Should cloakers be given another pistol slot?

It may be incredibly strong, but its a melee weapon, meaning you have to be right in your target's face, with no armor.

and the second shot is slow as fuck, not to mention that you can only use it if theres just one person....

I think that we should be able to hotkey items in our inventory. For example, if I were to hit F5, I would like for my infiltrator to drop whatever he is holding on the ground and pull out an AMP, or for my agile to hit it, drop his bolt-driver, and pull out an assult rifle.

IMO the entire inventory system in PS is borked, and the issues afecting infiltrators are just one of many reprecussions of poor game design.

attach reks to pistols!!!

Cloakers are balanced, If its not messed up dont try and fix it.

... not tootin my horn here, but it would honestly double my kills. an infils most vulnerable time is either a: reloading or b: inventory switching

or c. somebody will dl and a jackhammer

Well we'll never really know that, will we? With all these bugs we never get to see the full potential infiltrators have.

As said, give them a tool slot. REK/BANK/MedApp/ACE/Laze

This brings me to my next point, a bandoleer for grenades. It is long enough (horizontally) to hold 3 or 4 grenades, and one end of it is marked green on the inv screen. It is only "tall" enough to hold one grenade, you cannot double stack them. The bandoleer is assigned to key 6, remappable obviously. When pressed, the grenade is thrown, Halo style, only lowering your weapon. It is on a three second timer. Grenades are thrown in order, starting with closest to the green stripe on the bandoleer.
