Assembly Hall

No it wouldn't....your presuming that the cloakie is even close enough to you.

Anyone cloakie worth his salt would only need to be within visual range...that means 75 to 100km or more.

The only time one would be on your ass (putting it midly) is to pop a cyno and even then it won't matter because they intend to do just that caught or not.

Right because gate camps need a buff and the already pre-gimped cloak ships need another nerf.

Cloaks are an extremely powerful tool in this game. They have pretty much 2 purposes:

1.) To safely hide from an enemy. (regular cloaks)
2.) To safely navigate through space. (covert cloak)

If you negate either of these aspects with a new game mechanic, you make the cloak (nearly) useless. As such, any decloaking tools need to be balanced such they don't impede the primary role of the cloak.

Your decloak field completely negates covert cloaks, ******* over the balance of covert ops, stealth bombers, force recons, and various t3 configurations.

You need to think before you post. Your idea has no drawbacks, and essentially negates several CLASSES of ships. Do you comprehend how bad it is? Why did you propose it? Perhaps you can redeem yourself by explaining why you think a mechanic like this needs to exist, and what you're trying to accomplish...

Two more points:
1.) Assembly hall is for well thought out ideas.... Brainfarts like this belong in Features and Ideas....
2.) Ideas EXACTLY like this have been proposed many times before... do some research before regurgitating craptastic ideas on the forum!

You mean there is someone that takes his game time to sit and wait like a trapdoorspider waiting for hours until there is someone passing by.

RESPECT!!

easy to counter though, make sure you're in a fleet that can come to your aid and make sure your hauler can substain some damage. or make the hauler faster and more agile, keeping aligned will help as well.

I emphasized the important part of your post. If you want WH space (arguably meant to be the most unsafe place in EVE) to be safe for a lone hauler you're crazy.

If you cannot figure out how to counter a ship with literally the worst EHP in the game then a move to high sec might be in order.

Would quickly become as mandatory as bubbles themselves and represents extremely easy/cheap protection from cloakers.

If anything should be done, then treat them like contemporary subs and have sub-hunters that 'ping' local space for an approximate vector to target .. accuracy dependent on type of cloak and range from ping'er. Actual decloaking would still require you to move within the required range.

Ideally, hunting for cloaks, should be a team/group effort.

What's ridiculous is your statement above.

Please hop in a Stealth Bomber and go and go try doing this yourself, then come back and tell us what a great productive use of your time and effort it was.

You should also note it's only risk free so long as your just sitting watching not doing anything, you know kind of like sitting in a POS or a station.

A smartbomb-like pulse with a long timer that deactivates cloaks for 1 or two seconds. Long enough to spot and bump it with a inty or lock it with a booster. But not long enough it means automatically death for any cov-ops coming close.

or decloaking bomb with 30km area effect

This already exists.

Its called creating a drag bubble and putting a can on the edge.
