L4 missions w/ blasters == big mistake. You'll be crawling around in deadspace without a MWD, and you'll end up agressing the wrong group by proximity as you head towards your target group. You'll take huge amounts of punishment slowly making your way to optimal, wheras a ranged ship is just going to be able to reach out and touch the enemy. I'm not saying you have to go raven, but you certainly should not go blaster-nix.

i can imagine you'll get anilated if you try ranged npc's close maybe.
+ you'll struggle to fit MWD and a full rack of blasters and a tank unless your skills are high
even if you do the MWD is useless and a abs isnt enough to catch most .
then you have to have cap to tank which fitting a mwd on a dommy leaves you with almost none.
Try fitting something like this (i'm not sure if the pulses work post patch tho)
5 dual heavy pulse
cap racharge
2 large reps 3 hardners (what ever else you need to fit)
carry loads of drones target spesific.
this is a ok npc setup the guns are just an aid to your drones they do all the hard work for you make sure the npc dont shoot them.
used to take on sansha spawns this way sure the dead space rats arnt too dificult either.

You are all wrong and should try things out before talking about them. ;[ The blasterdom is great because it can tank really well with 7 low slots and 5 meds (lots of room for cap rechargers as well as lots of hardeners / relays), deliver an awesome amount of damage and, like the Raven, can kill smaller ships without sacrificing its main armament (like f.ex. an Apoc has to sacrifice a gun for an SB). Use a T2 AB (or faction / officer AB, if you can get it - it's well worth it as speed is key), a web (enables you to kill cruisers with L blasters), cap recharge stuff, 2 medium reps and 3-4 hardeners and more cap recharge stuff / damage mods in the remaining low slots.
For best results, at the beginning, concentrate both drones and guns on one battleship to melt it frighteningly quickly (for me, I get around 570 damage per sec from guns + drones - and that's with a full and very effective tank running); when the battleships are gone, splat the cruisers on your own while drones kill the frigs.
That said, nothing, I repeat, nothing comes close to the Raven's efficiency for L4 missions. The blasterdom, though, is in my experience the best alternative (but really only an alternative).
