Man I would like to fight some of the scorp set ups in this thread. tanking in a scorp.. bah!

A scorp is an ECM boat, thats what should be the main focus of the ship.

Theres two ways to go about the scorp. In a fleet battle, you can probaly get away with having 1 shield booster and all the rest ECM. You need high skills to run this set up but it should be possible. In the low slots just throw in PDU's.

In terms of what jammers you should be using, do not use multispectrum II jammers. On a scorp, throw in racial jammers and this way when you put the jammer on someone you know they will be jammed. Also, signal dispersion 4 and at least caldari BS lvl 4 is a must for being an effective scorp pilot. This way you have a jammer strength of 10. Dont worry about high slots too much in a scorp, nosferatu and drones are your friends for getting rid of tacklers.

Part 2:

When dealing with small engagements when you are definitely going to be called primary, sensor boosters are your absolute friend. Since your mid slots are all jammers except for your shield booster, you are not going to be able to tank very well. Therefore its imperative that you lock and jam your enemies before they lock and wtfpwn you. Its also very important if you are fighting another scorp. If the scorp locks u first, its bye bye time. I've lost one scorp so far in pvp and that was to another scorp because he had more tech II sensor booster than I did.

Overall a safe pvp set up to fly around in for a scorp would be for the mid slots: 2 tech II sensor boosters, 5 Racial jammers, or 4 racial jammers and a multispec, and one X-large clarity or Cl-5 emergency shield boost.
