i do agree on this! for example the only defence that my ZBT, that rarely use to be honest, is the cloak, and now a rat or something like that, simply can be camping on a jumphole/gate and ... i mean .. why? there are already the cloack disrupters ... i mean ... why? and look at that range ... honestly ... why messing with something that was ok, that that was even one counter to it, and now ... to be honest never saw someone complain about it .. except for buttcloaking! i don't use cloaks on my main trader because of the cargo size is small, and many times is flying on house space, and cops and anvy don't like to see that equip ... fair enough ... but for some big transports, that go around hostile space, for example, no chance for survival on a hostile encounter, the only way to have some safety is the cloak and now you are ruin it. i'm already imagining the pob owners that produce this time equip ... yep .. sales are going down!
