Edited by: Lady Rona on 02/05/2005 08:14:13 High : 6x siege launcher 2x Whatever fits suggest energy vamps for interceptors on pvp
Med : 1 C5-Xlarge 2x shieldamp 1 em 1 therm hardner further you can fit additional hardner or a warpdisruptor on pvp to keep peeps from running.
Low : Power diagnostics tech 2
This i consider a allround killer and only good setup on raven further more get all shield and energy related skills to level 5 and BS level 5 if you wanna fly the raven its a powerhouse if you got the skills otherwise your just PREY.

Its deffinitely not the only good setup on a raven. A little imagination can go a long way in EVE :)

He's talking about Shield Hardeners there, not the armor ones =)

My Raven has been setup as follows for months now:
6 x Best Seige (currently got ZW-4100s) 2 x Dual Heavy Modulated beam lasers (had to strip out the pulses due to recent nerf...)
100MN AB II Large shield repairer II Sensor booster II 3 x Best capacitor rechargers (currently Eutetics - tech II ones too expensive...)
1 x Best ballistic control (currently got a Cross-Linked Bolt Array) 2 x PDU II or RCU II to fit above, depending on skill/exact grid used 2 Best overdrives (currently got Local Hulls, price now at a reasonable level)
This setup has been my agent-running standard for months, and it works very well. Since Xmas, when the missions were tuned down in lethality by CCP, I've only lost one ship. My tactic is based on speed and distance - the above ship with my skills and augments will hit ~590m/s - and so obviously when I warp in, I take down the tackling Interceptors first, before engaging the BS threats from long range.
If you're going to use this setup, I recommend you do it pretty quickly. When/if the proposed missile nerfs go in, my new 'setup' for a Raven will be:
Go to reprocessing plant, say 'Hi', hit recycle button. Learn other race's BS/weapon skills.

I fight Guristas almost exclusively, and I like Juggernauts best, for their kinetic damage. I have started off with Molijnirs first, to break the shield, but I've now settled on all kinetic for simplicity and ease of manufacture.
Course, after the missile nerf goes in, you might as well fire 'magic moonbeam' torpedoes, for all the good it will do you...

I love the way you run through every thread lamenting changes you havent yet experienced. Get on the test server and test. Make meaningful recommendations.

Yes, try it out on test before you go predicting doom.
ATM, its still being worked on and missiles are still too weak towards smaller ships but its not too bad. The increased missile speeds as well as the new missile specialization skills are actually pretty cool.

Here is my dilemma.
I can use level 4 agents. Raven should work for level 4 missions, that is what everyone seems to be saying. Well my level 4 agents are AMARR. So that means that most of the enemies i would be fighting would be npc that do EM and Thermal damage. Is it possible for me to do these missions with a raven? Any setups would be helpful. Would armor tanking be a much better choice than shield? Any setups and all help would be appreciated. I really hope it is possible.  i have seen that PDU tech II seems to be a must for shield tanks, so i have begun to train for them lol.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Raven Bane II - The Defender Missile.
In the Apoc scenario, and many others for that matter. If the Apoc pilot has the foresight to pack a rocket launcher loaded with defenders. He can easily turn your ship into a 130mil ISK coffin.

Why you don't change the LSB2 with XLSB2? The price is low now (20m). Great setup btw. All this cap is always usefull :)

After a substantial time away from the game, I've decided to come back to play eve once again. When I reactivated my account, I was stunned at the number of eve mails I had in my inbox asking for all sorts of help on the Raven (and the odd few asking for help on other ships..). I'm sort of shocked at this kind of interest at a post I just hammered out on note pad while I was bored at work. I've finally spell checked the document and attempted to edit it until I realized just what type of writing style I had used that day.. 
I'm afraid I can't really be an "expert" on a ship I've spent so long away from, so replies to your various eve mails probably won't happen. I'm still relearning the game (learning about all the updates to it, actually) and trying to get readjusted. Part of that will undoubtedly be the colossal bull**** involved in finding a corp, and mining my ass off to get back some of the things I gave away before I left.
I'd just like to say thank you to all the people who have sent me messages and /bow to the people who have kept this thread going. As soon as I'm back in the swing of things I will attempt to continue my work as a tinkerer of bizarre and frequently bunk ship designs.
I'm sure the cloners are all rubbing their hands in anticipation of scraping biomass from the windshield after a few "experiments"...

