How many of ya'll think that Raven's Navy Ravens and why the heck not Scorpion Navy issues could be used in the future doctrines of null alliances.

I think you meant Scorpion Ishukone watch, there are more out there than navy scorps.
Also: this is now a SOMER bashing thread.

I like this guy! He sticks to his guns!

As for raven viability, they're good so long as they can apply full DPS using painters and webs. Its all about ease of fleet use. Though I think more null t3 fleets are becoming popular for some reason.

Pssh about time they caught onto the real fun of EvE. Running armor T3s has got to be the best fleets ever.

Raven's used to be one of the best pos bashing ships in the game when their torps had those pretty effects *RIP Torp Effects*

OP is trying to subliminally plant the suggestion that large null alliances make new doctrines using those hulls so that he may cash in his LP and rake in the dough.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Cruiseravens are quite good for smallscale stuff, tank like a boss with an XL-c-type SB, and all the midslots.
Also, probably going to be even better once rapid heavy allows you to plow through gatecamps. Unlike a turret battleship, getting under your guns is rather hard.

Don't forget that typhoons (both types) are good missile BS now, maybe even better than ravens as they have better drone bay, faster, more lows. And the fleet phoon has outright damage bonuses.

I've seen some alliances roam around in Raven/Foonfleets and getting good kills with them.

Ravens are fine stop whining and tell your fc to start doing raven ops

Back when navy ravens got their first change to 8 launcher hard points i went out in one and was quite amazed on how much dps they where doing with 8 launchers.

Agreed, the RLML raven is going to be a bulldozer.

since thr rhml only takes advantage of rate of fire or damage bonus from the ships hull and not the velocity or explosion velocity bonus i would say the navy scorp would be epic for fleets.


though there have been some raven fleets going around though i think they are cruise based.
