Don't you mix sth up here? warp scrams are the close range ones, arazus don't get a bonus on warp scrams only disruptors
they get to both
Which is my biggest objection in the proposed changes. That is WAY WAY too much power to give to a single module, it's so overpowered that you are going to see them literally every single engagement on every sort of ship.

Answering a few common questions:
Do WCS counter the Warp Scramblers ability to disable MWD's?
- No, not in our current implementation. We've thought about it, but as is, they don't.
Do Warp Scramblers still disable your warp drive?
- Yupp.
Will my MWD be affected by Bubbles?
- No, it won't.
Close range tracking, blasters, webbies, etc.
- Disabling the MWD + -60% speed reduction is far more effective than the old -90% webifier. This of course only applies to MWD targets. Afterburner targets will be less vulnerable to close range damage dealing ships, but that's part of the change, the verity. Smaller faster moving targets will have a better chance of evading death, but I'm sure drones on blaster boats will come in handy here.
We're also considering on removing the stacking penalty from stasis webifiers, but that really comes down to testing.
We'll keep a close eye on this when it hits SISI.
Specialized webifing & MWD ships have dated bonsues.
- We'll keep a close eye on these ships once the changes hit SISI.
Death to small roaming gangs
- Small roaming gangs existed long before polycarbon engine housings and snake sets. Sure we're reducing the maximum speed achievable but you'll still be able to go a lot faster than a standard MWD fit with various speed mods.
Avoiding the tough question, as always... These changes seriously destroy close range combat (ie: blasters).
And one single module that can do two different things (kill warp and MWD) is WAY overpowered.

Thanks for ending solo pvp guys.
CCP <3's the blob
This sure seems to be a game change that will benefit "Max" doesn't it, since it will have the effect of not allowing ANY impediment to BOB's superblob (except bring bigger superblob) won't it? I don't really like nanos, but these changes basically mean the END of any form of "hit and run" warfare.
We all know that bob=ccp.
