What ships do people use with success now?
Recons used to be a good shout but not sure with the changes to npcs etc.

T3's, often cloaky, are still popular with some pilots.
Depends also on what part of space you're talking about. For example, WH space versus Low Sec.

Lowsec resident here. My typical target is thus a T1 (faction) cruiser. I will use every ship at my disposal. A few favourites are Stabber Fleet Issue, Wolf, and Cynabal. |

Also for those ratting or missioning in Battleships. A scram is must now since they are most likely fitted with MJD.

I always wondered, how much of a PITA is it to retrain sub systems skills after losing a ship? |

I rat in my PVP Ishkur when in lowsec while I'm waiting for stuff to kill. It handles things just fine. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita.

One level from a sub system at random, it's nothing to worry about, certainly not enough to put one off PvP. I'd say you'v likely "lost" more sp by forgetting to update your skills. "CAKE CANNOT HOLD UP TO BEING A CHARACTER DAMNIT."

Ignoring the fact that he said solo hunting ratters, not dual boxing;
This is a terrible way to do it. Ignoring the fact that you can d-scan or just warp straight to havens and forsaken hubs, and mining anoms, if you bring in a prober first, you're giving them enough warning time to get out.
Tengu Proteus Scythe fleet issue
are probably the three most popular and effective I see these days for SOLO work deep into enemy ratting space. |

Ralph's hilarious killboard aside (and big props, by the way, to keep going after that. I'd have gotten discouraged, you have a good attitude.), a good way to hunt ratters is with a T3. They have the golden combination of cloaks and interdiction nullification that enables you get a decently sized ship out into ratting territory.
Otherwise you're talking frigates of some kind.
An alternative is to cloak in their systems and screw with them that way, instead of outright killing them. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Just look at my death Bs setups for the real deal on ratting BS. Raven, Navy scorp, Pirate typhoon are the best alround ai cracking ships for all types and cost the less to lose. |

They're 1x multiplier skills; it's just a slap on the wrist. |

The PVE 'meta' has change in null.
Not that fighters can be enhanced by drone mods, you see a LOT more carriers ratting in upgraded systems. That's potentially good for small gangs and hot drop teams, less so for the solo sub cap guy looking to kill ratters. Your better chance for solo ratter kills is in renter space (and Deklein :) ).

Do you not lose a V-level skill though? They're 1x multiplier skills; it's just a slap on the wrist. Exactly this, 3-4ish days depending on your mapping/implants. And admit it, wev all forgot the skill Que for at least as long once or twice

cheers I used a condor to kill one of these: http://web.ccpgamescdn.com/newssystem/media/63963/1/EVE_Online_Retribution_Body_Drone.png
If a condor can go ratting, [almost] anything can go ratting. Once upon a time the Golem had a Raven hull and it looked good. Then it transformed into a plataduck. The end. |

I think the OP needs to clarify whether they want a ship to go ratting in or a ship to kill people that are ratting. |
