it's ok though, cloak takes no cap and you can't find the person unless he magically decloaks while afk but you know that won't happen while hes in the middle of space and there is noting there
in my opinion cloaks are very op and need a nerf :) like the prices of dreads need a nerf lol Posting in I'm scared of afk players No. 14235 and how do you know they are afk ? you cant - you have to assume they are active, and ready to hotdrop you with a fleet of scary ships with experienced pilots and a capable FC. And as there is no way to know you have to prepare for the worst least you get burned, lose a ton of isk and get ridiculed by your alliance and corpmates. Preparing for the worst does not include sitting in a station. Preparing for the worst means getting all of your corp/alliance mates operating within a couple of systems radius to be in gang, organized and ready to PVP while they are going about their normal business. When word comes that a hot drop is in progress they need to be able to respond instantly, with a designated FC ready to take command. I'll say this as gently as possible, you really need to start thinking like a predator instead of thinking like prey.
I would love to see a setup, that is supposed to work against this sort of threat.
You dont pve in pvp fitted ships, if you do, you're wasting your time.
You dont have people on standby, because what would they do? - Yes they could be alts, but those alts could do something better.
You can have an ever so experienced FC, it won't do anything good though. Because the ships you're flying at fitted for anything but pvp.
1. Those people that says ignore the local neut, are terrible players.. i would not be surpised to see their head on a stick, on a nice killmail, flying a pve fitted ship worth billions.
2. If you ignore an obvious threat(however so slight it might be) you're a fool. You dont prepare for the worst, you stay away from it.
3. You never know if that cloaky is afk or not, therefore he's a threat regardless of him actually being there or not, if you see it in any other way, you're gambling. And if you gamble you might loose simple as that. Play safe, and stay alive.
3. Cloaking is incredibly powerfull, it is a powerfull to what danger a human-being percieves it to be. That being that it's an unknown, and we all know how humans reacts to unknowns aiiight?
4. Cloaking is being looked at! Stated by mr. Fozzie, in a newish interview on twitch, i dont remember which one but it's fairly recent <1 month i believe.
#0 The best way to counter a cloaky is to start ratting in another system. If that cloaky moves system, to yours... you can try and bait him.
