A hard counter to the cloak module is all that's needed. Simply make a flux grenade deplete the timer on cloaks and we're good. Tacnet-Invisible scouts have been around for a long time but haven't been an issue because your eyes are a hard counter. A stationary cloaked shotty scout in a cqc area however is only counter-able by other scouts or someone with a proto scanner on a fully specced Gallogi, and after the next round of fixes I don't know if that will be enough to get EVERY scout.
Don't remove the cloak, it's a fine addition, it just needs something that can cancel it out. Fix the flux for this purpose.

Just to reiterate, making flux grenades deplete the timer on the cloak makes the cloak balanced. A flux can be equipped by anyone, whereas other counters require you to either skill a certain class of suit OR skill a certain class of suit AND an equipment. A flux is a STD grenade anyone can use.
Fully depleting a cloak with a flux not only renders a scout visible, but also makes the scout have to wait until it's cloak recharges to use it again.

Having a grenade ANYONE can equip with only Level 1 in Grenadier, Disrupt my prototype cloak on my 190k Scout suit doesnt seem at ALL fair to me.
Not to sound snarky but..... you could... avoid the grenade? A basic Locus grenade can kill many scouts. Losing your cloak at least leaves you the opportunity to defend yourself or run.
