Missions & Complexes

Looking for some advise in what implants and hard-wires to get for my rattlesnake to make my mission running just a little better and safer.

all and any help would be great

Thanks in advance.

Hg crystals i would imagine.

If your running active tank then probably all high grade crystal set 1-5 implants. The Crystal Omega is your call if you want to have Rapid Launch or the Omega. (The crystal Omega runs about 1B) That's if you are running an active tank, if you want to run the missions faster, and you are using a passive tank then I suggest maybe using High grade ascendancy set since it'll make your warp faster, therefore making your mission times shorter in the end by tacking off a few seconds for every warp which will add up to hours and days eventually of time saved.

Other than that for a rattlesnake at least that's about the two different sets that I personally would use for missions.

For the rest of the implants I would use:

If your not using the Omega for slot 6,

Zainou 'Snapshot' Cruise Missiles CM-605
Zainou 'Deadeye' Missile Bombardment MB-705
Zainou 'Deadeye' Guided Missile Precision GP-805
Zainou 'Deadeye' Target Navigation Prediction TN-905
Zainou 'Deadeye' Rapid Launch RL-1005

Those is what I would use if I was running a rattle

I run missions in missile boats, and for my purposes increasing damage application is far more important than increasing tank.

For a Rattlesnake, your tank can be a micro jumpdrive. This works well against basically all opponents except Guristas who love long range missiles. On the other hand brawling with torpedoes and gecko requires a significant investment in active tanking. So although brawling fits might have the potential to be high DPS, you end up sacrificing a lot of your potential for necessary tank.

So MJD, cruise missiles, sentry drones. Throw in a target painter or two, a signal amplifier or sensor booster is also a good idea, use the missile implants and drone modules. You should get about 1400 DPS, though you are still flying a missile boat so remember to count volleys and switch targets while the killing blow is still in flight.
