The introduction of the Flux OB provides an exciting new direction in tactical gameplay. This is especially the case for uplink strategy (one of my fave parts of this game)- those who adapt will have a significant advantage over scrub uplink droppers.
What do we know about the flux OB and its ability to go through structures?
The flux grenade can take out equipment on the other side of a wall so it would be reasonable to assume that the OB will likely do something similar. But to what extent? Does it go through just one level? Or does the beam take out all equipment vertically below it through all solid objects?

Judging by EMP strikes, all the things ever.
The Federation is not a defined region of space, of planets, of mountains, rivers, or woods. It is a vision.

My hopes, it's a beam through the entire map. Winning a game shouldn't rely so heavily on spamming one piece of equipment. Thank God they are doing this and giving suits bandwidth <3

There'd definitely be an advantage vs shield-tanked players if they go through the ground. Or maybe it only destroys equipment and doesn't affect suits/vehicles? There'd have to be a compromise there.

300 is too low. I get that almost every minute of game time. They thought lag was bad before with equipment spamming, imagine orbital spam, it's going to look/be stupid. Badass idea, but being able to spam it a horrible idea.
2,500 flux orbital
5,000 everthing killer orbital (or two flux, up to you)

As a Caldari across the board, I agree 100% with you.

Depends on how wide the AoE is. They did say it was going to be a small AoE right? For targeting specific equipment or entrenched groups of enemies for weakening before an attack.
I for one welcome the Warbarges to become a more active part of the battles. It will definitely go a long way to shake up the meta.
2500 is too high. They still can't kill, and they should really be achievable by a single solo player without too much trouble.
Please, make my Opus pretty...
