I wanted to pose this question to the community who know much more than I do about just about everything Eve.
If you were to set up a Raven and a Megathron to work in conjunction with each other to do lvl 4 missions together how would you do it.
Working with each one's strengths to compliment each other as well as possible.
Any input is appreciated.
Thank you.

You'll probably want the raven to tank, then have the mega fit for max damage with rails, or if the mission is close enough blasters. ----

what's your budget?
*this is a really relevant question.
and are you fixed on those two ships?.
For this Mega w/ dual webber, big AM blaster, no tank and a couple of target painters / maybe an AB. sit at 9.5k from Raven which is aggroing everything blasting stuff.
Gist tanked Raven/CNR and mega has shield transfer bots if you get stuck. Fact is, the raven or a domi can solo tank pretty much anything solo.
evemail me ingame if you want some more advice

Best combo for ease of use, most reduction of risk is in my opinion a Raven and a Domi.
Set the Domi up as a logistics ship, 4 large shield transfers up high (plus whatever else you like). Fill the med slots with cap recharger 1's. Fill the low slots with cap relay 1's. Very cheap fully insurable.
All the domi has to do is stay within transfer range of the Raven. Raven then can run 5 hardeners (and a booster just in case) and can concentrate on the killing while the domi focuses on keeping him alive.
Domi pilot has to be careful in some missions as second ship sometimes attracts aggro, however once you know which the Raven can delibrately draw that aggro before the Domi comes in.
Domi can carr lots of drone's to help when all aggro has been drawn by the Raven.

Raven - Torpedoes - 3 Painters - 2 hardeners - 1 shield booster - Ballistic Control Units
Dominix - 2 Large Remote Shield running forever - drones for once the accro is set - logistics drones for emergency
this is the afk solo dual account pwning setup.

I am so glad I asked this question here. You have given me a whole new prospective on this.
As far as budget goes I am a miner and am planning on building both ships and selling ore/minerals fo finance the equipment.
Right now I am running lvl 2/3 in a Ferox.
I definitely like the idea of a Dominix. For one it is cheaper And I was thinking of building one of those eventually as a low sec tank/miner for the better minerals.
This way it could serve dual purpose.
Really excellent stuff here. Thanks much everyone.

i have done wingman in L4 missions with a Ferox and my friend in a Mega. he did most of the damage i soaked most of it up. worked extremely well against Guristas and Angels as i can break 90% explosive and my Kinetic is also very high(BC4 helps greatly).

Raven tank with torps, Mega setup with rails and heavy shield drones to assist with tanking the raven.

slightly off topic - but does the Domis drone damage bonus apply to the logisic drones rpr amount?

No, it only applies to pew-pew drones.

The Vulture is a better tank with its extra medslot (and slightly better resists). Possibly the best non-capital tank in EVE, in fact. --------------------- Originally by: Herko Kerghans Nik = win. Period.

Personally I use a raven and a domi.
On the raven I have 6x Siege II and 2x 125mm II, best named painter (spells PWNAGE w/ the first letter of the words) x5 webber, x-large c5-l booster, 2x invulner II, 1x 18% cap charger, 3 PDU II and 2 BCS II. All of that fits nicely with WU 5, AWU 4, electronics and engineerin 5. Using t1 torps it pwns hard, plus I carry a complement of medium and light drones, and the frig guns to quickly off those little pests on angel missions where drones = dead if you launch them.
On the domi I have 3x large sheild transfer array, 1x large remote armor repair, 2x tractor beams, 5x f-b10 (17.25%) cap chargers, 1x LAR II, 1x EANM II and 5x cap relays. Plus 10 ogre II and 5 heavy shield maintenance bots. Now with this setup and rediculous skills that I geared my alt for (as an example... 6.7m in drones) maxed cap skills and shield emission systems V, allows me to run either 3 transfers or 2 transfers + the armor rep indefinatly. This setup is capable of boosting (with the drones for bad situations) 1335 every 5 seconds (IIRC). Combine that with the onboard booster on the raven and you can tank the entire spawn of any mission area. That and the domi's crap armor tank is enough to launch the ogre IIs to fight back anything that happens to be unhappy with it. Thus no need to warp.
I've been using this duo for almost 8 months now and have only lost one domi due to trial and error and not using the crap armor tank in the past, I have yet to lose the raven.
