Shorten EM scattering field duration and recharge

The title really says it all. I just think it would be better for LRF’s if they could be able to move between cloaks instead of being stuck in place while waiting for the cloak to cool down.

That’s the risk of being invisible, either position yourself in right place or be forced to move. You reveal yourself anyway when you start firing.

I’ve found that to be all but true, actually. Most players just don’t even recognise that they are bent hit until it’s too late too. The greater majority of players don’t know to rely on their eyes and not their HUD. Xp

Also, there’s a little “tip” thing on loading screens that says “Remember the sniper training! Always change positions!”(What sniper training?) So how are you supposed to change pos constantly when the Reverse Thruster takes an immense amount of time to recharge, and if you move you break cloak. There’s lots of this that I don’t understand. It also says that the EM cloak “prevents negative effects” which it doesn’t.

It prevents negative effects that arise with lockon. Any ship gets negative effects from being hit directly or in an aura.

Thought as much.

You can move while using this, just don’t thrust, you’re still allowed to slide while having this on.

That’s coasting. And due to the physics of the game you can’t keep coasting, therefore you cannot move for more than a small distance.

It’s enough to do it for 20 seconds, being able to move, to shoot and to use modules would be kinda overpowered. And about the Reverse Thruster, for any good Long Range Pilot it’s already must have anyways. So you have this.

Um. I don’t think that we’re talking about the same module. The EM Scattering Field is like a longer, inverted Adaptive Camo. You can move in adaptive, but not in EM. You can shoot in EM, but not in adaptive.

We are talking about the same module.

But what you suggest would make the module overpowered, cloak, hover around, kill everything. Then being few seconds out of cloak, accelerate, cloak, hover around, kill everything… And that would keep going. And i play LOT OF Long Range Frigate, more than you can imagine and even I say that this would be broken.

Nahhhhhh. That’s what LRFs are supposed to do.

Nahhhhhh. That’s what LRFs are supposed to do.

Not unless they unnerf the snipe modules. For now its better for LRF to unleash rain of bullets cloaked than use dissy or torpedo.

Nahhhhhh. That’s what LRFs are supposed to do.

Actually No, that’s not it’s purpose.

I’ve just been whittling down shield and hull with mains then chasing down fleeing foes with my tachyon torp. That not what yer supposed to do?

Of course, but did you even read and compare this sentence to your OP? When do you need to move while steering a guided torp?

And… Still saying that your suggestion would break LRFs and it’s not really good. And that’s not just my opinion, it’s a fact.

This

That basically happens anyway in T5 since you can recharge your em scatter with the rank 13 implant (soon to be nerfed apparently)
