    I recently designed a ship (if you can call it that) that can cloak and jam radar constantly. I can't seem to think of a viable strategy to take down one of these ships. Are they just op, or am I not thinking outside the box enough?

    They are only scouts. Neither do they have fire power to do damage to any \"serious\" ship nor do they have shields and hull enough to resist any attacks.

    Mine has shields and a bit of firepower. 8000 shields (more can be added) And 4 23 block bb missile launchers (more can be added)

    I haven\'t gotten around to attempting to design a ship that has armaments and shields but still enough power to keep up cloak and radar jammer constantly.



    They are pretty much just OP... but imbalances are to be expected in an early alpha.

    But doesnt the cloak come undone once you fire upon a vessel? It was in the update post when they added the cloaker and jammer. At least thats what the post says. Havent actually tried it out yet.

    They do.



    But it isn\'t hard at all to re-engage them and in this case there\'s definitely enough shield to withstand some (if any) fire after the enemy stumbles around to locate you before you go back into cloak.

    KB missiles, if I remember correctly, still track radar jammed and cloaked ships.

    Anyone able to test this for me? :P
