That all sounds awfully complicated... Why not just normal cloak?

Because phasing and cloaking are fundamentally different things.

Even when you are cloaked you can still be hit.

[BillyRueben]

Because cloak is played out.

Then how do you counter ships that can go right through you and you have no way of finding it?

[BillyRueben]

Phase charges and scanners, and I'd imagine we will see a few more anti-phase weaponry, or some current ones get reworked to be able to target phased ships, before the full release.

Just like IRL we counter submarines with depth charges.

In the ASW arsenal, i really like the hedgehog. Fired 24 shots in a circle, which detonated upon impact with the submarine. Real dangerous

Phase "depth charges" makes the most sense; special ordinance which "phases in" to the target after being fired from a ship in normal space.  Think of it like surface ships hunting for submerged submarines, it's the same idea.

Sp if you dont have a Phase Charge Launcher, you're screwd?

There will likely be some sort of time/flux limit to staying in phase space, but we have yet to see the exact mechanics.

I suspect the Xyphos will suddenly become more popular (they have a phase beam).
