I know that minmatar gunnery system is the best one in PvE so lest put them aside for now.

As a new player to EvE my question is:
"Which system is better (laser or hybrid) for Lv4 Mission and why?"

Im not interested in missiles so plz dont write to use them :)

Depends where you're running missions. In Amarr space where rats are weak to EM and Thermal, lasers will probably be best. If you're running missions in Caldari or Gallente space where rats are weak to Thermal and Kinetic, hybrids will be better than lasers.

Almost all rats have a secondary thermal resist hole so hybrids are a good all-round choice. They also use less cap then lasers which could be important to you active tank

So the next Q now is:
Rails and Blasters which is better to use?

Rails are probably better in the short run, as you get far more range from them and can live with less tank just by flying further away than rats can hit you. Once you get into T2 hulls though, blasters can be better, but they are more skill intensive and really need you to move around much more in missions, which might get old in battleships really quickly.

Try them both on frigates and destroyers to get the feel for what you like more and run with it.

Autocannons + Falloff bonus are best.
