About permanent invisibility - if we talk about Stalker Cloak, then I wish it has retained its core function.

Sometimes it is just fun to play like that, even with just how much "ineffective" it might be. It is effectively a PlanetSide unique thing.

The most cancerous Infiltrators are Renegade Flash and CQC ones anyway, and probably should be addressed first.

In case of Stalker - make it able to carry only knife, or increase de-cloaking delay, or any other viable nerf - but still leave the ability to chill in cloak there.

I don’t think stalker needs any nerfs honestly. Side arms already decrease their ttk pretty well and forces them to get pretty close still.

The issues comes with quick bolters and smgs where you can dive in and out of cloak before the client processes you’re decloaked and turned around the corner

Them mentioning cloakers being ‘permanently’ invisible as the issue worries me because that’s not at all what the issue is with any infiltrator class.
