Looking at the activation cost of ECM multi's compared to sensor dampeners its 120 versus 30. Thats a huge difference. The way I figure it using racial jammers is a big gamble unless you already know what you'll be jamming which most of the times isn't the case. Using multi's you have to use quite a bit and with that kind of cap drain they don't seem worth it. Even though a couple large Nos supplement it that's still alot of cap drain and versus a couple opponents it's very risky.
With the dampners you can lock down anyones targeting extremely low and an keep range from most opponents, with Inty's being the exception and then ya just have to web them and nos them and they are toast. I could see using ecm in fleet but solo would dampeners not be the better option really?
Anyone used them to great affect or swear by em?

Damps have a stacking penalty and most people PVP with sensor boosters, thus being able to neglect the effect.

the thing is, the majority of ships out solo don't have sensor boosters fitted. raven, megathron, tempest, dominix and typhoon to name a few. the amarr ones always seem to have 2 sensor boosters fitted however

we look at them say "wow autocannons sure do suck,... oh well lets go boost amarr".

Even with sensor boosters though, with 8 midslots they would need a good amount I would think but even if it gave ya a 10km advantage they wouldn't be able to do anything really other than fof I suppose.

Wouldn't you need to worry about autopests, the rare blasterthron, geddons with MPs or Ravens or Vamp domi's? Just jam then and then nos them. Play to the ships strengths

Use a raven not a scorp. Fit stabs. Your good to go.

Yeah, why run when you can die. Doesnt make sense. Or does it?

Has anyone made the calculations on how many sensor dampeners gives what dampening strength vs. 1, 2 or 3 sensor boosters? This was changed resently i believe.

Tried something out recently - corp mate with a celestis, 3 damps (Celestis gets a bonus to damping ofc) against a geddon with two named (F-90's?) boosters. Sorry if I'm fuzzy on the detail it was just a quick test.
With no boosters on the damps got the geddon to about 70 seconds locktime and 11km target range
With both SB on lock time was 35ish seconds and 24km target range.
Just throwing this out, not saying that damps > sensor boosts and way more useful than the jamming skills I trained up that use modules that eat cap like a fat guy eats cake

try uing a mix of damps and ECM, the ECM to jam the opponent and the damps to insure hes still trying to lock you if the ECM fails.
use say 3-4 multis and 2-3 damps, with a crude armor tank in lows.

Greetings,
I am also interested to find out if anyone has the numbers regarding any stacking penalty for sensor dampeners. Is there maybe another thread that discusses it?
Boy a search feature for these forums would be really nice about now, or is there one and again I just missed it?

yep, i was thinking about the dampeners 2
for several reasons:
1) ecm has success rate, not all of them work, even u have 3 race ecm, sometimes fail to jam....
2) ecm r cap eater, they ate cap sooo fast.
