In the instance of a Medium Caldari POS at war (highsec), in the opinion of W&T, is it better to use your precious powergrid for a variety of ECM plus some hardeners, or better to skip the ECM entirely and go for max hardeners? Obviously, a Large Caldari tower has the option of going into standard dickstar mode as it has both the fitting and bonuses to do so, but I'm curious to see what you all think in the case of a medium.

For Highsec I'd say you want some ECM, reason being it will put of people looking to AFK it in laser boats. Having to sit at your keyboard for 2 hours re-locking is (in my opinion) a much greater ordeal than sitting there for 4 hours AFK / semi-AFK.

Deffo ECM for high sec, since attackers can not bring ecm immune ships (sieged dreads)
