Cloak the bane of our existence. Yes it is frustrating but with persistence you will eventually catch the cloaker, and the kill is that much more worth while.

Well, at the end of the day - We're not NPC's.. And we don't want to die. IMO we should decide if we want to fight or not (Like the old TEF system - but two way not the bygged one) - If a Jedi dosent want to fight, they cloak... you lost.

Cloak is seriuosly messed up atm for one thing you get Combat music when aggro npc's are about and they follow you everywhere as I use cloak for pvp to check places out this IS NOT good cos they know I'm there, another thing you get Vis wdf? how can a npc or whatever see someone INVISIBLE!!!!, another thing you have a fecking shaow ffs!! and no you can only use your own ship for travelling and not use the ticket term or collectoer and another thing you can converse :/
Hope this helps

Why not drop the cloak skill if it sucks so much?

If you wanted cloak to be right, then it should only cloak you to whoever you have targeted. I don't think even the most powerful jedi could make themselves invisible to EVERY living thing with eyes on the planet...

They cannot use ticket vendors and shuttle cloaked for a fact. If a Jedi cloaked and chooses not to fight, if he's smart he doesn't have to. Not all Jedi are required to be BH content. Some have cloak and choose to not fight. I do the same when I'm not in the mood or busy with a project in game. But I've won every duel with a BH, including the MBH/MCMs. So I rarely choose not to fight.
Cloaking does have it's limits and there are strategies to counter it that I will never mention. But it's not any of this area KD or bringing ppl to drain force or any of the other REALLY RETARDED ideas and exploits others mention.

Heh, cloak isn't too much of a big deal... though it is a little lame knowing that they'll just run and cloak if the battle isn't in their favor... What HAS been p*ssing me off is this damn "Can not KD recover while KD" ... heck, kd in general is borked.
Easy, /sit then KD recover. Never happened to me, but I've heard that fixes it.

That is not possible. I can stand in middle of a krayt dragon cloaked and not take a SINGLE hit. So this scenerio DIDN'T happen to a cloaked Jedi.

Because it could be viewed as exploiting - you dont see anything where the Jedi is, the Jedi is clouding your mind. The reason that this only happens in simple shadow mode (and all shadow modes with higher detail turn off the shadow of a cloaked Jedi) should tell you something. This is the reason why with pub 23 there will be no more shadows from cloaked Jedi according to the Test Center patch notes.
They are permabanning exploiters like you.
