Before I mess up the work of others I would like to discuss it here. For entirely new players it's often difficult to decide in what situations (PVE, PVP) to chose what fitting. I know fitting would be a different page. But I'd suggest, that in the be beginning of such a page there should be an introduction of when it's indicated to use ewar stuff. Again if someone reads carefully he/she will notice that the title is "EWar" and one isn't at War in PVE. But still it might be a help for noob's to give such an introduction. What do you think? --[[User:Schemha|Schemha]] 12:20, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

I plan to move cap warfare out of this page--I don't think it aligns with the four flavors of EWAR that go with the EWAR frigates and cruisers. The UniWiki also has separate content for Cap Warfare that is probably more appropriate than the little blurb here. -Antei

Graphical changes from 2018 help this article a lot--I like the module images, they make the sections a lot clearer. I could take or leave the changes to colored text; I think they helped, but I can also understand how someone could see them as distracting. Either way is good I think.

I disagree with putting equations in this page. The UniWiki currently has two large articles that discuss ECM: this article, and the ECM page (used to be called the ECM Guide). I think the ECM Guide is intended to be a more mathematical, technical guide to the topic; in principle, we could have math and equations for any of the four EWAR types, but it is distinctly valuable for ECM, so I'm glad we have that page. But I don't think you *have* to know math to use ECM, and so the EWAR page is, IMHO, better as an introductory, simpler approach to all four EWAR types. The EWAR article was written to suggest that you really don't *need* to know the math to use EWAR, and to get you in quickly. I recommend moving the equations to the ECM page (which is mentioned and linked at the bottom of the ECM section of this article).

*Enemy sensor strength, resolution, and type seems to have no effect on chance to be jammed.
 +
 
 +
*Jams happen throughout cycle. So number of ships jammed isn't as important as number of ships jammed over time.

 +
eg. 5 ships continuously jammed over 10 seconds or 12 ships continuously jammed for only 4.16 seconds.
 +
 
 +
*For 31 rats targeting user, 68% of the time 2 to 8 are jammed at any given point in cycle and 95% of the time, 0 to 11 are jammed at any given point in cycle.

Target Spectrum Breaker Data Summary

Moving target spectrum breaker experiment data here from the article. Hirmuolio pine (talk) 05:41, 12 December 2017 (CST)

  • Enemy sensor strength, resolution, and type seems to have no effect on chance to be jammed.
  • Jams happen throughout cycle. So number of ships jammed isn't as important as number of ships jammed over time.

eg. 5 ships continuously jammed over 10 seconds or 12 ships continuously jammed for only 4.16 seconds.

  • For 31 rats targeting user, 68% of the time 2 to 8 are jammed at any given point in cycle and 95% of the time, 0 to 11 are jammed at any given point in cycle.
  • Overall, it seems no matter how many targeting, about 11% to 33% will be jammed continuously for cycle

Evidence/Data

It should be noted test results aren’t likely to be shared, in order for those to maintain a tactical advantage.

Calculations from Test MH1 to MH10

31 rats from Mordus Headhunter L4

58 printscreens. 10 cycles.

User targeted nothing. Waited for all red.

Yellowboxes included with red loss. Counts occur only when TSB timer circle active.

Jam Average: 5.05

Jam Median: 5 (16.1%)

Standard Deviation: 3.18

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 12

If I understand standard deviation 68% of the time 2 to 8 are jammed (1.82 to 8.18) and 95% of the time, 0 to 11 are jammed

-print screens not posted because too many

This was done pre-Retribution with -50% scan res and 12sec cycle

.....................................

L4 mordus hunter room 1 only initial agro (8 rats)

nothing targeted. print screen only when TSB circle timer active

TSB set to autorepeat off. waited for all 8 to become red again before reactivating

40 print screens. 8 rats

average 0.125

median 0

standard deviation 0.404

max 2, min 0

L4 mordus hunter room 2

51 rats (had to kill a few so all fit on overview for print screen)

nothing targeted. print screen only when TSB circle timer active

TSB set to autorepeat off. waited for all 8 to become red again before reactivating

34 print screens (quite a few screens had the blinking during off, so difficult to differentiate)

average 7.8

median 10

standard deviation 4.938

max 15, min 0

This was done pre-Retribution with -50% scan res and 12sec cycle

Using the AE (4 screen shots) and the all Mordus Hunter print screens with the trend tool of a spreadsheet...

if 100 targeting, 11 to 31 (about 11% to 32%) will be jammed continuously for cycle

if 150 targeting, 17 to 48 (about 12% to 32%) will be jammed continuously for cycle

if 200 targeting, 24 to 65 (about 12% to 33%) will be jammed continuously for cycle

if 250 targeting, 30 to 82 (about 12% to 33%) will be jammed continuously for cycle

  • so it seems no matter how many targeting, about 11% to 33% will be jammed continuously for cycle

This was done pre-Retribution with -50% scan res and 12sec cycle

Proposed Testing/Questions of Curiosity

Sisi Mass Test Performance

Do opponents lose lock on just the ship using the mod or are the opponents unable to lock anything at all?

Confirm: low sensor strength ships (eg. frigates) more likely to be affected?

Would a sensor booster with a resolution script be effective in preventing host ship from jamming itself?

Aggression Mechanics

Solo: causes no aggression

In corp, not in fleet: ???

In corp, in fleet: ???

Out of corp, not in fleet: ???

Out of corp, in fleet: ???


Hypothesis

1- (targeting ship’s sensor strength / total of all ship’s sensor strength) + magic = chance to jam targeting ship

since sensor strength doesn't seem to matter...

number of ships * magic + target breaker skill = chance to jam targeting ship

no magic, just between 11% and 33% jammed
