"silly" falloff is good. After skills they have an optimal of 45k and a falloff of 90k. This makes them still rather effective for up to 100k. With rigs they can be equally efficient at 150k as ECM.

All of the fights have been illuminating. The caracal slaughter where ships instapopped was amazing, as was Goonies close range fight. BoB was very impressive but relied on a more balanced fleet. What is most interesting is how lethal ecm/sensor damping cruisers are against battleship fleets. While this tournament is not way representative of true PvP, it does highlight that sensor dampening is the new ECM issue.
Personally, I think a nerf is on the cards, but whether it becomes chance based is another thing. Perhaps, a nerf in the form of balancing sensor boosting against sensor dampening may be reasonable but we shall see.

In real PvP, damps are not as effective because engagement ranges vary considerably, all you need to do is get in close and pop the damping ships.
Dampers seem unbalanced in the tournament because contestants can't warp off, and the damping team gets to pick engagement range. Add to this the fact that tackle is unneccesary and it automatically plays to a Caracal's strengths, which in real PvP are easy to counter by closing range or warping off and back.

I think you forgot the 3rd tournament was also a damp shagfest, biased towards gallente in fight for that very reason, so the onyl fair way is to allow all or nothing, personally i feel the rules are the best they could be, despite my personal distaste for ewar.
that and the best named damps now cost 15m alongside arb heavies due to the intense missle spam ___________________ "The Views & Opinions Expressed In This Post Represent Those of My Corporation & Alliance. So Go **** Yourself" DJTheBaron: FATAL Alliance Diplomat |
