I think the OP has got confused. I don't see how a cloaked ship affects anything in the game at all. As for 'no defence' against it, I find 'ignoring them' to be pretty effective.
If there is a single cloaked ship that you are afraid may uncloak and attack you, all you need is to put some defensive ships near his prospective targets. p.s. My Harbinger will lock a Nemesis in under 2 seconds and one-shot kill it from 28 Km.
Out of interest, how does the effect of an AFK cloaker differ from the effect on your game of an non-aligned, AFK Inty pilot travelling at 4 km/s or faster? I think your issue may actually be that you want a visible AFK flag (or do you just like trolling?).
So what is the actual issue please?
Ignoring them, good tip. When he decloaks next to you and warp scramles you, you can not ignore it and warp away^^. Or when he opens a cyno someday and a nice fleet hotdrops you.
Oh i love those people that alsways say get some protection, i think those people just love to stand next to a carebear and sitting there doing nothing while the "hostile" is safe and afk. Sounds fun, right?
The issue is that you can't kill a cloaked ship at a safespot, if i'm wrong please tell me how. And cause of the fact that they can sit there 23/7 afk and only get decloaked when they want, gives you no chance to kill them during that time. So the old meme of "if you undock you risk your ship" doesn't work for afk cloaked ships. You all like killing ships in space or? The Op only ask for a way to kill somebody who should be killable when he undocks and sits somewhere afk. Indus shouln't fly afk throug empire, why should somebody in 0.0 be safer?
Maybe a special scanning array, that can be placed somewhere in the system, which finds cloaked ships could help. But it has to be destroyable and we would get a new target for small gang pvp. |
