I am interested in seeing which empire's stealth you think will be the best fpr what jobs. Currently, we have a good understanding of what the stealth armour does, we have an idea of the weapons that each group has, so we can begin to piece together some of the specialties each stealth armour would have. I would think that all stealths would make good hackers, though that goes without saying. (BTW, does hacking equip. take up the pistol or knife slot?)
Every group has the AMP, which does medium damage and is extremely rapid fire, would would be good for assassinations and close quarters (perhaps a stealth guarding gens and consoles).
The Vanu will have the only stealth that could possibly take out light vehicles, and would be able to take out a max if the stealths were all in a team. Furthermore, they would possess high levels of hit-and-run ability with their weapon, as a group could probably take out a vehicle if they attacked at the same time and focused their fire on a single target, and then ran away.
Depending on how shooting while in stealth is handled (do you "phase in" for a second after firing, or do you remain invisible?), the TR has the possiblilty of having relativly long range abilites with it's stealths, which would make them perfect for ambushes and surprise attacks, as they would be able to attack from afar, and then run and have enough of a head start to hide before the opponenet could track them down.
Finally, it seems that the NC stealths would be able to sneak into a squad, or perhaps hide directly in the squad's path, and then open fire as soon as they are quite close, dealing heavy damage to multiple opponents quickly, perhaps disabling the opposing suad before they are able to retaliate. However, they have the least ability to damage heavier armors (seeing as the weapon is a shotgun)
Thoughts?
