Say skills, isk and gank risk is no concern, what's the BEST of the best for the Navy Raven? |

Gank risk will always be a concern if you're trying to pimp your CNR and announce it all over the forums. |

The way you worded your question, I'm not sure that there is a corrrect answer.
For example an all officer fit CNR might have the best figures on paper, but actually fielding such a fit is anything but a good idea for obvious reasons. And "the best" would be quite different with regard to what you want to fly against. For L4 missions shield hardeners vary with npc type. And a PvE build would get you killed in PvP fast (actually I would suggest to stay away from PvP with a CNR, especially a faction fit CNR - such a ship is just an invitation to everyone to shot you to pad their killboards). Besides this there are also different fitting philosophies: with or without AB/MWD? With or without target painters? Pulsed shield tank or perma boosted shield tank? Etc. And your decision will affect what you need in other places ... like capacitator rigs for a perma boosted shield tank or rigor rigs if you don't have a TP etc. In short, there are several good CNR fits but it depends on what you want it for and also on your playstyle.

For PVE it works just fine with 3 x CN BCS's and a Pith C XL shield booster. Rest can be T2. Oh PLEASE!!! CCP Fozzie Can I haz a Navy moa....... |

9 minutes of cap should be plenty to kill off the current pocket. You'll want to tweak the hardeners/SBAs if you go up against Sansha/Amarr NPCs. Against Guristas or Serps, you may want to add ECCM or a sensor booster in place of one SBA.

Here's what I used to use, I feel it's cost effective, no money wasted really, you could throw more at it but it won't really improve your mission time by much. |

Tank isn't really an issue if you fit it right, but yeah, you need an AB for some missions with gatecrawls/mission item pickups or you'll have to slowboat there which will ruin your mission time. These missions are a minority though, most can be done by just sitting in one place and tanking and ganking. |

It's a great fit! The major difference in what I use is that,I have 2 T2 rigor rigs, and 1 T1 flare. Is the damage application better with your rig setup?

Tsukino Stareine wrote:CN cruise launchers are a decent increase to dps Nope. You only get 2 dps more per launcher when compared to t2 launchers. So with 7 launchers you get 14 more dps.
On the other hand, CN bcs is a great upgrade. Life is short and dinner time is chancy Eat dessert first! |

ive taken your standard CNR and replaced the faction xl-booster with an XL ancillary shield booster, and the AB with a micro-jump drive. with an effective range of 150km, its a simple task to mjd out 100km and pop npcs well out of their effective range. kill em all. |

Ok, now I see we have all kinds of rigor/flare setups here. Let's talk about which has the best damage application.
1. 2 rigor T1 + 1 rigor T2 2. 2 rigor T2 + 1 flare T1 3. 1 rigor T2 + 1 rigor T1 + 1 flare T2
2xRigor IIs and one t1 flare should be best. I wouldn't sweat it too much.

Officer fit missioning BSs aren't a good goal, more like something to avoid at all. It will just get you ganked while you'll have little to no performance improvement out of it.
Keep in mind that PvE boat is an investment and if all the revenue goes into improving it, it kinda kills entire reason to have one (unless it's a goal on its own because you can). Remember that it will take forever for overblinged boat to pay itself off when compared to something like "T2 + faction damage mods" fit.
Also, I love how everyone came up with PvE fits even though OP said "solo", which usually implies... Well, something people don't really do in Navy Ravens 
Although it seems that PvE fit was exaclty what OP meant.
P.S. "ISK is no concern" in OP and then "faction fits are pipe dream" in the next post? Erm, excuse me? |

Regardless of ISK, the fit I'd use for a CNR is:
CN BCU CN BCU CN BCU CN BCU Damage Control II
Pith A-Type Large Shield Booster Gist A-Type Resist Gist A-Type Resist RF Target Painter RF Target Painter Imperial Navy Heavy Capacitor Booster
CMII & T2 Ammo x 7 Drone Link II
T1 Flare T2 Rigor T2 Rigor
Hobgoblin II x 5
You could spend more ISK, but why? You won't see the cost reflected in performance. This fit is pretty much max DPS. You could swap out the DCII for a DDA on a per mission basis, otherwise pretty sweet IMHO. Plus +ºa change, plus c'est la m+¬me chose |

With T2 ammo I think Option #2 is best.

I see some Micro Jump Drive fitted on some fits, I haven't tried one, but I don't see why you'd use one? It jumps you a fixed 100km right? So it's no use for gate crawling which is the only reason I fit a prop on my Raven. Surely jumping further away from the battlefield is pointless as then your TPs are in deep falloff and volley counting is a nightmare, it can't be to help tanking as a regular setup would tank it fine just sitting there, and you're not saving any slots with the MJD either. On top of all that you then have to MJD back and slowboat to the next gate?
Is there something huge I'm missing here? |

MJD allows you to exclusively fit gank and not worry about tank since it propels you away from most rats' optimals |

"Say" That was the word I used before I posted the question, implying that IF isk etc was no concern. But sadly, it is. xD |

A regular fitted Raven already has max gank, you can maybe fit another TP (which will be in deep falloff and thus not work most of the time) but that's it, not to mention volley counting/waiting for them to hit means you'll actually lose some dps.
On gunboats you'll have to operate with longer range ammo which will reduce your damage meaning that any extra gank modules you fit will be cancelled out by having to use lower damage ammo (or drones).
I guess its good for noobs with bad cap/tank skills but I've never had any problems tanking just sitting there and blowing everything up. |

*Cringe*
Please open EFT and calculate what each additional CN BCS is adding to your dps.
Running L4s the tank required is limited. Further, running L4s efficiently means blitzing through them.
You really dont require 2 TPs and 3 Rigors to kill every single frigate in existence, unless your going Full Ret@rd and killing every single rat in a L4.
Save yourself some ISK, buy and blitz L4s in a 500m Tengu. Profit.
Fits posted in this thread with zero prop mods are especially cringeworthy. |
