7x arby heavy, 1x med nos gist c-type large booster, dg boost amp, 3x rat specific hardeners, 10mn ab II 3x bcu II, 1x pds II
3x ccc rigs
With max cap skills + shield comp, runs forever, else swap 1x bcu II to 1x pds II...
And btw, this does only 20% less dps than a cruise II raven...
Kills frigs a hell of a lot faster tho ;)

I have a pretty standard passive tank setup on my drake :
Highs: - 7 heavy missile launchers Tech II
Meds: - 3 LSE Tech II - 1 Shield recharger Tech II - 2 Invulnerability fields Tech I
Lows: - 2 BCS Tech II - 1 PDS Tech II - 1 Shield power relay Tech I
Rigs: - 3 Core defense field purger Tech I
This tanks like mad and i am rather pleased with this setup, But can it be improved? the most obvious solution would be to get a couple of tech II invulnerability fields but as i only have 3,75 cpu left i would have to remove something and replace it with a less cpu intensive module.
Does anyone have a recommendation for improvements on this setup ?

hi there, i have had a drake for awhile so i'll post my lvl3 setup its a pssive tank
7x malkuth launchers(im cheap/poor) 1x tractor beam ---------- 3x rat specific hardeners (2x invuln 1x em for everything except guristas extrav and blocade, in which case i use 2x kinetic 1x thermal) 3x LSE I (no they arent even named) ---------- 2x PDS I 2x BCU I
the only named stuff on here are the launchers and i can sleep through about every lvl3 mission except the blocade and massive attack (im doin Angel extra atm) i have all the shield skills to lvl4 except management i havent trained and tactical is at lvl3
i have about 3m sp and i can seriously tank every mission without warping

Edited by: Borys on 09/02/2007 13:13:01 My Drake setup. Highs: - 5x 'Malkuth' Heavy Missile Launcher - 2x XR-3200 Heavy Missle bay
Meds: - 2x Large Shield Extender II - 1x Invurnerability Field I - 1x Invurnerability Field II - 1x Shield Recharger II - 1x 10MN Afterburner II
Lows: - 2x Power Diagnostic System II - 2x Ballistic Control System II
Rigs: - 1x Bay Loading Accelerator I
I¦m currenty doing lvl 3 mission with ease. I¦m trying to increase the DPS on this setup, but I¦m a little strapped for cash at the moment. My main problem is CPU cost, currently 625.66/630. But I haven't trained Electronics to lvl 5 so that should solve some of the problem.

I only have newbish skills (under 2mill SP) and use the following setup atm:
7 Malkuth Heavy 1 Tractor beam
2 Invulnerability hardeners 2 large shield extenders 1 medium shield extender 1 shield recharger
1 BCU 2 PDU 1 Shield power relay
all are T1 stuff, but this does all lvl 3 missions without having to warp out, including all of Angel extravaganza. Admittedly my shields got down to about 30% for a lot of that ;)
I would like more speed with an AB but the shield recharger makes a big difference.
I don't yet have a lot of dosh for mega T2 stuff, and am currently working on basic skills like shield ops etc to get all the basics up to lvl 4
I am v happy with the drake, kicks the behind of the Ferox and would seem to not be far off the abilities of a Raven, and is much much better looking.
Thinking about getting a Raven next, could anyone suggest an equally formiddable but more handsome alternative?
thanks!

This is almost identical to the setup I'm putting together, except I was considering three T2 IFs instead of the shield recharger. I haven't finished putting it together yet, but according to quickfit it should be able to take the cap hit.
The shield regen is slightly slower, but it looks like it would do better against every damage type thanks to the resists?

Purger rigs are awesome. They are the equivalent of fitting an extra SPR I but without the cap recharge hit.

I've run every L4 I've ever met with this:
7 Arbalest heavies
3 LSE 2, 3 T2 hardeners
1 PDS 2, 1 SPR, 2 BCU 2
2 purger, 1 extender rigs (non-optimal fit, rebuild will be 3 purgers)
5 T2 lights
With more SPRs, the shield regen becomes unnecessarily huge for mission running. This fit gets me about 115 dps regen on just under 20k shielding, and 3-volleys battlecruisers with middling (800 k) missile skills.

Her's my proposed setup,kind of a mix of modules but the PDS and RDU are necessary to fix my PG for all the other stuff,until I train adv weapon upgrades.As for the resistance amp's I have most of my Shield Compensation skills up to lv3 or 4 and I figured I may as well use them Drake

I m not really sure if this should go to this thread but i havent seen any other that could fit...
i ve seen tons of mission and ratting set ups for drake but no pvp setups? there is no pvp setup thread in the ship setup list as well, even though there are many for other ships
is it because drake sucks at pvp? or is it just because people didnt try it a lot until now?

