Thanks for the answers but I've decided ratting is not my thing. Thanks a lot for your input though, much appreciatedAttention

50 million an hour is quite easy to do ratting. A drake is fine for this purpose, depending on where you will be hunting you just adjust the shield mods. If you can use T2 missle launchers even better, Drake gets a 10% bonus to kinetic damage so if you happen to be in an area with rats that suffer from kinetic even better. Throw 3 ballistic damage mods in low and perhaps a hydralic bay thruster/ calcification rig in rigging and go hunting Smile Doesnt hurt to put a warp core stab in low if you are unsure about locals.

It depends on which region will you be ratting in (i.e. which NPC faction rats), and obviously on whether you're ratting in friendly sov, or ninja-running in hostile space.

Either way, if you're looking for something that's low cost and low effort, you can't go very wrong with the AFKtar, for which there is a decent guide over at Ripard Teg's blog. You can reasonably downgrade to a Navy Vexor while you train TII ship skills.