Well, the Raven's setups are soon going to be changed rather drastically with the new missile changes coming in a week or two. Check the sticky at the top and swing by the test server to see what I mean. So, we're all going to need to experiment with how to set up our Ravens, and this time, we'll need to fit for different scenarios due to the way the new missiles work.
It'll be very interesting to see. Ravens with sets of Cruise launchers and Target Painters to kill frigates, more traditional Torpedo Ravens for BS engagements, gank Ravens featuring hardners, the new improved extenders, painters, and lots of BCS; a lot of new possibilities are opening up. I, for one, look forward to it.

This is the exact setup i have been trying to achieve (using the XLSB2), but it appears to be completely impossible ..... I cant even fit 5 t2 PDs, i have to use a CPU and 4 t2 PDS and this is without ANY NOS, so 2 empty top slots!! How the hell have YOU setup like this? There is nowhere near enough CPU to fit these components ...

Of course
Named siege are the only real way to achieve more than 6 siege in high, without the use of a co-processor. I cant be sure, but i would have thought 2 t2 large boosters would use more cap/grid than a single xl t2 + amp.
My win all setup for next few weeks:
6 'Arbalest Siege 1 Heavy Diminishing Nos
XL T2 booster Gistii Shield boost amp Dread Gurista Photon hardener Dread Gurista Thermal Barrier 2 Cap recharger II
1 Cap power relay 2 Caldari Navy Ballistics 2 Power Diag II
With the above setup, tanking is real easy for almost any spawn. of course the setup cost around 1 billion+ isk, but just goes to show how much reduction in grid/cpu can be achieved using named mods over t2. Plus dealing 650+ damage per torp, with 8.92 rate of fire, even battleships drop real fast, so major tanking isnt too necessary outside of extravaganza missions.
Of course, new missile changes will make my setup worthless, and require me to spend hundreds of millions in named/faction target painters/webbers etc, so should be interesting. ATM i find Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas much more enjoyable. At least i know they wont press the restart button on GTA, and make me start as a noob again.

My setup is differnet then these I have seen here I run a shield tank setup 6 Siege launchers 2 Heavy Nos 1 T2 Large Shield Booster 1 Shield Booster Amp 3 T2 Large Extenders 1 Named EM Hardener 2 T2 PDU's 1 RCU 1 2 Cap Rechargers
With this setup I have a shield strength of 12356 and all my resistances are over 50% except explosive and that can be changed by replacing the EM hardner with a named Multi to boost all resistances by 32% With the PDU's and Cap recharges I have a cap recharge rate of 378 and can run the shield booster and hardener with out loosing any cap comes in hand in longer fights the only draw back is you can't keep them there and will run in the end but your ship survives. Yes it takes some skills trained in fields not normaly trained for a Raven pilot but works in the end if anyone has any ideas to improve this setup please let me know Kill'em all and let god sort them out |

Well peeps have been saying all we need to do id add a target painter and 2 webbers for intys and fit more BCUs, mix our launchers and some L hybrids and we'll be juuuuust fine. So I would suggest:
Highs: 1x Siege, 1xCruise, 1xHeavy, 1xassault, 1xstandard, 1xrocket, 2x425 rails
Med: 1x XL sb, 1x shield amp., 3x hardeners, 3xfixed paral.link (due to no more PDUs) or better, 2xwebbers, 1xscrambler, 1x target painter, 1x Quad Lif
Lows: 5x BCU
Well it needs a bit of refining but it should be as good as pre-patch...

Am I missing something or is that 13 midslots?
