Does the the BAP stack vs ECM?

Not exactly sure what you're asking, but it negates only 1:1.

Your ECM jamming disables BAP's ability to fight ECM. Your ECM counter mode disables your BAP's ability to fight ECM. Essentially the only two things you get from BAP with ECM is the ability to lock onto powered down mechs within x distance, and the extended sensor range. PGI used the fluff that ECM drains too much power. The truth of the matter is allowing it would basically permit one ECM-equipped mech with BAP be able to counter 2 ECM-equipped mechs, which is a balancing concern.

Fun fact: If your ECM gets disabled or destroyed entirely, your BAP gets full power and you can then use it to counter ECM.

no no no....


If Im in a cat fight VS 2 other ecm Mechs.

My bap will counter one ECM automaticly rather its on or off. But not the other. If I have 2 baps will each BAP counter each of the ECM's? In otherwords can you stack BAP's?

Since you don't have ECM, then yes Bap will counter one.

You can't have two baps. But if your teammate had BAP, too, then yes.

Note: There's a bug in smurfy and other online mechlabs that allow you to place two or more BAPs. In MWO you can only have one BAP, that's it.
