Stalker Cloaking

The  is an active ability available to the Infiltrator. It is at rank 1 and can be upgraded using Certification Points.

When activated, the Stalker cloak cloaks the user, camouflaging them with their surroundings by turning them mostly tansparent and clearing spots. The device stays active for the listed duration while the user is moving—however, if the user remains stationary the ability's energy will instead begin recharging (though at a slower rate than if the cloak was not active), allowing the device to have a theoretically infinite duration.

While equipped, Stalker Cloaking disables the user's primary weapon slot, regardless of what weapon is equipped. If the user attempts to equip their primary weapon, they will be met with an error message stating "Primary Weapon Slot Disabled". The use of sidearms in the primary weapon slot via the Advanced Specialization Program cannot bypass this restriction.

To toggle this ability, press the Use Ability hotkey ( by default).

Certification
"Stalker cloak does not drain energy as long as the infiltrator remains stationary, allowing the cloak to last indefinitely. However, stalker cloak prevents the use of the infiltrators primary weapon and regenerates slower than normal cloak."
