Just lost a Battleship on my daily solo roam. No big deal, but what is a big deal is how OP ECM is. Overheated eccm(And comp skills) giving me 60 magnometric sensor strength on a hyperion. PERMAJAMMED by a single falcon. I would have taken down 2-3 ships had the falcon not been there. Tanked them for several minutes while getting jammed cycle after cycle. Eventually my cap gave out and the day was won for them.
I look on my killmail and the last jam that landed was a minmatar jammer.....i was flying a hyperion with overheated ECCM! So screwed over with a Jammer not even matched to my race and overcoming overheated ECCM! This is way overpowered and needs to be changed...ECM needs a mechanics overhaul. The eve random number generator is too unreliable.

base mag for a phase inverter II is 1.2 level V recon ships gives 150% bonus to this level V signal dispersion gives 25% bonus to this Overheating gives 20% bonus to this Signal distortion amplifier II gives 20% chance to this
And that is for just the Phase Inverter II, an Ion field projector II would of given a base of 3.6 and a multispectral II would have a base of 2.4. Or you could do this with meta 1 (1,3 and 2 respectively). Any module would be getting those same bonuses. You are solo, you are the only target for a falcon which has 7 mid slots. Of course you are going to be near perma jammed. |

Lets assume the Falcon fit was 6 Jammers (4 race and 2 multi) there is still a chance that in the cycle the Minmatar could be the active one by chance. Most of the time you where likely jammed by one of the other 5 ECM's it just happen to be the one showing up on the KM.
In FW the strength of the opfor is normaly a lot less than 60 due to being frigs & crusiers. In a griffin the change of jamming is more like 50/50, so I think you where just unlucky. Next time don't fly alone.. Come join us for Amarr FW pvp-áaction. More info here:

ECM is a force multiplyer and it's designed in a terrible way and isn't subject to stacking penalty. Since a falcon is generally balanced around keeping 3-4 ships jammed, when you're the solo target even in an ECCM'd BS with only 1 racial of your sensor type on you, you are probably still going to be permajammed.
CCP knows it's broken and has promised us further changes/balancing in the future. Hopefully CCP fozzie will follow through with his promises. (See the Retribution EWAR changes thread). |

Lots of people like to solo, myself included, should it be a requirement of the game that everyone must fly in a gang?
Stupid comment of the day, either that or poor attempted troll. |

Let me spell it out for you...
His demise had NOTHING to do with ECM and everything with him being alone fighting a larger fleet.
you can solo all u like, just don't ***** and whine about it when u die to superior numbers. the ECM ship could just as well have been a logistics boat or another ewar vessel. the result would have been exactly the same. he dies and kills nothing.

It may be worth considering that I haven't seen a single gatecamp in the last six months that wasn't based around a Faclon, either alone or with friends. No other bubble ships even get used any more. That in itself should tell CCP that some balance issues exist. EvE Forum Bingo |
