Are 2 ravens enough to run c4 sites

Im thinking active tanks with remote cap injection so they can help each others tank.

Do I expect to just get jammed and that will fail miserably?

say something like

cruiser launchers
large energy transfer array
med sheild or cap transfer or something else

XL shield booster
booster amp
3x hardners
cap recharger

2x pdu
3x BCU

CCCx3

Try to get your EHP rated tank to 1500 HP/S. Then I'd suggest 2x large energy transfers in your spare highs to generate bonus energy.

If you can't get the tank that high you may have issues with specific sites (2nd wave Frontier Barracks, 2nd wave Sleeper Information Sanctum) but will probably be okay in the other sites (Frontier Command Post and Integrated Terminus).

They will struggle (die) with the 4x safeguard wave on Unsecured Frontier Digital Nexus - they put out more than 2k dps IIRC and scram/neut. Some of the other 4x BS waves will put them under a lot of pressure to.

No sleepers jam the problem will be with neuts and on a couple of waves just tanking the raw dps which will be fully applied on BS hulls. Some people stick a basi in with 2x BS (usually marauders or faction BS) to make it work but I've not done the maths/looked at fits to see if that works with 2x raven.

With siege links and cap transfers you might be able to do all but the hardest mags/radars with 2x raven in the hope of tanking long enough they switch targets before the damage gets too much - would almost definitely work on the easier anoms but I'd be wary how well it would work on the harder sites.

It's difficult to get even a cap-stable 1k dps tank on 2 Ravens, so you will really struggle on alot of the sites and with scrams etc it will probably end in you losing your Ravens, 2 tengus can do it because of RR bonus, excellent resist profile, same number of mids and cruiser speed/sig. The dps is really anemic and is partially reliant on drones so it can get really ugly, if you threw a logi in the mix it would probably be able to do it.

The only way to tank 1500 dps with ravens is when you invest a nice billion to 2 billion into your tank alone. That excludes the ship and others mods + ammo you want on it, certainly when best would be having a Double Booster! Then I bet you're cheaper off with a few RR Tengu's.

So, if you want to do a few C4 sites with several Billion on the field, go ahead, I'm not stopping you, it will only be Beautiful on the Killboard and those with loot, will have small on their Face if they're lucky in the loot drops.

The best way to run 2x Ravens in a C4 is to officer fit them. Then give me a call and I'll watch your back while you farm.

Don't ban me, bro!
