Is it true that target painters have no effect for others?
That is, if there were say, three Vigil class frigates orbiting a battleship and target painting it while their Tempest buddy is firing at it would the target painters give the Tempest pilot a bonus?

Target painting increase the overall sig for the target ship

Thats part of what I'm wondering about, is there a stacking penalty on effects from multiple sources?

Devs said somewhere on the forums that there is a stacking penalty, but it was/is bugged.

get a corpmate and 2 or three target painters and test it out ... and report back here! :)

Thats probably where I got it from, thanks... it's been annoying me that I couldn't remember where I got this notion from.

I thought I'd bother the good people of this forum before harrassing 4 corpmates into a fight
But if there is supposed to be a penalty, does it not stand to logic that the other EW stuff should get a penalty? Wouldn't it offset the balance between Vigil, Crucifier, Griffin and Maulus?
I agree that there should be a penalty, but I think it should be universal for all EW. I feel it should be more effective to have a single ship with 4 jammers than a group of them each with one. Same with warp scrambling just implement the stacking formula for fitted modules into remote effects if they are from multiple sources. It would require more teamwork in fleet engagements... to maximize efficiency. It would prevent a group of five Griffins from toying with pretty much any ship in the game.
