This was discovered very long ago, but is still not fixed. Cause if this was what CCP intended, then ECCM is useless.
What I'm talking about is of course the active medslot items that give +3.
They have a 10 second cycle.
And every time it cycles, be it just for 1/100 of a second, your radar strength drop and you loose your target. With the slow targeting speed of a battleship, it doesn't do any good to be able to target a ship, then loose target just some second later, and do it all over again.
So. Suppose a tier 2 battleship meets a Scorpion which is only using 4 multispectral.
1 active +3 ECCM should be enough (giving it 17), but it isn't. You'll need to fit either 2 lowslot +2 or use 2 medslot +3.
So... is this problem ever going to get fixed?
Or, if you can't fix it, make the activation time on medslot ECCM much longer, like 60 seconds...

Always the small things that get forgotten, except this is a major bug and should be fixed ASAP.

this needs addressing
Team work is essential... It gives the other team something ELSE to shoot at!

Good call, dalman.
This is a pain and essentially makes those mid-slot ECCM toys useless in a battle.
Please fix this.
Cheers,
TOM

I have just resigned myself to this one never been fixed, i recall a deve saying it was a very minor problem.
Obviously they have never actually fought in their own game.

This should have been fixed a LONG time ago, this makes it very hard for ppl to defend from ECM, i mean looseing a 90mill bs cos some litle module is broken has to hurt!
I mean this is a stupid problem to have.

one possible way to deal with the issue (I don't see it as a bug) is to run two ecm modules and stagger their activation (activate one, wait 5 seconds, activate the other.) Yes, this takes up an additional med slot but such is the price to pay for not losing your lock when your sensor strength falls below the ecm level.

damn i didnt even know about this one and was just congratulating myself on how well I would be able to take on all those ECM ships in my shiny new Battleship.
basically this means that I can throw away the medslot ECM and waste a few more lows?
pleeeeth... this is a rather urgent one, since everyone and their grandmother are flying scorps.
and i dont want to go back to scorp EW warfare.

Heh.
EW is already kind of overpowered, with people running 6 multispectrals... There's no way you can get enough ECCM without using medium slots. On top of that more than 1 or them.

Adding another voice in the wilderness.
It may be a "small" bug but surely it cant be rocket science to fix?

Good thing I read this, I was counting on an ECCm module to save my but against someone I know will try to jam me :-/ Guess Ill be doing a different tactic agaisnt the so called offender.
You know who you are. The Caldari State has investigated the matter and asked us to remove your Scorpion from the universe. The crime, Transporting slaves to and from the now famous "slave farm" in Minmatar space. We will find you, and as requested by the Caldari State, we will terminate you.
Spelling corrections welcome, but don't expect me to edit my post. |
