Note - I re-posted the idea here to move it, so could a Mod delete the old post in the Feedback section. Thanks.

I originally thought of this idea when i first entered Sol and, seeing Mantis Assassins with their Crypsis ability, thought it would be fair if we could use the same technology, but for shorter periods of time rather than forever. The item set for the stealth class would be similar to that of an engineer and tank class, with a few modifications to make it more suited to stealth and support purposes. Due to the absence of Assassins, this class would be for Sol and up.

Equipment

5. Crypsis Target* - Makes a single Clan/Squad mate , or yourself, stealthed for 60s. Would drop from;
Mantis Assassins(Sol/Draconis),
Mantis/Imperial/Methanoid/Pirate Medium Strength Unit (Sirius)(Tier 1(Same as Repair Target Tier)
Abasis, Ignomes, Odion (Sol - Sirius Ancient/Strong/Rapid)

6. EM (ElectroMagnetic) Modifier - Reduces the hit rate of a target, but to less of a standard than an Aim Scrambler, as well as increasing the chance to hit that target, but to less of a standard than an Aim Computer. (Effect lasts for 75s)(Same as Aim Computer active time)
Would drop from;
Mantis Assassins(Sol/Draconis),
Mantis/Imperial/Methanoid/Pirate Strong Unit (Sirius)(Tier 2(Same as Aim Scrambler/Computer Tier)
Anubis, Keops, Osiris, DS Commander (Sol - Sirius Ancient/Strong/Rapid)

7. Crypsis Field* - Similar to Crypsis Target, but stealths all (Not including yourself) around you for 45s.
Would drop from;
Imperial Rep Node(Sol),
Mantis Mender (Draconis),
Mantis/Imperial/Methanoid/Pirate DS Commander/Boss Unit (Sirius)(Tier 3(Same as Repair Field Tier)
Giza (Sol - Sirius Ancient/Strong/Rapid)

8. Aggro Pulse - Opposite to Aggrobomb. Deals less damage in a similar radius to Aggrobomb, but repels Mantis/Imperials/etc. from attacking you for 5-10s**.
Would drop from;
Mantis Detonator (Sol/Draconis),
Mantis/Imperial/Methanoid/Pirate DS Commander/Boss Unit (Sirius)(Tier 3(Same as Aggrobomb Tier)
Giza (Sol - Sirius Ancient/Strong/Rapid)

*Crypsis level is the same as a Mantis Assassins', you can still be seen and shot at, but hostiles (a.k.a Mantis, Imperials, etc.) wont attack you unless you attack them first (while stealthed).

** Different effect in PvP. Players in the blast radius can't attack the Aggro Pulse user for 5s.

Sirius (Hybrid)

- Designed not to be shot at or even seen, this makes one of the perfect hit and run ships.It can snipe you from a mile away (not really), and not be seen in the act. Should you get too close, the Aim Scramblers will fire up, and will then proceed to scare you away (mentally) with the fearful Aggro Pulse.
5. Sniper Blaster (Tier 3)
6. Crypsis Target (Tier 1)
7. Aim Scrambler (Tier 2)
8. Aggro Pulse (Tier 3)

Other blueprint names follow the pattern of all other blueprints in the game;
Zero Point (R58), ZP Power (R60), Oolyte (R73), Dolomyte (R76), Clay (R79) Kenyte (R82), and Ancient/Strong/Rapid (R85)

Equipment Icon Concepts
Sorry for the bad quality, saving in .jpeg ruined the colour balance. I may work on restoring the quality later. Order from left to right is Crypsis Target, EM Modifier, Crypsis Field then Aggro Pulse.

Any suggestions for the class. Leave them below and I will work on improving it.

Thanks for reading,
Dark_Shadow, Askone.

Edit 01 - Tried taking Draconis into account, but will need more accurate info on what appears in Sirius before I can attempt to determine what should drop it there.

Edit 02 - Attempt at adding Sirius drops using the tier system on PG Prelude.

Edit 03 - Added PvP effect of the Aggro Pulse

Edit 04 - Biggest update for this WIP yet. Added 'Ancient' drops, again using information from PG Prelude. Changed 6.Jammer to 6. EM Modifier, and added a second effect to it. Added names for the blueprints, as well as Ship Names and drop locations (If it does get implemented). Modified Grammar and Ordering in place.

Edit 05 - Completing Edit 06, I removed this edit, for now...

Edit 06 - Moved to the actual suggestion forums. Also changed timings for Crypsis Target/Field and EM Modifier. Also thought of a random parsec name for the fun of it :D, as well as a Hybrid ship.

Edit 07 - Decided to re-add Edit 5, which was concepts for the equipment icons.
