Admin Test: Nomad Jump Drives (Test Concluded)

[Antonio]

Good concept, horrible implementation. Instant flashbacks to jump drive battleships in older versions where you couldn't do anything before they jumped out, restocked and came back. It's no different with an insta cloak, a cloak disruptor can disrupt you once but what stops you from insta cloaking again when there's no cooldown? Nobody will want to engage in a PvP against an insta cloaker when they know the other guy has a guaranteed get out of jail free card.

With some balance changes it can become a good system, but balancing an insta cloak will be tricky. I'd suggest either adding a cloak cooldown or making it last -very- short, barely enough to escape enemy CD or scan range. That being said, it's nice to see the admins addressing Nomad issues.
