Also swarms paint a big X on you for infantry to kill you. I tried the swarms and found them very ineffective vs most tanks. Current meta for soloing a tank is massive damage as quickly as possible before they drive off.
My thoughts exactly, worded more efficiently What ever happened to forge guns, I hardly see them on the field. I used to love them but I'm not specced into them anymore. Is it worth it now? I have heard they are just fine, but you may want to ask the guys in Bastion. Might as well make use of them.

Sometimes, you don't have time to run away. Turn a corner cloak and hide. You'd be surprised how many people will walk by you, or just start looking for easier prey. I did this just yesterday. I had to turn a corner which lead to open terrain in Highlands (), and had no cover from the couple reds chasing me. I was also low on HP. I simply activated my cloak, crouched against the wall, and watched as they all passed by me. I then decloaked and sprayed down one of the Scouts before Trolololing it out of of there.
Bottom line: Cloaks are still extremely useful.

It probably saves me a few more times than it kills me, but I still occasionally find myself spotted in the open, engaging the enemy because I have nowhere to hide, and then flailing my empty hands because that stupid glitch wouldn't let me bring out my knives.
Its just so clumsy it is infuriating sometimes.

My squadmates run scanners for me. My job isn't intel gathering, its ewar denial and lots of flanking. People are so dependent on scans, a double damped cloaked scout can wreck some havoc if he wants to.
Ishukone Cloak lasts so long too. I've actually waded into hell and just sat there with a cloak until 6 people walked by me. Barked on comms how many and what direction, then waited for cloak to recharge.
Hit their flank the moment the other squad ran into them

Because I stand in only the most conspicuous places.
If you're looking for a cloaked scout, you can find him. But if I see you ACTIVELY trying to find me, I'll nope out the moment you turn your back the wrong way.
Most people just give a cursory glance around as they walk by. Thats when I wait and bide my time.
In short: Cloaks ARE useful, you just have to be aware of its strengths and limitations. Also helps if you are good at reading people.

Depends. If you have a combat rifle BPO, I would be MORE than willing to trade.
If not, I'll take practically any Min Officer gear. Not at a 1 to 1 ratio though.

Its not my job, but it happens from time to time.
Typically, they just end up scanning at me anyways. I feel like I'm contributing this way

If you used a a scanner the whole squad would know without you barking at them. It's more accurate too. Saves time too!
This is probably because I don't PC, but in pubs you can flank without cloaks. It's pretty easy with a scanner cause the scanners tell you where people are so you just go around them.
But you're the better player so your opinion is worth more.

Honestly, I still think its a matter of preference.
I dislike scanners for a few reasons. I am vulnerable while using them, they alert people around me that I'm scanning (Visual and Audio cues, along with the YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED), and they are purely preventative tools.
IF you do get spotted, a scanner does you no good anymore. It is used to PREVENT you from being spotted (the way you want to use it), but you still run the risk of a damped scout getting under it and lighting you up.
Cloak works on everyones eyes, damped or not. I've learned how to use general map awareness, alongside of friendly scans to be able to guess where heavy traffic is on the map. I then avoid those areas, use the cloak to get in behind them and kill them.
Other scouts? Just watch out for them and check your 6. They can't scan me (Double Damped), and if I do see them, I cloak and run. Min Scout is faster than most every other scout out there. Just get out of visual range, cloak and hide. Once the threat has passed, move on.
If scanners work for you, they work. I just don't like using them.

It's the win that makes it a stomp.
A good squad that still loses... isnt something that needs fixing.
I totally understand your point of , sir. I haz question, though ! view What if they won, but you daftly avoided them at every turn, constantly hacking and killing at other objectives, keeping them on their toes? Technically you'd have had a great match, with more excitement than frustration. Would that be a stomp for you, though?
Still a stomp.
in theory, a slightly less annoying one for me personally. But would presumably still be disgusting for every other person on my team.
Plus, I hate playing games where it isnt possible to win. Unless I was very hard up for money, I just bail on matches like that after 5 minutes. Not fun playing = not worth playing.
Especially since those matches usually get to redlining halfway through, so it isnt even possible to get to objectives wthout getting gunned down

Here's my personal opinion on cloaks.
Quote: Honestly, I still think its a matter of preference.
I dislike cloaks for a few reasons. I am vulnerable while using them, they alert people around me that I'm cloaked (Visual and Audio cues), and they are purely preventative tools.
IF you do get spotted, a cloak does you no good anymore. It is used to PREVENT you from being spotted (the way you want to use it), but you still run the risk of a Gal logi picking you up.
I don't like the delay between having the cloak selected and switching to another weapon or equipment, it just leaves you too vulnerable for too long. I don't like that you have to stand still for it too work. I like pushing buttons, and the matches have timers, I don't want to wait forever for a red dot to drop aggro. Gal logi's will scan me regardless and if you're scanned while cloaked the cloak is not just worthless it's a hindrance 'cause now you're also vulnerable.
Smart people will find you with the reticle trick. If they walk close enough by you, inner ring scan precision will probably get you. Cloaks provide no benefit to the the rest of the team, only you. And if you're solo, cloakblind will screw you over.
I agree that it's really just preference though.
