Just on a side note, and not to detract from the topic, but why exactly would someone select to use a Rattler over an SNI in missioning, anyway? The only benefit I could possibly see would be the huge drone bay, and that would only be useful in L4's with sick drone skills. Maybe someone could edjumacate me. :)

With my skills the SNI is ~590DPS (but ~3700 Alpha) and hands-on, Rattlesnake is ~710DPS (drones only) and pretty much AFK. Tank is a no issue for both.

Sometimes you need to focus your attention elsewhere, so you reach for the Rattlesnake.

use 2 x-large ancil boosters and you can have a 4.5k ish burst tank (with crystal set) or a 2.25k sustained tank until you run out of cap booster which you shouldn't. (sustained tank would be use 1 booster till it reloads then use other while the first reloads). tank stats is an omni tank with passive hardners + 1 invuln. Welcome to a ship that can now ACTIVE tank LVL5 missions solo and for the total cost of about 400mil at most.

[Scorpion Navy Issue, LVL5]

6x Cruise Missile Launcher II (Mjolnir Fury Cruise Missile)
Heavy Energy Neutralizer II

2x X-Large Ancillary Shield Booster (Navy Cap Booster 400)
2x EM Ward Amplifier II
Thermic Dissipation Amplifier II
Kinetic Deflection Amplifier II
Explosive Deflection Amplifier II
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II

3x Ballistic Control System II
Damage Control II

2x Large Processor Overclocking Unit I
Large Warhead Flare Catalyst I

Stats(all lvl5 and low grade crystal set):
-576dps (not counting drones)
-4,035dps omni tank (half it for the amount of 1 booster running)
-3,487dps tank with invuln off (that's 1.7k dps tank with 1 booster which is plenty for most lvl5s)

Description:

With this fit + LG crystal set you can tank all lvl5s with an omni tank (if you know what your doing, only most if you don't). dps is mediocre but for cruise missiles you can't expect much more. Now the reason there is a invuln + heavy nuet is for if you get caught outside the mission site and need to fight for your life!! Also in some lvl5 missions you will have some cap so you can use the invuln as well. the main concern when running lvl5 missions is getting ganked by pirates, while the awesome omni tank of this fit probably won't save you it will atleast let you put up one hell of a fight!


p.s. I didn't put drones in this fit. Use whatever drones you prefer but have atleast 1 flight of light drones to help kill frigates. Oh and did I mention this is cheap?
