Hey all, want to get a raven, whether its a CNR or plain, but I keep getting put off by comments I read that cruise is a waste of time?
Is this the case? I wanting the raven for lv4 missions, don't want a tengu though,
What are your thoughts on cruise, is it still worthwhile or what about torps?
Thanks for commenting

Wrong forum but......

For level 4's I have used exclusively ravens, navy ravens or navy scorps (which are basically well tanked ravens).

This raven is what I fly in low sec (drones to taste). I do not swap my invulns out for specific hardeners (I fly against angels mostly) and the co-processor means you can fit it at AWU4 I believe (I have awu 5 and am 3% over power without it. Most think 3BCS and a signal amp is worse than 4 BCS. I believe not as the dps increase in tiny and importantly volleys to kill any of the targets I shoot doesn't change.
The rigs and TP mean HACs/cruisers and battlecruiser NPC's DIAF.

In high sec you can upgrade what you want but tbh the missions don't need it.

There is only one valid way of doing this:

Get a Tengu.

Want to do missions faster? Get a Tengu.
Want to make more ISK per hour? Get a Tengu.
Want to run LVL4's with less hassle, no tanking worries and no messing around with drones that get killed by the NPC's time after time after time? Get a Tengu.


See a pattern emerging here?

Yes thats right....get a Tengu.
