I am a player currently in a Wormhole Corp with a static C4, my SP is just reaching 4million and i want to start clearing some of those sites. I am mainly a Caldari Missile Pilot and was looking at the raven. Is it possible to solo C4's with a Raven? And what would be my fitting? I have looked over numerous fittings on Battleclinic but i haven't really seen any of them that stand out to me. |

A raven will not really be able to clear sites solo. You'd need a to or we'll fit and we'll flown faction/to cruiser to solo a c4. With only 4 million sp under your belt, your best bet is to fly with another person or two to clear out sites. |

This will only end poorly if done solo. |

At your current SP you should be taking a harder look at c1-c3 sites rather than c4. If you have a decent group supporting you, then c4 sites could be possible. |

With all the warping out you will do you will most likely make more ISK clearing and mining gas sites (which isn't bad ISK to be honest, I did this when I first started in wormholes).
Of course you can always pimp it like crazy and it could work. Until someone comes in and ganks you.
Best bet for true solo C4s is Marauder or a super tanky T3 (Tengu). Maybe a Rattlesnake? All of which sound out of reach for a 4 million SP pilot. -Bl+¦d

Trust me on this, a Raven will only get beat to hell and back in c4 sites. I only ran one, and my Tengu buddies were none too happy about my constant shield broadcasts. Can you hear them? They are calling to us. It is beautiful. http://thegreattichim.wordpress.com/ |

A Raven with good skills can run C4 sites, but it needs to be cap injected and requires some support to keep running. But it can effectively solo C4 sites.

The only t1 ship I can see solo in c4 sites might be a pimped out rattlesnake.
Edit: actually carriers are t1 so yes, those too |

you could probably pimp fit just about any above bc class t1 ship and be able to run c4 sites,you are probably better off getting a domi and a friend in a domi and running them with him though. |

With the right fit, a snipe Moros, Rev, or Nag would definitely work.
Edit: Just fit one stab you can warp around the anomaly when the sleepers get under your guns. |

Don't try to solo C4 anoms in t1 subcaps. It's horrible ISK/H.

Then for C3's which t1 ship would be the fastest? (If i can't do C4's i might as well do C3's) I have been doing C3's in a drake and was thinking of moving up to the raven, would this be a smart choice? |

You can use any T1 BS to solo C4 if you have scimi as well. |

Man, I giggled.
Anyway. As it has been said, you should probably not try this solo, unless you have a BS or two you are willing to toss out the window. This is as nice as I get. Best quote ever https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4137165#post4137165 |

Its not solo if you have a scimi.
I used a command ship for C3s very effectively for a long time, I imagine the navy battlecruisers might also perform very well.

Drake worked well for me. A cap injected raven with good cruise skills might work these days but would be iffy plus alot of management. So might a navy scorpion. However most of my c3 and c4 running has been done to good effect with dominix's. t2 sentry drones and put some RR in the highs and you're good to go. |

As Saede mentioned, we have a member who has found a nice Raven fit that requires a cap booster. He's ran the numbers and figured out he can make his cargo's supply of charges last a whole site, so in between sites he warps to a safe to collect more charges and goes back to running sites. As has been said already though, it is not as efficient in terms of ISK/h as compared to C3 anoms. It also requires very excellent skills to handle, and by far the Rattlesnake will be the more comfortable choice. I am also a human, straggling between the present world... and our future. I am a regulator, a coordinator, one who is meant to guide the way.

I find it hard to achieve in a T1 Battleship, but the rattlesnake should be best suited for the job. But I still think you need to pimp it out abit and bring alot of cap boosters, you'd want to run your X-large SB ALOT.
Edit: You got 4 million SP? Forget the idea, you won't be soloing C4s for a while. |
