A 100 man blob just kills normal ECM ships before they can do anything. That's why we need offgrid ECM. It will let the elite pvpers fight outnumbered and win.

It's going to give everyone more good fights!

If you oppose offgrid ECM, you are a blobber and need not respond!

That's where you need to realize when ECM is useful, and when it isn't. Next you'll be complaining about how all your logi ships get popped right away by that 100 man blob.

I'd like it if my fleet had off-grid GM's so I can always win. Make it so CCP.

And if you oppose this, don't respond.

If ECM ships are getting ganked before they can do anything, then that indicates that they pose a large threat.

Therefore, they do not need a boost.

Tell me, how are elite pvpers supposed to fight the blob without off grid ECM?

We need this to make solo and small gang pvp possible in EVE!

Just in case anyone is being professionally stupid, he's taking the arguments that some people use to defend off-grid gang boosters, that they "let elite pvpers fight outnumbered" and "offer a counter to the blob", and applying them to ECM. Blink

Off grid gang boosters are perfectly balanced. Bring your own. Oh what's that, no skills? No friends? Sucks to be you.

He's also a moron (albeit a remarkably passive aggressive one) because there is no hard limit to the number of ECM ships you can bring and no barrier to replacing a lost one in combat.

Same can be said for remote ECM.

Also nobody mains an off grid gang booster, thats strictly an alt role.

So what you are saying is that's its perfectly balanced for the opposition to have to pay for a second account to balance things out.
