that there will be a Scout-exclusive buff reducing this effect. Slow movement unless you're running the Scout or a black ops Light Frame suit.
Also, if it's equipment, you can't be holding a gun AND your cloak at the same time, it's one or the other, so you can't shoot while cloaked, there's a delay between disengaging the cloak and starting to fire. |

They have already said that first off it will have a high pg/cpu cost. They also said that scouts would be getting a bonus specifically to this. Another thing they had mentioned would be that it will not only be a visual cloak but it will work as a profile dampener as well.
I imagine what will happen is that it will be an equipment or low powered slot. Because it will act as a profile dampener scouts will no longer have to sacrifice as many slots on an almost worthless module.
I highly disagree with any suggestion that would have any class lose a light weapon. That is so unbalanced the idea is just stupid. For scouts specifically they already have very little health. If you only allow them to have a pistol or SMG you will lose an already quickly fading player base.
As an equipment piece I assume it would work kind of like a scanner where you activate it and it stays engaged for a set amount of time. Not allowing people to use a weapon while cloaked is also a very bad idea. It would make the cloak pointless as you would not be able to stealthily assassinate any targets.

I just made this thread to get the two guys on the Scouts Killboard over here. They keep going back and forth, and we want them to take it elsewhere.
Working as intended. They are nowhere to be found......
But yeah, the light weapon idea is stupid.

If your suit comes with an equipment slot, you CAN put a Cloak on it, but unless you're a Scout, that's probably ALL you can have.
Well insane CPU is a bit tricky as the scout has the lowest CPU rating of all suits(apart from the commando). So a medium frame will still be able to fit that equipment without beeing hindered so much as mediums have at 50 CPU more than scouts.
If you look at the current skill bonusses the highest is 10% per level (and I highly doubt scouts will get 10% bonus to CPU and PG for cloaking devices 5% is more realistic). So even if the cloaking device will need 100CPU a medium can fit this thing rather comfortabel and will still be able to run in a valid fit.
PG on the other hand would work better as scouts PG values are much closer to the assault PG rating. So a module with moderate CPU and higher PG could work better when scouts get a huge CPU/PG bonus... |

You can literally fit it on a Scout normally or fit ONLY the cloak on another suit.
They've been talking about having a massive difference in fitting of cloaks on Scout suits compared with other suit types. |

I like it in the grenade slot.
I dislike it in the equipment slot because the wheel is cumbersome. Also logis get a bonus to equipment and should not have an easier time putting on a cloak.
The grenade slot makes for easy activation with L2 and still allows access to weapons/equipment (not necessarily meaning you can use them while cloaked but have access to them). Also not having grenades makes for a nice negative to cloaks.
Also think the nade slot makes a nice active mod slot because of the quick activation and it's limitation of 1. |

I like the idea, but I'd like it better if assaults got 1 across all tiers, heavy got 1 at basic and adv, 2 at proto. scout I think I'm fine with as most people try to go straight to adv with it just to get decent pg/cpu out of them. |

If it was a module slot, you'd have to program new mechanics in to prevent shooting/aiming/arming/using equipment whilst cloaked.
No one in their right mind would use a cloak instead of a weapon - that's about as stupid as making logis have rep tools as their weapon!
Equipment is the most logical choice but will require scouts to be given an extra equipment slot to be able to actually use it and do scoutly things, otherwise it will be next to useless.

Yes I know I am just a little afraid that their intention of a massive reduction would come down to something like 5 to 10% per level and even with this bonus Assaults would cry OP ^^

Why not? I've often wanted a rep tool instead of a weapon for my logis. If it is made a light weapon, scouts will still have Scrambler Pistols, SMGs and Nova Knives to kill with, and if it was a sidearm then they could fit whatever they pleased.

Django Quik wrote:I can't believe we're still discussing what slot cloaks will be in!
CCP constantly refers to them as equipment. IWS dropped in here recently to allude to some very special equipment that will greatly improve the life of scouts.
Weapons go in weapon slots - nothing that is not a weapon should ever go there. Likewise grenades go in grenade slots. Modules would need total recoding for active modules to be added to dropsuits. (descriptions have never ever been updated, so are zero evidence of future or even current intentions)
CCP have never ever said anything against the idea of giving scouts an extra equipment slot, so that is not necessarily off the cards, like someone said earlier.
CCP has said that the CPU usage will be MASSIVE with scouts getting an equally huge reduction - if a cloak takes 400CPU and and we get a 95% reduction, we will pretty much be the only viable cloaking suits.
Pretty sure CCP said you won't be able to shoot cloaked in one of the dev blogs describing it.
Tell me people - IFF we get an extra equipment slot, what would be the drawbacks to having cloaks as equipment?

