Umm all you have to do is check the market mate... they were on the market until the new patch in early Jan. The modules and the BPO were removed without even being put in the patch notes of the early Jan patch.
Every single Gal and Min player needs to face facts... no one is going to fix blasters or arty... They spent all their efforts in RMR imrpoving the raven, and when they realized they has released a module that will actually help Gal players they had to quietly remove it without saying a word.
Raven now has low slot resistance modules (plus low slot shield recharge rate modules)
They increased heavy missile DPS massivly
They increased torps and cruises abilites to hit smaller targets
The tech 2 missiles have DPS that is out of this world against any size target
The only effective way to deal with a raven is ECM... which of course the raven is the most resistance BS to that as well.
The raven was the most powerful BS before RMR... instead of brining the other races up to par they simply improved the raven.
I think everyone knows that they are spending their time now creating modules and stats for the raven that will allow it to be the only BS to solo lvl 5 missions (even though the other BS have serious problems with lvl 4).

560 DPS... what did you rub your Domi with Cheeta blood? I mean seriously... lets make up numbers to prove our point. You could have just said that the Raven only gets 95 DPS with T2 torps.
About the heavy missile DPS no the Caracel is not overpowered at all... the Cerberus has crazy DPS now from 200km. It stings like a Zealot from 5x the range, NOS dosen't turn it off, and it is harder to jam.

Pict1on before RMR you were right. There were alot of very effective ways to deal with the raven. It couldn't hit small ships with torps (like the other races large weapons) and most people went with a 3 cruise/3 seige setup. So it's DPS wasn't that high.
In RMR they changed torps so they now insta pwn even interceptors, massivly increased the ravens tank (with damage controls). Now raven pilots can fit 6x seige launchers putting its DPS through the roof.
CCP also made things worse but not releasing the anti-balistic defelction screens and not fixing defenders (making them auto fire cause of the newer missile speeds, making them more able to hit missles, etc).
The facts are that a raven can sit at gates/stations and be pounded by the guns until their agro wears off well still dealing 700DPS (to large ships). Can the Apoc do that will steal dealing massive damage?
To the Caldari people who posted in this thread... seriously name one non-captial ship/config that can take out a seige tank raven without using ECM. Seriously name one?
To make things even more fun why don't you try and think of a gank squad that could take out a raven without taking any losses, without using ECM or Sensor Damps.
Let me guess you are going to make up stories and say a bunch of frigs... oh my poor raven can't hit them (for more then 100 damage per shot)! We attacked 2 ravens a couple days ago with a full gank squad of 15 players. We lost all 7 T2 frig tacklers in a matter of seconds and they warped off, the only reason we didn't loose any BSs is because we had 2 scrops that jamed them up pretty quickly.

lol Arimai knows exactly who killed the frigs :).
The Sin... serioulsy you have no idea what you are talking about. A raven with T2 ammo can insta pwn even the smallest of targets. All those frigs were down before the scrops could get a lock and jam.
About the 100% range bonus... wow... that isn't that meaningful. All those races already had the best sniping BSs... what does it matter if I am 200km away or 100km away?
Caldari got the only T2 ammo that completly removes one of the races traditional weaknesses.
Also this has alot of do with the drone damage mods. Caldari got the most uber set of boosts ever (Raven & Cerberus)... they got the best new ships in game... (Rook & Falcon)
The only thing Gallente got in RMR was secrectly removed from the game during the early jan patch.
Now in regards to your comments about the Domi not needing the ability to damage mod. WTF, the raven can damage mod out and tank... it does both better then my Domi... WTF do you mean it would make the Domi overpowered?

Thank you for the info Tux, I was really upset that it disappeared without even being in the patch notes.
I read through them like 5 times trying to find out where it went. lol
I am glad to hear it is just bugged and not being removed completly.
