It depends if the gate is 10km or so I can use drones while I move to it still. My stills are tailors to the RS. Over 9mil in Drones, over 12mil in missiles, over 5mil in shield, L5 Caldari and Gallante battleship. Just long the way thos same skills work for the Tengu and Golem as well. Only thing you need to get is the Tengu subsystems to level 5, when take no time at all, and Golem just get Marauder. And if you have gates 10km or more, a BS with a AB or MWD is still VERY slow, and unless the gate is over 80km, which they rarely ae MJDs aren't needed either.

imo very little reason to put a sentry drone rig on a rattlesnake. It has plenty of lowslots. If you need more drone damage fit another DDA, and use the rig slot for whatever you gave up to fit that extra dda.


more than 3 DDA's is a waste of slot, regardless of how many slots are available. One sentry drone rig is mandatory, imho.


if a 4th DDA is a waste of a lowslot, then 3 DDAs and a damage rig is DEFINITELY a waste of a rig slot, since it sucks up 300 calibration (if t2, limiting the rest of your rig choices), gives less damage than a 4th DDA, doesn't do anything for non-sentry drones, hurts your CPU, and uses up a rigslot which is generally more versatile than a lowslot (if occasionally less powerful depending on the use).


ok


300 calibration for between 24-32dps? That rig is an awfully wasted slot, many better options.

been using a rattle for the better part of a month now, with NO missles on it, (i know i know) my drone skills are higher than average, and next to no missle skills yet, and i can say this, even with my subpar tanking ability, it dosnt matter for lvl 4's since the advent of the mjd.

NPC disruptors wont bother you, webs cant do anything significant to you. the only missions you may have some trouble with is guristas, and even then the rattle has high natural resists for that. simply jump out 100km drop sentrys and lol as the npc struggle to catch you, by the time they do, simply do it again
