Oh good, lets rebalance all ewar... and suddenly buff ecm.
People were talking about how ecm would get alot more used now with dampner rebalance, and on top of that you give the jamming ships a buff? Way to go... maybe look after patch at ecm ship usage instead of having multiple changes affecting 1 thing (ewar balance) in a quick go. I'd tell you, ecm ships wouldve been used alot even without this buff.
This is coming from a falcon pilot... ask any [Insert random pirate camp] how fail my falcon was with the poor 10% bonus. (and thats with medicore skills) 15% to the BS, keep falcon and BB at 10%... have a close look how extensively the new t2 ewar frig will be used aswell.
Hmmmmmmmm: This could actually be interesting, just lower some hac's sensor strenght a little, and you would see whole nanogangs getting permajammed by 1 ewar ship. Could be a counter... But still think its stupid to have 1 destinct kind of ewar needed for a gang.
Change first thing. See what happens. (You cant check this on test/dev servers, the players on TQ always find new ways to 'exploit' changes to the maximum.) Discuss if a new change is needed to balance further. Rinse and repeat.

It is a good buff, if you fly a ship focused on ECM with no tank with barly any damage - using the all MID slots (but one) for ECM you should have a greater success rate than 60-70% on at least 2 battleships.

Edited by: Waxau on 06/11/2007 23:11:11 Kk - ill explain, for new and old players.
Last year, during the great caldari nerf, ECM was nerfed (namely due to ECM/NOS domis). Those 2007 players who think nos domis were bad....imagine if you cant even target them back. However, due to this nerf, ALL ecm was nerfed. This meant that ECM ships were in effect made redundant in all but small small gangs. With the introduction however of singal dispersion amps, they got a SLIGHT boost, to that of being as good as a domi back in the days of 2006.
With this boost now hitting ECM ships, they are now back to their previous strength. A balanced one. It was voiced for the entire year, and straight after the patch, that folks thought that ECM should have been nerfed for ONLY non-ecm ships.
Another arguement was that caldari was made less useful in pvp. At the time, we had barely no pvp ships. Or capable pvp ships. The ferox was near to useless, the raven wasnt the best choice for the long range battles, and the harpy/hawk arent the most useful ships to say the least for pvp. That left caldari with the ecm ships, and the crow.
Then the ecm ships went.
This boost puts caldari back on par with other races. And even more so, in role play aspects, caldari are always favoured as a 'fleet' race. Strength in numbers, rather than singularity. Such as gallente, vs caldari.
So to finish off - The falcon may be a fantastic jammer, and a hell of an annoying opponent, but solo - its little more than a fly buzzing around your head, and is as much risk as an air molecule. Those who think its overpowered, will just have to have a taste of what it feels like to be anything other than the superior race (gallente...) lol
Just for clarity:
ECM ships have NO damage, NO tank, NO speed, NO defence, NO tackling equipment.
All they have is ECM.

Edited by: Ceridan02 on 07/11/2007 11:21:35 The Scorpion with this "boost" is as strong as it was before the ECM nerf.... it took only one year to for CCP to find this out.
Before the nerf the ECM Moduls had 100% strength¦, the Scorpion a Bonus of 10%/level. After the nerf the ECM Moduls have 50% strength, but the Bonus didnt change to 20% which makes jamming like Blackbird with the same bonuses.
ECM is the only role the Scorpion fits in, plated it is flying like a Moon and does nearly no damage.
