What the Delta fight showed: Capital & Group Fights being ruined by...

[Sombs]

That doesn't remove the fact that the JDs are intended to work offensively. How about you offer something constructive instead of screaming 'remove'? How would you make them work, Jack if you don't believe they are fine currently.

A good start would be to remove the capability to use JD and cloak at the same time.
When you see a ship approaching, you can at least act somehow.
Right now, if you do it correctly, it looks like:

> Invis ship uses the chaos to fly in
> jump 2-5 ships out to a max painful position (chosen purely by gameplay mechanisms)
> jumper stays cloaked (never any chance to actually do anything)
> jumper keeps watching the jumped out players while cloaked so that they cannot suicide or selfkill (screening for blue message + pvp death against group)
> jumper then suicides himself
> respawns and does it all again.

If cloaks did not work with JD, the jumpship would find itself in a fight to the death in a place it jumped the people to, or would at least have to cruise away - killing off the cancerous "guarding for blue message" part that aims almost directly at sanctionlancing. It would also reduce the troll-aspect because the jumper would actually be in danger and there would actually be a chance to die in it.

You had 500 Cloak Disruptors spammed during the entire fight and complain that one didn't get hit by it. Implo had luck, nothing more. Stop acting as if they were totally broken, even Order made use of the new tactics.
