As far as I'm aware, BAP doesn't really do anything if you have ECM. I guess if your ECM was destroyed you'd still have the BAP, but with an XL engine you won't be left in that situation.

Narc isn't as bad as it used to be but its still wasted tonnage if your team has no LRM boats and the beacons only last a short time (assuming they aren't destroyed by damage).

TAG I have been using on my 3l, actually quite nice for spotting.

yea i know its a shame TAG is so much more superior to NARC

Well at least with BAP and ECM you can pick up shutdown mechs
but yes this is a folly build to make it what it shoulda been like


Take out BAP and heatsink and go 150.2 KPH with the first build

Stick in a Standard Engine WITH BAP and ECM

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...5cbc7604fe3cfe7

• 101.8 KPH
  
• TAG , BAP , ECM , NARC

As far as I know they didn't remove the target scan time and other benefits to BAP when they added the ECM breaker to it.

IIRC BAP increases max scan range
and
decreases scan time to see mechs damage and loadout.

Target Decay Info
Target Info Gathering
