Why the hell...
So your solution is to completely break the cloak and make it useless. The only possible use it will have is hiding while traversing large open terrain with absolutely no one present, which is barely effective as it is now with the blue shimmer and everyone and their mother noticing you if they even flash their reticule over you.
CLOAK DOES NOT NEED A NERF
Just make it a main weapon slot item that forces scouts to only use a sidearm if they use cloak. Along with this, if the brick tanks really peeve people (I've hardly even noticed it), then put a bigger movement speed decrease on them so that only point defense units (such as heavies or people who want to fit their assaults that way) can use them properly, and scouts will just be so hampered by it that it's not worth it. The point of the scout isn't to take damage over time anyway.
But for the love of god, just because you're blind, the cloak itself does not need a nerf this idiotically massive. |

long before 1.8 GOOD scouts were already doing what the rest of you are now using the cloak as a crutch for, and like I said this is NOT A NERF, I actually think you should be COMPLETELY invis, no blue shimmer...
what I'm asking for are counters... i.e. getting to close to hostiles, getting shot, a flux, or a piece of EWAR equipment that turns your cloak off....
so calm down.
also except that it will be changed eventually, theres enough outcry for it so learn to play with skill instead of a kdr padding crutch...
You think that having a way for someone else to forcibly uncloak someone is not a nerf? Are you seriously that mental? You're decreasing the viability of something in the game, i.e. nerfing it. It's not rocket science, and don't try to spin it.
And you already have a counter. You can actually see people when they move! Outrageous, right? I run both assaults and scouts, and people who are cloaked are ridiculously easy to see and shoot. Even when they're still, the distortions are noticeable, especially the second after you put your reticule over them and notice it randomly turning red. Quit making excuses, your idea is terrible.
Again, just because you're blind doesn't mean that the cloak needs a nerf. |
