Notice that this is an *intended* advantage of Klingon and Dominion non-combat ships! They are armed, and as such, it might not be wise to attack them with a single scout!Hebrewhammer wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 8:14 pm I just recently played another campaign and I am not sure if the detection had been tweaked on this most recent patch but on the previous patch I lost 2 cloaked klingon scout III's to 2 jem'hadar colony ship III's. It was 1 v 1 on both engagements with both ships having equal crew exp.
The Klinngons and the Dominion need a few of these smallish advantages. Like the other empires have other advantages.
Are you basing this observation solely on this type of episode, or do you feel it is a universal thing?It feels like cloaking is more of a liability and not an advantage at this point.
I'm asking because other players are confortable with the current state of cloaking. I'd like to understand better why you feel it is a liability.
Notice that cloaking is supposed to be most effective in "swarm" attacks, preferable when the enemy is outnumbered, rather than in 1v1 battles.I understand that you are currently trying to balance the mechanic however I would keep in mind that the klingon and romulan vessels have over all slightly less shields and hull then their counter parts along with the lack of full shield strength after the opening turn.
Thanks! Yes, all feedback is welcome, and ways to improve it too. If you have suggestions on changes, please post them.I sure its still in adjustment phase at this point, but thought I would let you know what happened and maybe further adjustments to cloaking might be made down the line. However right now I seem to have more success running my fleets without cloaking.
