I'd like to see someone just doing a mission, managing the tank and such. I haven't found anything on youtube of it.

It'd be like watching paint dry! Even a Tengu would be boring and that'd be speed tanking.

I'd just like to see how people can tank and how their tank holds up.

I dont care about it being fun or exciting, i'm watching it to see just the basic operation and how people's tanks hold up in realtime

It took me less than 30 seconds to find reams of videos of ravens running L4s. However, if you are so stupid that you can't find any, me showing you a video is not going to be of any help to you.

There are even videos that rifter runs world collide mission. However videos won't help you much unless you have same fitting/skills.
Do you have trouble running some particular mission? What are your skills and what is your fitting look like? Tell us time - how long you run that mission. You will see more answers and that answers will help you more. What's the point of watching low quality video where player cliks on hardeners, fires torps/cruise missiles and sometimes click on shield booster. It all easy - use your range and get rid of dangerous frigs (webbing, scrambling) first while they MWD to you. Use drones :)
If it is not enough ask someone to grab raven with your fit and for some moderate sum of ISK to make and record that particullar mission for you.

That show someone doing mission in Raven...I use different fit and on CNR but pretty much the same (pulse booster and manage volleys while throwing around the TP).

ROFL first think that came to mind for me too 
and at the music in that video above....seriously? 
To the OP, you might as well just ask someone how they do it instead of expecting a youtube video of it.

You should rather run some lvl 2 - 3 missions and get a feeling for doing missions and learn the basics. Watching someone in a vid and then flying your raven in there is more of a recipie for desaster. How come you start running missions from lvl 4, and not lvl 1, anyways?
Useful site for missions can be found here. check what the triggers are and manage the incoming damage through aggro.

I have seen many "strange" threads in this forum, but this is a new low (or maybe high )..
So, explain to me how a video of a Raven doing lvl 4 is gonna help you? Are you gonna make a list like this: 0m 08s - Target frigatte 1 0m 09s - Target frigatte 2 0m 23s - Turn left 15 degrees 0m 27s - Get hit by a blastervolley 0m 28s - shields down to 92% Wouldnt u be better of asking for loadouts, skillplans and tips as to how to handle specific missions..? I cant for the life of me see how a video can help u..
But hey... enlighten me

Edited by: Pantload on 12/01/2010 17:27:44 Dandrenn:
Couple questions:
1) Did you have trouble with a specific mission or just nervous about taking your new Raven into an L4 for the first time?
2) Are you coming from flying a Drake and concerned about the more "active" style of managing the Raven as compared to it?
3) Got any buddies with whom to partner up and do some missions while you are getting used to your ship? This is a tremendous help actually.
4) Are you more concerned with actively managing your tank or your cap or both? Shooting things is pretty easy, of course, and I'm sure you're already familiar with that part.
5) Is your new Raven insured ( Platinum preferably )? Will that cover most of your costs in case of unexpected ship loss? If so, do feel free to be bold and just have a go at things.
Think about some of these questions...answer them in thread if you like...You won't need a video in order to figure out your new Raven, I guarantee it. Someone to give you a couple pointers or even fly some missions with you until your confidence comes up would be the best thing.
Cheers, PL

in terms of running a mission the only real difference is that the cnr has an extra launcher. should be fine just watching those vids.

Basically i have some pretty good shield skills, look at eve survival for what to aggro and what not to, and it seems in most missions too many things just aggro me from the beginning which causes my shields to get cut through like butter. Even with a xl booster running it sometimes isn't enough, and i've even tried cap booster loadouts and would run out of cap boosters by the time half the mission would be done it seems. That's why i wanted to see others do it because it sounds like it's a piece of cake to do alot of these missions in a raven... but not for myself.

I only have 3 rat specific resistance amps, and and XL shield booster + amp. The only capacitor mod I use is a cap flux coil. EFT says my cap lasts 1 minute 12 seconds.
Many missions I don't need to boost my shields at all. The ones I do, I usually boost my shields when they are at 50% and stop when my cap is at 50%. If the dps is really high, I'll boost my shields when they get to around 30%, and stop when my cap is around 30%.
Can you post your fit we would be able to help you better.

Whats your resists/shield recharge time on your ravens on these missions? I know they are mission specific (hardeners) but im curious.
Tip: moving reduces incoming dps a great deal (try clicking around in space, or orbiting the warp in beacon)
Tip: tanks don't get rats, all the shield skills in the world won't help you if you can't kill off the incoming dps

Here is what I would change:
-Arby launchers. You should be able to afford a full rack after 1 or 2 missions.
-Instead of invulns, fit rat specific hardeners according to eve survival. They will give you much higher resists and don't take nearly as much cap.
-A 4th BCS will give you more dps.
-Drop the CCC and add a 3rd rigor. The cap booster is all you should need for capacitor help.
Your dps is abysmal though. As far as skills go, get cruise missiles and caldari BS to IV asap, and rapid launch and warhead upgrades up to IV after that. Then work on getting them up to V. The increased dps on your part means less incoming dps you need to tank.

I appreciate the reply. Yeah the dps kinda sucks atm. I have Caldari BS at 3, same with cruise missles. I'll get those up along with warhead upgrades to 4. That dps calculation was of course with drones. The arbalest launchers cost about 15 mill per launcher in sinq laison from what i've seen... is jita cheaper?

Yes, 15m per laucnher is insane! Look here for prices in other regions: http://eve-central.com/home/quicklook.html?typeid=16519

15m per launcher sounds like arby heavies. arby cruise were like 2mil when I last bought some (hmm they look to be up a bit at least according to the prices tool in eft).
and getting skills up will help a lot.

You are going to start making serious isk soon with L4s, so its a good idea to start investing in implants and faction gear that will help with your low skills.
For implants, look at zainou snapshot ZMUs and deadeye ZMMs to increase your rate of fire and damage per missile. Deadeye ZMA and ZMS will help hitting smaller ships too. The 3% implants should be affordable. Eventually you'll want to move up to the 5%s.
As far as faction gear goes, CN cruise lauchers and ballistic control systems will add about 100 dps to your set up.
Then of course, there is the most important faction gear of all for a mission runner, the ship. The Raven Navy Issue has 50% more shields than a stock raven, which give your tank a lot more leeway. It also has a 7th launcher which gives you another 75dps or so. Prices have really dropped too. You can find one for about 400M in contracts.
