The question isn't how often you run those mechs but how often do you run ECM on those mechs.

Might be a bit of a odd question since I know some people always run the same setups on their mechs. But basically I'm just wondering if anybody here runs a ECM capable mech but doesn't use ECM most of the time. Just kind of wondering because I see people running various setups on their mechs but I don't seem to ever see anybody running a ECM capable mech without having ECM on it but maybe I'm just not catching it.

*Note- the polls let you make multiple choices because you're limited to 3 questions per topic and theres 5 ECM mechs. Please only choose once per mech (the poll has been modified to add the option of don't own mech). Also don't lower your % if you didn't run ECM because you bought a mech and couldn't afford ECM right after.

Edit: It would be nice if you state why you don't always run ECM on those mechs, especially if you say you run it less than 50%.

EDIT: changed the poll to add some options and since it seems like some people might of voted for 0-10% because they didn't own a mech but had to make a choice in all 3 polls to make any vote. 5th option is now don't own mech and nobody had voted for the 5th option before the change was made. So the middle 2 percents are a little bigger than the rest. I added the option of saying that you voted on mechs that you didn't own before, so if you re-vote you can click those if you want but you don't have to since you can change your vote.

Always on D DC and 3L, only ECM mechs I own.

Note: I had to vote in all categories. That could throw off your results either way.

Woops, not sure how I made that mistake since I checked which ones have ECM and own a 2D :)

But its fixed now.

If the Mech is capable of carrying ECM i will use it 100% of the time.

Are the people who said that they sometimes don't run ECM on those mechs trolling?

Only a moron leaves ECM off a mech that can carry it. It's worth more than 2 medium lasers or even a single large laser! Pathetic, but it's true.

So does anybody that voted 0-10% want to say why they don't run ECM? Or was that just people voting on mechs they didn't own?

I have a feeling that anyone that selected anything less than 100% is trolling. As has been said it is too good not to have on your mech. I know that I will never take it off.

It's worth more per weight and slots than any other item in the game. If the mech can carry it, anything else is a waste of that space.

Trolls will be trolls.

Not sure if the OP is the troll or the people who voted for anything other than 100%.
It would be like putting an AC or a Missile launcher on your mech and not loading any ammo.

OOOH look at my big scary AC20, but I have no ammo.
