For cloak + sniper. That cloak wont be ideal, very noticable on shorter distance, and wont be permanent (was mentioned its only for easier change of your location than for long invisibility).
No packets sent to enemies. The server still know where you are, if a bullet or other person hits you then they will receive the packet saying so. It's so you cant use anything client side that would allow you to detect a cloaker.
