Missions & Complexes

See the button next to the forum index? Ask that.

most of the fits I have searched up are people with very low SP fitting a raven to do 4s with another person, I was looking for more of a perfect lvl 4 soloing raven fit assuming SP was not an issue

Try something like this:

6x t2 cruise missile launcher

1x t2 x-large shield booster
2x t2 shield boost amplifier
2x t1 sensor booster with targeting range scripts
1x large micro jump drive
1x (whatever you want) cap recharge or shield resist

1x t2 co-processor
4x t2 ballistic control system (cn bcs would be better)

while i agree with the statement above, i will still advise you to skip the raven and go for the navy raven instead. seeing as how you seem to have the ISK, spending 1bil more probably won't hurt you. here is a cheap lvl4 mission raven setup:

it's a little tight on CPU, use implants or upgrade the tank to green or blue if you can't fit it with your skills.

If the conjecture above is correct, that it's a bought character and you dont really know what you're doing....

Buy a navy scorpion. FAR harder to lose. FAR harder, plays all but the same way. Same skills apply.

And if you dont like it, or grow out of it...sell it. Nothing of value was lost. However I wager if you waltz into a level 4 without any idea of what's going on in a raven, something of value will almost certainly be lost

The "ideal" setup is probably based on the active-tanked Navy Raven, because of its ability to put out high-volume, focused damage, but you need both in-game support skills and out-of-game tactical skills to make it work. The latter's very important, and it doesn't get passed along through the Character Bazaar.

The base Raven is inherently less than ideal, so it's probably better to fit it out with a heavier-than-optimal tank until you're comfortable with how it flies and fights. Your shield booster depends on how you're more comfortable tanking; use a Large if you intend to run it for longer, or an X-Large if you're comfortable running it in short bursts. Rigs for the base Raven should probably be either 3 Rigors or 2 Rigors/1 Flare, to focus missile damage. And you'll almost definitely need a target painter.

If skills are no issue, there's much better ships to do missions in than a raven (faction or otherwise) cause it's slow.

That said, figure out what mission you're doing and make sure you can tank 500-800 dps on whatever damage types those rats do. then pile everything else into dps and speed.

Contrary to popular belief you do NOT need bling to do level 4 missions. A proper t2 tank will handle anything level 4s can throw at you for long enough for you to kill the high dps ships. X-Type mods on a Raven is just asking to get ganked. Prioritize targets based on their hp/dps ratio, killing the glass cannons first. Your best tank is your guns.

In places where you often need to travel to other systems to do your mission, or fly significant distances between gates inside the mission, a Tengu or Nighthawk might be a better choice.
