My Solution to problematic Armor Abilities

Now we all have at one time another raged over another player over using an armor abilities at some point or another. I personally hate how armor lock is so easily exploited, being able to enter and exit quickly, on top of that it just slows the game down a bunch of guy huddled around someone who is we all know is doomed, and I know I'm not alone and for this I've come up with a simple solution and that being that the Plasma Pistol E,M.P blast to disable most of the Armor Abilities, (Almost being all but sprint and evade). Really this would only effect Jetpack and Armor Lock, but come on who wouldn't want to see that guy with the rockets and the Jetpack get emp and fail out of the sky.

It would also make Elite Slayer a bit more interesting being, in my experience, only amounting to throwing a sticky and going into armor lock. It's also worth mentioning that this change would make Armor Abilities pointless as unless you're playing the aforementioned Elite Slayer plasma pistols are often scattered around the map already adding a short of balance if this change is implemented.

That's actually a really interesting idea. But it also makes the plasma pistol a bit over powered, too. I dunno. Disable Jet Pack, Armor Lock and I would throw in Active Camo as well. Leave Sprint, Evade, Hologram and Drop Shield. Interesting. I like it.

Could see this working, as far as I know EMP already kills Holograms and Drop Shields, so I don't see why it shouldn't disable other abilities too. At the moment it's actually a somewhat underused weapon outside of Big Team Battle, so giving it an extra kick against Armor Abilities might make its use a bit more common.
