* A max gank Drake has a painfully smaller tank than the Raven due to CPU issues. It can't fit a big enough shield booster, never mind a cap booster, which is worrisome against Sansha and Blood Raiders.
I was with you on the first sentence, but then you said shield boosted drake. Then I loled. Never fit a shield booster to a drake ever please. You will make Jesus cry.
im not sure anymore, who's troll who's not :S, but an active drake will outperform a buffer fit in most solo/small gang pvp... 600hp/2.7secpmds with good resists, is enuf to tank any BC long enuf to kill it :P
So there :P

Because nobody uses neuts in PvP. . Adapt and overcome or become a monkey on an evolution poster.

Yeah I watched my stab at an active tank Drake go pop in lowsec durring leave. Tengu and a Loki took me down in 20 mins.... If I had been psasive the nuet on the Tengu wouldn't have killed my tank.... (I accidentally burnt out all my launchers lol) and help could have saved me.
btw: my mission drake uses Shield Purger II's x3 and I full aggro 90% of lvl 4's BS's pop fast and I insta pop cruisers. frigs take 2-3 volleys usually.

Is Drake even capable of breakin tank of vengeance end boss?
Yes mate, I use T1 missiles in Navy launchers. Need to fit a MWD and a webber. Kill everything else, MWD to Rachen Mysuna, web the mofo and let rip. Usually takes the full 45 volleys but it's do-able and easy.

Originally by: Theodoric Darkwind There is a difference between "can do" level 4s, and doing them decently.
A drake can do L4s, but is painfully slow at it since it takes forever for a drake to kill BS rats.
To do L4s in a drake you have to basically fit it as a flying tank, which leaves no room for stuff like BCS.
A BS with T2 tank and decent support skills but only T1 guns/missiles will do L4s far more efficiently than a drake.
Oh and yes Guristas now suck even more and Motsu is still a wretched hive of scum and villany. Glad I mission in places where I dont get Gurista missions.
Why on earth would you rig a drake to tank like 1k DPS+ at the cost of your BCUs?

The drake is by far the best ship for running lvl4s, however to maximize its potential you need to make sure you have your launchers ungrouped and only use FOF missiles.

Drake is now useless for level 4 missions since the Guristas jamming bug came about.
I use a Navy Scorp as it is a supertanked Drake and very flexible with those 8 mid slots.
You need to train Battleships as they are the all-round most effective and most flexible ships for doing all level 4s. While Tengus and other strategic cruisers do high DPS, they are not flexible when it comes to requiring a a different fit while still retaining high DPS. Battleships retain that flexibility.

Originally by: stoicfaux Max Gank Drake: 523 DPS with Scourge Fury. 416 with T1 Scourge. 426 DPS with Fury EM missiles. 333 DPS with T1 EM missiles.
Standard Gank Raven: 616 DPS with Fury. 481 with T1 missiles.
Wow .. Raven less DPS than a Tengu?
