How does that sound?

We've all seen it.
PL with there faction BS sitting on gate at 50km , baiting for people who dares to aggro .
Not just PL , such is the practice of many mercenary corp .

No one would dare to engage them unless they're an absolute cretin .

HOWEVER , what if it were to change?

Ladies and gents!
I BRING you the CYNO JAMMER!

It has an effective range of 20km with a falloff of 10.
It can ONLY be fitted on Recon cruisers such as Rooks .
It has a PG and CPU requirement of 3-4 ECM jammers with a cycle time of 1 minute and it can only jam ONCE every 10 minutes.
Within that minute , obviously the cyno jammed won't be able to lit a cyno .
HOWEVER , at the same time , the jammer won't be able to warp off or use MWD.
Within that 1 minute ,with the target cyno jammed, the jammer can then lit his OWN cyno and dispatch of the target swiftly .

How does that sound?

It sounds like a post for Features and Ideas, not GD.

So what happens when both the bait ship and the cloaked recon ship next to it fit cynos?
What happens when the cyno is lit before the jammer is applied?

if it goes F&D , this will die :P

As it should, if there's no interest. Reporting for thread to be moved.

hmm your hurricane being killed by that PL rattle snake has nothing to do with this post right

On grid boosts and off grid cynos, the way space was meant to be played.

Its not like you can't see a hot drop coming a mile off if you have even a shred of common sense... don't get in scram range, switch to kiting setups and/or bump them over 500m/s so they can't light cyno or something instead of taking the unimaginative route of trying to get something nerfed purely because you lack the creativity to combat it.

And then what? Don't get into the webbing range of Loki-boosted Rapier and Lachesis combo, which can get you pinned from 100 km?

Might as well have put it this way: don't undock!11oneone

WE CAN see a hot drop coming , but even when we do , you MUST have the element of blob to have any chance to defeat a hot dropper , its a passive role.
That's why I'm suggesting the CYNO jammer .
Taking the initiative into our own hands and tackle the threat effectively.
EVERYTHING in this game has a counter , ECC. for ECM ,scram.ers for MWD, sensor disruptors for tacklers , tracking disruptors for snipers .
Now , cyno jammer for hot drop baits.

Hot droppers, like afk cloaking, are made to be an unstoppable and invincible strategy.

Welcome to eve, it aint changing
