Thread: DWB Exploiters are going to get Cloak NERFED

Why are you complaining, the only people who should get flamed are the jedi defending it. All that needs to be done is A, make cloak master (which it should be anyways would fix a lot of other PvP things) and make it so cloaked jedi cant open a container while cloaked.
Making Droids immune to the effects of Cloak solves the problem.
Moving the ability to master changes nothing.
I don't see why a Cloaked Jedi would not be able to open acontainer. He is not vanished from the face of the planet he is just using the force to conceal himself from others. This affect should only affect players, and NON droid NPC's.
Where did cloak come from anyway? Did we get it because WoW has it? I've never been deep into Star Wars lore but I don't recall seeing it in the movies. I do recall Jedi being able to 'hide' thier presence. But I alway took this to mean that Jedi could hide the fact that they were Force Sensetive from other Jedi (much like the Emperor did from the Jedi counsol) rather than turning invisible.
But it's here to stay so I hope everyone can come to so agreement on how it should work before the Devs make up thier own mind. We all know how well that usually goes...

Oh, and if we are saying Cloak is a Jedi mind trick should it really work against other Jedi? Just a thought.

Cloak existed in the other Starwars Games i think.. not really sure anymore but in Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith the skill existed i believe...
However cloak was also beeing used in the films.... When Obiwan is on Mustafar and orders his droid to leave with the ship he actually bords the ship and is later outside his shipin his cloak
Same way he later bords Padmes Ship .. it was just so that he wasnt really invisible..

And in some cases drawing these SBDs to groups that attempt to use the DWB so they will not compete with the loot whores doing it. Any time Jedi do something that has a negative effect on gameply for others we are going to get hit with another NERF bat.Don't you think we get enough complaints about Jedi already? Do we really need another nerf because a few Jedi think the DWB belongs to them alone? Grow up people!
Now this is something on cloak that I agree is going to force a darn nerf. I hate talk about nerfing cloak, but come on people, use it responsibly!
Hello nerfherders. All you talk is about nerfs. Why not nerf the entire game so all professions are alike the there will be no more whining about this and that... ohwell, then the whining is all about all professions are alike.
NERF on!

Please stop whining and saying that cloakers are ruining your death watch bunker experience by looting the chest at the beginning because every person has a chance to loot it. Its not justJedis with cloak but also Jediswith Avoid Incap or just people with burstrun could run down there and loot it real fast. Its just like the aakuan cave afk campers, people complain about them saying they are stealing all there lootjust so they can camp the same thing.
You guys are also saying that cloakers get all the agro on you in the dwb by leading all the npcs to you? Unless you arean idiot and you use an area attack, area heal, or buff somonewhen all the npcs come by you they arent going to agro you. The jedi cant stay down there long with 20 npcs on him without losing all his force in the process. I do agree that you should report these people for doing stuff like that but not to nerf the skill all together. Like other people posted nerf the people not the skill.

If you keep yelling cloakers are exploiting DWB in Jedi Forums, you're going to get it nerfed
Are you suggesting that we should just ignore it and not go down there anymore so the cloakers or the DWB doesn't get nerfed?
