Not true at all. It's quite useful in the playtesting I've been doing. It's ideal on high PS ships so you can see the position of all ships and determine if this round you need the extra green dice to survive. Say 5 ships are pointing at you- would you rather shoot one of them and then try to just tank the rest of the shots with a focus action? Or just cloak and not shoot, but have a higher chance of evading the 5 attacks.

I've been using it on Attani Mindlink/Stygium Particle Accelerator Talonbane- So when turns come up where you could be fous fired, you get to cloak and have a focus and evade token, and then next turn you'll have the sweet decloak hard 1 that the Phantoms have access to.

I don't think it's amazing- obviously not to be thrown on Zs or Hawks, but there's real potential for it to have a spot on Guri and Talonbane. And it breaking isn't all that bad. You only cloak when you need to, that;s only once or twice a game.
