In MWO, it is being used typically as a counter ECM method (note that in every other game in this universe, ECM trumps BAP/CAP/CLAP, but ECM isn't nearly as powerful as it is in MWO so it needed counters). A scouting mech is generally one with some decent speed and maneuverability. Dakka, dakka, dakka. my favourite mechs are: ecm fafnir with 4x rac2. Engage enemy ECM mech within their ECM bubble, swap to counter ECM, and hold lock while a team mate rains LRMs.
