i have a quick question .. how many of the people that use t2 cruise launchers actually fire t2 ammo ... because if you are not usig that the arby's are better from every way .. same fire rate and lower ftting requirements
Look up the launchers in-game. There is this new awesome feature called compare in-game under the contract. Tech II cruise are slightly better than DG if you use tech II ammo, if not they are in line with all the other items.
Slightly better than best named.

I am soon starting to run my very first level 4's, my setup is as follows but i need advice if it is good enough
6 Arbalest cruise launchers
1 Heavy diminishing nos
1 Small tractor ray
1 Large shield booster T2 (saving for gist a-type xlarge booster)
1 Shield boost amplifier I (working sometime to get T2 version, for now there are more important skills to get higher)
1 Cap recharger T2
3 Rat specific hardeners T1 (5% difference for T2 barely makes a difference, and getting tactical shield management IV ftl)
5x PDU T2
1x BCU I
edit: if i add one cap capacity and one cap recharge rig, it can hold forever at 50% cap.
Well, I have a slightly different setup. Offense is the best defense:
LOW:
3x BCU IIs
1x Damage Control
1x PDS II
Mid:
4x Rat specific hardern Tech II !!!
Your math is off by a lot, the 5% is not really 5% as the tankability versus the Drake clearly point out.
Two tech 1 give kinetic resists of 84.99 and 800 raw damage reduced to 120.
Two Tech 2 give kinetic resists of 87.53 and 800 raw damage reduced to 99.76
A damage reduction of almost 17%

ive been browsing alot in this tread and i must have missed it or whatever, but what is best for mission running really?
I heard torps are best for pvp but does this count for pve aswell, i've been using torps a while on my tempest and altough there damage is quite nice there awfully slow, on my temp they where just extra damage since the 1400's mostly did the job, so i didn'tmatter to much on it but since raven is all missiles i guess this could be a prob.
imo cruise would be better cause of there speed basicly, better to snipe?
Anyways im not sure on this and would like some comments from people who know more then me.
It all depends on what you are trying to achieve and how much Isk you have at hand. For the ultimate setups go with Torpedos but the tag is around 10B and you use a CNR base with full officer items.
Personally I use Tech II cruise and do ok, there are a few others who use cruise due to lack of the huge capital to move into the Uber Trop group. Cruise seems to be slightly beneficial for missions where you get a lot of smaller ships and is a LOT easier to fit than a full Damage torpedo setup!

No reason to flame Darth, fly whatever your heart desire.
Personally for missions I would never mix launchers unless some extreme desire to pop a structure without docking. Naah, even then I'd go 7x Siege launcher.
Drone aug in high-slot, no flame for that, I use the same and find it VERY handy. A few missions you gotta keep them drones in line to avoid agro where they are not supposed to go and could not without the extra range but drones are always like that.
I have never been comfortable about omni tanks for missions, always feel you better off with missions specific hardeners/aplifier.