Always thought this. Scouts built in would be better than the module for others and would improve each level so Lv1 > Basic cloak, Lv3 > Enhanced cloak, Lv5 > Complex cloak.
On the op:
Cloak as equipment - Use it for set period of time - Short cooldown Only breaks when switched off or time runs out. Obviously you have to switch off to shoot Cant be broken by scanners visually but can reveal location on tacnet (no chevron on hud) Higher cloaks increase duration or reduce cooldown
Cloak as module - Can stay activated indefinitely - Long cooldown Breaks when you sprint, shoot, hack, use installations. You can jump or drop off ledges and remained cloaked. Higher scanners break cloak Higher cloaks obviously beat lower scanners and decrease cooldown |

^ This.
Though I say we should let the active mods cost CPU/PG. Also, logis should get one as well. In addition, each class should receive an additional bonus towards fitting active mods that mesh with their intended role.

Thoughts on the possibilities for cloak location.
First off... it seems impossible they're going to make it an "always on", passive type module. That rules out both the "built into suits" option, and also the high/low slot option.
grenade slot interesting. but seems a bit unlikely. Also, leaves the door open for new wave of "cloaked assault logi". As if the existing brick-tank-assault logi werent bad enough
equipment slot This would **** off soo many scouts, since we couldnt use cloak and use uplinks. Also, has logi problem.
EQ, with scouts get special extra eq slot Would make scouts relatively happy. At the same time, seems really, really unlikely. CCP hates scouts too much to make that happen, methinks Also, has logi problem.
light weapon slot Would make non-scouts not complain so much about cloaks. Would also stop logis using it, and thus eliminate the "cloaked assault logi" threat. Would also leave most scouts quite happy, since using sidearms as primary weapon is quite common for scouts.

I have 2.6 Mil SP now and have nothing in light suits or shotguns. I run with a militia suit and shotgun costing me 4,074 ISK. I got bored of trying for a medium or logi and have created this fit to see what the light class can do; very nearly ALL of my points are in the core skills and will continue before I go to any other tree.
Stating all of this, between running, hacking, drop uplinks intelligently placed, and the now and then kill, I have placed in the top 4 for WP in almost all the games I have played. My KDR waxes and wanes depending on how good of a team I am up against (this has everything to do with comms, I run around a tank or sleath kill someone and others start looking for me).
I know I don't have the SP invested that some of you do and I get "You have been scanned" A LOT. But I have some thoughts on a cloak. Don't do it. It would be easy mode for the people who cannot learn to never run AT an enemy in a light suit. For all the bitching of others, I still consistently get unaware kills and I run NO profile dampeners (but having 2 in the skill).
What I would like to see balanced is the scanners. I believe right off the bat a normal shouldn't be able to pick up a normal light suit, an advanced shouldn't pick up an advanced suit and a proto should NOT be able to pick up a proto light suit. And dampeners should be able to step up in between. They are going off every 12 secs.
ALSO, I SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO NOT SEE A TANK from ANYWHERE on the map. Its freaking huge, it should show up on my TACNET, on the MCC scanners, everywhere, I should be able to pull out a AV from the closest spawn point that I see cause I know where it IS. Fine, make it so only one person can drive AND shoot it, make it invincible, but make it clearly seen everywhere.
Lastly, if you do add a cloak, make it expensive as hell to fit, give a bonus to light suits to bring down the cpu/pg requirements so we are the only ones that can really use it, make it use your only equipment slot and make it so you have to activate it. And it only lasts 6 secs with a recharge of like 30 secs.
But most of all, I would like to see my light suit's passive scanner as good as a active scanner. We should see everything but another light suit out to 50 m. Maybe I just haven't gotten there yet and if I spec into Gallente scout suits, the bonus gives me just that, but holy balls man, how long do I have to play this game crippled, I haven't even got halfway through 1 tree and the tree is only halfway full, THE CHEAP HALF. Everything costs 410K now. I could be max level at almost any other MMO by now. It's too damn extreme of a climb.

Equipment slot.
Effectiveness of the cloak is determined by its quality, and by the scan profile of the user. This would make scouts inherently far superior as cloak users.

Create 3rd fitting requirement - apart from CPU/PG, Active mods are run off of this.
Remove Equipment slots off Assault Suits and Scout suits in that case then |

It's EVE Online. And you know what EVE has? CLOAKING DEVICES. Kind of like the ones that have ALREADY BEEN CONFIRMED FOR THE FUTURE OF DUST.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Harry Potter isn't the only made-up universe where invisibility is an option. |

With their track history of "balance" when it comes to new stuff I think a cloaking device is a TERRIBLE idea. |

3 second recalibrating time before weapons can be used and a 10 second cool down time. Skills change speed while deployed and cool down.
Scouts have a small bonus and special ops having better bonuses that change the recalibration time and cool down time.
No running while cloaked to keep it from being op except for maybe a covert class of suits thats role was a fast traveling cloak. I like this idea but rather than equipment I'd like to see it use a weapon slot so scouts could still carry drop uplinks, remotes, etc. I see losing a weapon to gain a clock would be an excellent balance. This is from a heavy not a scout user, but I've talked to enough scouts where losing a equipment slot to have a clock doesn't appeal to them, and I agree. |
