you can do it with prophecy 7x caldari navy shield power relay x4 republic fleet large shield extenders and 3x t2 medium core defense field purgers and maybe +4 shield capacity implant and with decent skills you can hit 840 tshield regen per second . dps would be kinda **** but you could survive evrything

Even the best equipped Rattlesnake has to carefully pick and choose which C4 sites it runs. You certainly can't face tank most C4 sites with such a fit. C4s START at 700DPS and go up to 2100DPS, and the Snake will have to absorb every bit of that if you're in range due to its low speed and large sig. Using long range cruise missiles and sentry drones would be a good approach but then you don't need the link augmenter and you DO need an MJD or MWD along with some range mods.

That fit would be fine in a C3 (though still not optimal), but not in a C4 solo. From an isk/hr standpoint, a C3 is almost always better solo because you can run all of those sites. But if you insist on doing a C4, then rebuild it with a sniper fit and trade hp/s for range. Or rebuild it to face tank at least 1000DPS with an active tank and choose your combat sites carefully.

Let Rykki be your guide.

I threw together 2 active builds for you - I am not a fan of on site module swaping. You could argue switching over some modules etc, but concept will work.
One is for C4 combat sites and the other is for C3 combat sites.

But if you take them into action, then C3 one will come out as a winner for ISK/h (damage application is way better and faster). There might be cases where you want to turn off shield booster on C3 setup and reactivate it after fewish tens seconds...

Remember to carry blue pills.

If your skills are not on par with cap recharge / defense wise, then stick with C3 and swap out web / omni link modules for more tank or more cap how they are needed.
Remember you can add medium crystal alpha, beta and gamma to gain some more EHP/s (they are pretty cheap)

And here is another one for C3 with RHML. This might be faster compared to the Cruise missile version for C3...

But I can tell you this setup (or very close one) is tested with one of my friends and those 2 ships made around 500-600 M/h in C3 (+ he was alt salvaging).

Solo C4s are a pain and the isk per hour can fall to the same level as simply running C3 sites. The rats in the C4 are much farther out and using a solo snake puts your drones at high risk. The agro thst you get from the rats on your drones slows the pace way down. It can be done solo, but without duel boxing with some logi chain to keep the agro off the drones it's going to be a nasty way to make isk. Good luck

You don't need faction Power Relay or faction Shield Extender: T2 will do. Switch one Shield Recharger for Adaptive Invulnerability Field (only Integrated Terminus will dry you empty). Use A-type Thermal Dissipation Amplifier (also bring c-type Kinetic Deflection Amplifier). Use depot to switch between power relays and DDA / BCS. Also have in cargo: Large Micro Jump Drive, 2x Target Painters, 3x DDA, 3x BCS, cloak, heavy neut, heavy cap booster and few navy 800s.
You will soon known which waves aggro drones and which don't. In those that do, put painter on a cruiser to keep aggro on you. I advice to start on Sisi.
You will be able to run all anoms except Sleeper Information Sanctum (which is rare spawn). You can also run Evacuation Center and Trinary Hub.
Don't forget to roll connections Roll

Why the Power Relay? If I'm not mistaken they Nerf your booster.

The fit i use has a large Pith-X and it gets 60 tank less but has 40K more EHP and better Regen (4C/s extra vs 0.5C/s), Yours does have a TP which is nice.

Yes, you are apsolutely right. You will lose about 60 EHP/s by going Power relay (those factioin ones go for 30M from time to time). You can swap it out into Flux Coil. This way you will be less stable (if you forget to turn off booster at some point) and have more tank you do not need in C3 combat sites anyway.

As far as tank buffer goes - I would say you do not need that extra 40k in C3. So if you want to get even more damage application and still keep MJD, you can try this:

Runs you 590M including one Gecko.
770 EHP/s, ~+4C/s, 40k Shield, 4.5k GJ cap. MJD and 2 damage application modules in mid. Pick Sentry type as you feel most comfort with.

I would say Rattlesnake is quite versatile ship.

Use a mobile Depot and bring a mjd, low slot dps mods, utility mid slots to swap around with.
