Flux is not specifically an EMP, they are nanites that destroy LOW LEVEL electronics and interfere with shield by overriding it with contact points and shorting it out.
they also destroy equipment through walls. Plus higher level tech is easily hardened against nanites versus disposable battlefield equipment like nanohives and uplinks Etc.
They are a tactical weapon, you use them against heavy shield tanked suits (few and far between) but I use them on almost all my suits.

They are a tactical weapon, you use them against heavy shield tanked suits (few and far between) but I use them on almost all my suits. they are still tactical with the change much more of a needed utility imo. and the heavly shielded dont need any more counters. they are already without logistical support where armor does have that advantage. and if you want to take out shields a locus does that job just fine. both shields and armor.
Not for heavier shields, works well with minmatar tech, like a mass driver, trust me they are very strictly tactical, you can kill armor tanks if done right with remotes. I understand a standard locus kills militia frames, but I am talking advanced and Proto, nothing makes a true caldari run like getting hit with a flux.

I believe in flux decloaking scouts... Not keeping them off for 30 seconds or disabling equipment on you, flux work fine as is, and AV grenades are not meant for shields... Do your research... They do -20 to shield +20 armor...
they flux cal tank quite well... 2 flux will drop about anything on a cal tank and it scares them, trust me I have Assisted in the killing of shield tanks many times, plus they do remove equipment spam... It's there main job.
