It is about as good as Raven without sentries - although with heavies getting a speed boost in upcoming patch in few days these might be somewhat useful after the Kronos patch. It can still carry quite a number of medium drone waves without sentries. Alternative is to use T1 suicide sentries - just kick em out and leave them to die letting them do (hopefully) some damage in the process.
What I like to use is: 6x Cruise ii 1x small gatling pulse 1x drone control range 1x propulsion 1x drone tracking (or navigation, i guess) and some tank 4x cn bcu 3x drone damage amp ii 2x rigors 1x missile speed
The point of small pulse is to act as a drone trigger (I'm sometimes using more than one of these in a group with other guys drones slaved to one guy) - you can squeeze in also some republic AC, but its mostly on paper dps which is hard to apply without tracing computers and enchanchers. Getting away with split weapon system is kinda okish with dual weapons but using all three systems .. well .. that is tricky, at best. Cheaper faction propulsion can be good idea to conserve a bit of cap, if you are needing it for something (i.e, have regular shield booster or something). Dont be afraid to use ancilliary stuff (if you can afford it cpu wise) or cap injector (instead of drone tracking/navigation) if needed.
I personally prefer to use Bouncer II's for PvE. They have more or less same range as your non-sebo'd locking range.
As pointed out this thing is damn tight on CPU, especially if you start fitting missile rigs. As there is not much options to "save CPU" other than tank if you already go for navy BCU's then that is where I save usually. I'm getting away with pretty basic and non-blingy buffer setup most of the time (navy hulls have quite healthy buffer compared to base BS hulls) but ofc if you end up in trouble then you are in trouble. Another alternative is as posted above, dropping something for a CPU mod and/or going bling-bling in tank. I personally do not believe in Gist stuff as I have yet to see a rat I can tank to death. Navy damage specific hardeners are pretty ok bang-for-buck on the other hand to save some CPU without skyrocketing the setup price. I would suggest keeping the cost of the fitted modules within approx 1 bil ballpark to not paint a target on your hull. I see mission-runners getting ganked on regular basis in mission hubs. Usually Tengus but if you bling a BS hull enough it would be also worth the effort.
Take it with grain of salt. It has been a long while since I have flown only a single ship in a L4 mission. But it works okish for me so far.
