So... in a competitive advantage game you want others to tell you what the actual best is and receive an honest answer?

Are you sure you are logged into Eve online?!?!?!RollTwistedUgh

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

The problem with this game is a pilot can't ask for an honest opinion because pilots like you offer no help what so ever. Mate if you can't put a constructive opinion forward then don't bother.

I want to hear from fellow carrier pilots that care to share their experiences flying their ships not ass hats that think they are funny with snide remarks that aren't worthy of the topic.

have a nice day :)

Vexor Navy Issue.

For 1/20 of the cost of any Capital Carrier I can have about 1/2 the isk efficiency. Still capable of making over 250 Mil for a casual login per evening running Havens and Forsaken Hubs.

I know you want an answer about which PvE Cap Carrier, but seriously... If you're not flying a Cap for PvP combat, then you shouldn't be flying Cap.

I wouldn't really be ratting in a carrier if I were you. There are groups that specialise in roaming around space, trying to kill ratting carriers. What you want to do to combat them is to sit in a supercarrier. It has a staggering amount of hitpoints, and better offensive capabilities. That means that you're going to be able to live longer in a case of emergency. A defensive fleet would have more time to reach you and help. Alternatively, you'd last long enough to kill off tackle and jump out.

As for the hull itself, you would want a Hel. It's bonus to fighter velocity would ensure that you get the dankest ticks possible.

Good luck OP, and don't let anyone talk you out of ratting in a supercarrier. If someone does try, it's likely that the person in question is ratting in one himself and is trying to stimy competition.
