    They don't.

    They do at the moment. The nerf hasn't hit live yet, but once it does EMPs will no longer drain jet pack and other ability energy.

    Correct. "Newest information" I assumed meaning test server. (Sorry about that - should have been more clear) Changes should be coming soon. TM

    Heads up, we are also due for Motion Spotter changes which tighten the radius (making it smaller) and turn the visuals into intermittent dots for our allies instead of "spotted" feature we see currently. (Similar to Recon Darts) The owner of the spotter still gets precise visuals like we have now, but only for our motion spotter that we plant. I have absolutely no idea when those motion spotter / changes are going to drop. Max units will soon function like vehicles "auto spotting themselves" at certain distance so you won't have to worry about loosing that perk to the motion spotter since it will be roughly standard for all infantry to detect them.

    Kinda happy about the smaller radius on motion spotters since less enemies will be drawn into traps collectively making them better for single targets or chaining ambushes and more stealthy. In contrast Darts will have larger area coverage, and since each dart fired pulses on its own timer, the scan rate for multiple darts could be stacked for your allies benefit. At least unless the devs change or tweak darts in the coming days to function like the crossbow darts, which are collectively locked to the same scan rate.
