depends on the race your shooting at
but i think of something like
6x cruise
1x nos
1x tractor
1x shield booster
1x shield extender
2x 1st type of enemy dmg
2x 2nd type of enemy dmg
1x capacitor flux
1x damage control
3x bcu
and ofc drones for the smaller rats...

Your armor should not be taking damage, replace that with a bcu or a pdu.
I'd suggest looking at the ship setups thread, you setup should be the same as the mission running setup except for you should replace 1 tractor for 1 nos in case of pvp.

For reasons that have been lost in the mists of time all caldari ships are designed by two people. One does the left hand side and the other does the right.
And they never meet.

How does one spawn the best ships? Never heard of that yet.

The damage controll actually gives your shields extra resists. (read it's stats from 7,5% to 11,5% I believe)

Yeah, I second this, I'm curious to know too. I mean, I have noticed that the rats tend to get tougher the longer you're there, but after a while, the cycle starts over again and you get weaker rats for a while.
If there's a way to get the tougher/higher bounty rats easier... let us know!

I think he means "farming" the rats.
When you're ratting in a system with a nice number of belts, you completely kill of the spawn you don't deem worthy. (frigs+cruisers) and you don't kill the spawns that have nice big fat ships completely.
So basicly if you find a nice 3BS+3frig spawn, you kill of the BS and leave at least 1 frigate alive. After a while the BS of that spawn will "respawn" and you can kill it again. The spawns you completely kill, will respawn at random, so you have a chance of them respawning as a BS group aswell.
So potentially you end up with a system full of BS spawns.
This is the prefered tactic of allot of people, since chaining isn't really an option anymore.

Hit ctrl+alt+I+W combo with left hand, wave your right hand up and down and sing "there's no place like home, there's no place like home" backwards, a nice officer spawn will appear.

When you use "chaining" in this context, are you talking about killing the BSs but waiting around in that same belt for them to respawn? Why is this not an option anymore - did they increase the respawn timer from how it was before?

Yes I ment that, and it indeed changed.
If you chain these days, the spawns dissapear at random times, which means you ussually only get to kill them twice or maybe three times. Farming is much more efficient, because you won't be waiting for them to respawn but are actually killing stuff.
