Note: IS only: 2x ECM Skill Nodes max out at 40% ECM Target Range Reduction (ie: 20% per ECM Skill Node), on top of base value of IS base 60% ECM.
Note: Clan only: max 93% ECM jamming (ie: max 93% = 16.5% skill node + 16.5% skill node + 60% base value)
Note: Clan only: 2x ECM Skill Nodes max out at 33% ECM Target Range Reduction (ie: 16.5% per ECM Skill Node), on top of base value of Clan base 60% ECM.

There is an issue currently with the mech cards that are being used for the guide. The mech cards can only be generated using MechDB 1.0, however MechDB 1.0 is not updated to the current cauldron patch, so many builds do not have the correct ammo values or DPS calculations.

MechDB 2.0 is still under development but has been updated to the current patch, however there is no bot to generate new mech cards from MechDB 2.0 yet.

We're sorry for the inconvenience, and we hope to eventually have this fixed.

I was able to work around this issue by opening the link in MechDB 1.0, click save and share, copy the client link url, open MechDB 2.0, then import the build from the client link url in the clipboard. Lots of clicking, but it seems to work.

Thanks guys, for the great work you put into this guide.

I noticed the URL for the UM-K9 build with 1x UAC5 + 4x ERML is incorrect. The link takes one to the UM-K9 build w/ UAC20.
