Lightbulb Infiltrator Suit Variation: Blend


★★★★★
Vote Up!
Concealment variations:
  • Camouflage (Selective - player has to change to adapt)
  • Cloak (Active - 'Cloak' button)
  • NEW: Blend (Passive - no button)



Camouflage (Selective) - Benefits you with enhanced concealment and applies to all armors. That's it, and that's awesome. (No Cons except mis-matching surroundings).

Cloak (Active) - The Infiltrator Suit allows active movement whilst invisible and near-perfectly blends you into surroundings when stationary and mobile but is vulnerable to Darklight detection, flawed of its cloaked curvature edges, saps Energy and is least armored. Cannot underlay with physical Camouflage paint.

Blend (Passive) - A less sophisticated version of Cloak invisibility utilizing less-demanding colour-changing Nanites instead of translucent liquidation for electronic Camouflage. The Infiltrator Suit has a variation of stealth. It adapts only when stationary (7 seconds) unlike Cloak's astonishing actively-adapting energy-draining. This conserves energy allowing more Shield capacity and perfectly blends yourself to the surroundings with camouflage, computed adaptation. No cloaked curvature edges. Hands-free (no need to press 'Blend' button).
Cons: When moving from Blended position, the adapted camouflage pattern sticks which then diminishes after 4 seconds of movement. EMP halts computing which prevents auto-blending into surrounding flora. Cannot underlay with physical Camouflage paint.
- Ideal for snipers and dedicated anti-Cloakers.
- A mixture between Camouflage & Cloak.
- Refer: MGS4 Trailer of character's suit.
Thread: Better Stealth Gameplay



Cloak or Blend. Same infiltrator suit but a different device of different 'epoxy color nanites' if you like, with a different computation.
- Cloak variation: No Shield, very effective whilst mobile but vulnerable to Darklight detection.
- Blend variation: Lowly-Shielded suit, avoids Darklight detection and very effective only whilst stationary.

It's new to PlanetSide and attractive. Variations have become something of PlanetSide2 now as we all know it, and this could be another variation. Perfect for open-field support operations compared to the energy-draining of the Cloak, which saps your Personal Shield's power source. Ideal for snipers.

We want infiltrators(And people in general I guess) to be mobile, not sitting on a mountain somewhere taking potshots at people.
