Thanks. |

Why would you use guns in a raven?
Maybe those 2 extra slots,but I personally put nosferatus in there or smartbombs perhaps,besides lasers suck up much cap for a caldari ship and dont do a lot of damage without the bonuses amarr ships have.So if you really want to put guns in a raven,lasers can work,but so can hybrids or projectiles.

Edited by: Thanit on 26/08/2004 08:35:16 If I recall right you are mostly into pve rather then pvp is it not so Father ?
In that case nosferatus aren't very usefull as they require shorter range work and will not hamper the NPC's.
You can either use medium blasters as a bit of extra frigate defense against NPC interceptors, or you can use large or medium rails to do some extra ranged damage, depending on the powergrid availiable to you. Projectiles are decent repacements for the rails, but will need mroe powergrid, lasers are not very recommendable due to fitting requirements and their high cap use.
I'd go for either 2 medium neutrons blasters or two 250mm or even 350mm rails to go with 6 siege launchers.
Missiles are a pain to haul around, but they sure do their thing well against NPC's.

Actually, you might consider Large Smartbombs, instead of guns for the Raven's extra slots.
A significant number of the fast jammer NPCs orbit within 5km, for easy smartbombing. Now, an equally significant number will orbit outside of 5km, so a Smartbomb isn't guaranteed to work, but it is certainly handy to whipe out 3x 25k isk rats in one fell swoop.

I use 4 siege and 2 cruise launchers.. in the low slot I have 250mm rails with anti-matter. I love this setup..
I can hit most frigs with the 250s unless they get real close (under 10km), if they do, i just let loose drones. ________
I'm strict Caldari
"The grass is always greener on the other side" - Maybe they're not as uber as you think?

i thought he said guns not launchers if you want to use guns go right ahead with 1400mm but no guns are really good on a raven

All,
Many thanks for your advice.
As said by Thanit, I am mainly into PVE. The reason I was looking for guns was I felt that I had two gun mounts and I felt they could have something a little better then a Large Nosferatus as most of my combat seemed to be at long range these days.
It's not as if I want to remove the launchers I presently have, just give a reasonable alternitive way of combat.
Cheers. --- ...damn, my sig was nerf'd by CCP. |

Are the smart bombs really a good idea on a raven? I may be wrong, but won't the smart bomb activation blow up your own missiles?
