so far i use
h:
4 siege, 2 cruise, 2 hnos
m:
100mn AB, large sboost II, 3 hardener / amp, cap recharger
l:
wcs, 3 mixed power stuff, ballistic control
did ok with it, until i ran into a "Supreme Drone Parasite". Orbiting it it would'nt hit me, but I spend at last 100 torps on it, doing ~ 130 damage to armor O_o (resistances of 75% or so on everything).
what I ask for now is a) general input for a npc setup and b) any ideas how to overcome this rogue drone
thx

Last time I used raven I had this setup:
HI
6 cruise launchers, 2 425mm railguns
MED
XL shield booster, 2 hardners (after npc dmg), 1 cap booster with 800s,shield boost amp,and in the 6th slot u can use cap recharger or sensor booster or whatever
LOW
1 ballistic control, 4 pdu II
I dont know how much power uget and so but u might be able to fit a 100mn mwd if u use 250mm rails instead of the 425mm.
To kill rouge drones u should use smartbombs. hope this will help ya

unfortunately it has 75% resistance on everything in armor, so type of torp dont matter *g*.
i noticed 1 wcs helps get away from NPC scramblers, saved me not only once huntin 0.0 rats in my scorp =)

Also consider dropping the cap charger for a heavy cap booster with 800 charges, you should be able to carry one reload too and that can give you a lot more short-term survivablity. Ideal for missions but not for long NPCing sessions.
As for the supreme drone, give him a taste of his own medicine and use drones on him, he'll go down a lot faster

How do I set up my Raven?
Just take out any warp scramblers and replace them with something useful.

Any man's death diminishes me, as I am involved in mankinde; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee. |

hm smartbombs? i can't see it's usefullness ... they do less damage than a tropedo and use way more cap to activate. maybe you missed i talk about a rogue drone here, not a player controlled one =)

I managed to the take the Supreme Drone Parasite using
5 Siege Luanchers, 1 Cruise Launcher, 2 Heavy Nos
1 Sensor Booster, 4 Shield Hardners, 1 Large Shield Booster 2
3 Power Diagnostics and 2 Ballistic Controls
And it doesnt matter what ammo or guns you use against the parasite it has 77.5% armour resistance to all types of damage.
This was the level 4 mission that has taken me the longest to complete and was the most profitable. 3 hours i think and i ran desperatly low on ammo at the end after getting a large cargo hold frig come top me up.

Nos, shouldn't be used against NPCs because they have unlimited cap AFAIK. For small ships NPCs is better to fit smart bombs.

I run the following:
6 Cruise, 2 Heavy NOS
2 Large Shield Extender II's, Large Shield Booster II, EM Ward, Thermal Ward, 100mn AB II
CPU, 2 Ballistic Controls, 2 PDU II's
I might switch out one or two of the cruise with seige to run torps once I get better skills to fit them without going over my power grid or cpu allowances. Hopefully I can dump the CPU and put a PDU or BC in there. 28 more days to Caldari Battleship 5!

Think of a HNos on an NPC as an orbiting battery, rather than a means to kill them
