PLEASE NOTE THIS FIT IS FOR GURISTAS FORSAKEN HUBS ONLY

As per subject im making a torp raven for my friend to do guristas forsaken hubs with me in my Talos.

Will the fit i posted below be able to hit the elite cruisers for full damage? (incase he wishes to solo if im not online)

I'm not that knowledgeable about missiles and the formula i found is confusing.

[Raven, ratting t2]

6x Torpedo Launcher II (Scourge Rage Torpedo)

Kinetic Deflection Field II
Thermic Dissipation Field II
Large Shield Booster II
100MN Microwarpdrive II
2x Target Painter II

4x Ballistic Control System II
Co-Processor II

3x Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I

4x Hammerhead II
1x Ogre II

Tank isnt much of an issue due to running with me as ships die so fast you barely need to tank anything.

Would appreciate any input and help with the fit, thanks.

Depends on the guided missiles presision also bring faction torpedo's, their explosion radius and velocity is better.

depending on the distance the spawns spawn, your tank will be to low.

for this particulair hub this will probably do, though I usualy go or Cruise against Gurista's the abbility to switch to Auto target missiles and the range usualy win it over the extra damage.

I'm pretty sure it's not. Can you cite figures?

I tried doing a similar fit with dual box ravens and it was horrible. Even sitting at the spawn point the ranges opened up too fast to clear out all of them before needing to move off center. And once the dire cruisers started the tanks started failing while closing back to respawn. My arty mael and a tanky drake+ shield transfer still did them faster and without any struggles despite 300dps lower on paper.

Even a torp golem with 3 target painters and it's explosion velocity and TP bonuses doesn't hit elite cruisers for any where near full damage; even with max skills.

Torp raven is a poor choice if you're up against anything sub BC size.

Not realy sure which figures you want to see but here goes.

Guided Missiles Precision became active for unguided missiles as per retribution 1.0 see patch notes.

Base Value's Rage Torps Post Retribution.

Dam: 608
Range: 7500
Expl. Vel: 61
Expl rad: 774

Javelin

Dam: 405
Range: 13500
Expl. Vel: 71
Expl Rad: 450


Faction (Caldari Navy)

Dam: 517
Range: 9000
Expl. Vel: 71
Expl Rad: 450


Basicly if you want to shoot things smaller than a a battleship and a Drake :) , use faction or Javelin or even t1
