I just recently got myself a Kronos and it does seem to perform rather nicely. Although i havent run that many missions with it yet... This setup can project its damage very well with nearly any range. Im not so sure about the rigs though, might change them later. Also, using tracking speed script is recommended, i've noticed big difference in hit quality. There seems to be a small gap around 15km-20km where tracking is bit problem, overheating the web works but, meh...

I think the problem that Kronos has is that its being compared to other marauders/ships using different class weapon systems
Paladin/Mare = uses mainly tachyons which are oversize, tier4 weapon system. I simply love my Nightmare. Tachyons simply are the king: superior range, damage and tracking for their size
Golem/Vargur = uses short range weapon systems which naturally put out high dps, especially in EFT... Golem has issues with torp travel time/range and explo radius/velocity and Vargur is most of its time firing on falloff. But people just ignore these because their eft dps is over 1k
Now that Kronos is using tier3, long range weapons, its EFT dps doesnt climb as high as others. But it doesnt have same issues that Vargur and Golem have, since it can quite nicely shoot at any range. Also, the thermal/kinetic is not that bad for missioning.
If comparing Kronos and Vindicator, Kronos has T2 resistances/bonuses, 40km tractor and reduced ammo consumption which make it much better missioning ship.
