I know that Rigors & Flares didn't affect HAMs. Has that changed since the recent update?

Nothing has changed for the rigs, Flares affect HAMs like before, Rigors don't.

The only change is about the Guided Missile Precision skills, it now affects all missiles (before it was only the non-guided ones)

Aah, OK. So rig wise for a HAM Drake what would be best? Bay Loading Accelerator and 2 Flares?

Hum, not really. For PVP, the best is 2x CDFE and 1xEM reinforcer. For PVE, 3x Purgers.
The way rigs work, you have more benefit in increasing your tank than your damage ;)

Excellent, thanks.

Gank over tank IMHO. So 2 x T2 Rigors & 1 x T2 Flare should do the trick.