Currently been using this setup:
Hi: 7x Heavy Launcher - 1x Tractor Med: 3x LSE II, 1x Invuln I, 2x Rat spec active hardeners Low: 2x PDS II, 2x Named SPR I
16k shields, 535 shield regen. I don't need to warp out on ANY missions. The only problem would be to improve the mission time. Although I own missions quickly and take little damage, it would definately be a lot faster. Add some Arby Heavies, T2 hardeners, improve my low missile skills, and if I could somehow fit some BCS II. This would own even more, and probably able to do L4's.
I cannot do bonus stages of Angel Extravaganza. Even with 90% Explosive Resist, I am STILL taking 150 dmg per torp/50 per heavy!! Which adds up quickly with all of the things in the stage.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have L4 Shield Operations and 1 PDS on my Drake and my recharge is 925. Other than power relays and PDS's how am i to lower my passive recharge? I've seen many posts with much higher recharge rate and they don't have anything else fitted except maybe one more PDS which would lower it to about 870. Just looking for what else I could do to raise my recharge rate.

Edited by: Rivona on 25/02/2007 16:19:56 Edited by: Rivona on 25/02/2007 16:19:20 Well my drake setup seems a bit different than anyone elses, so I will toss it up here and see what you think. This is the setup I use for everything, rating, mishs, pvp, all. Its sort of a hybrid active/passive tank. Working on the skills to get tech II in everything now. I'm just a casual player so go easy on me. :p
High
1x Limos Heavy Missile Bay 5x Heavy Missile Launcher I 1x Salvager I 1x Small Tractor Beam
Medium
2x Medium Shield Booster II 1x Shield Booster Amplifier I 1x Heat Dissipation Amplifier II 1x Kenetic Deflection Amplifier II 1x Magnetic Scatering Amplifier II
Low
3x Power Diagnostic System I 1x Local Hull Conversion Nanofiber Structure I
Rigs
1x Core Defence Field Purger I 1x Capacitor Control Circut I
Thoughts?
p.s. This posted with my wrong character, that ones getting deleted. My other is Damiv, and has 6.6mil sp in all the wrong things. :p

I was playing around with my drake, and I got 13,248 shield with a recharge rate of 200 sec wich I think is around 164 shield per second, I was using 7 t2 heavys 1 tractor 4 t2 shield rechargers 2 t2 large shield extenders 4 shield power relays and No rigs I really want to see how much I can recharge per second with 3 purger rigs :P An please dont flame this setup as it is just a experiment.

So, you can take just over 150 dps at peak - about equal to some of the medium hard l3 missions, and about 50% what you need for most of the l4 'duo of death' missions.
In PVP, with another drake you'll see about 258 dps (assuming t2 launchers)with a 72% or better resist and say 11000 shields...with a regen rate about 75% yours.
try slapping t2 shield resistance amps on, slapping in 2 t2 PDU and shelling out for 3 20mil shield regen rigs. Your effective tank will go way up.
I think you'll find this particular experiment works better on paper than in practice.

I run my Drake in all lvl4 missions, have not found one yet that it will not tank
Highs: - 7x Limo's or better Heavy Missile Launcher - 1x Anything you perfer
Meds: - 1x Gist C-Type Large Shield Booster (140 to 160 mil) - 2x Mission related Domination Hardners (Less Cap) - 1x Shield Boost Amp - 2x Cap Recharger II
Lows: - 1x Best Named Capacitor Flux - 2x Ballistic Control System II - 1x Power Diagnostic System II
Rigs: -1x Core Defence Capacitor Sa***uard 1 -1x Core Defence Operational Solidifier 1 -1x Warhead Calefaction Catalyst 1
I can run my shield booster continuous, the only problem is it takes a little longer to kill the Battleships, I get 306 hp damage with Scourge heavy missles but with tech 2 I could get alot more but dont have the cpu to fit with the mods I have on.

Edited by: Legionos McGuiros on 11/03/2007 18:51:15 My Drake setup: Hi- 7x XR-3200 Heavy Launchers

Lo- 2x T2 Ballistic Control 2x Shield Power Relay
Ri- 1x Shield Extender 2x Shield Purger
With my skills this gives me 14601 shield hp and 295sec recharge. This gives you an extremly good tank which only lv4 missions can break (My resis skills arent very good). However unless you got gd missile skills this wont break a rat bs tank.
With Albalest/T2 launchers i reckon this is the best Drake setup aslong as you have the skills. This setup will break a bs tank and should be able to do lv4 missions but you need very good skills to do so. (My bc skill is lv2, my missiles are lv3 and my resis compensations are lv3)

That's BS, i could break 1.95m rat BS tanks with Malkuth launchers, less than a million in missile launcher skills and one BCU.

i am using this combo on lvl3 mission. I have tryd it on lvl4 as well ,whit some sucsess i cant brake the tank on the lvl4's BS du to my missil skills .and i cant use riggs yett so this combo will have furter potential to be bether so here go's wht i use
in hig: 7x heavy ML ( I use Limos at moment ,normaly use scruge , but wil switch if i need to 1 x Tractorbeam to colect on loot cans on missions ,so i can go back and just salvage afterwords
in med:
1 x Invulnerability Field II 2 x T2 rat specific active hardner one of etch kind 2 x T2 rat specific Passive hardner one of etch kind 1 x Large Shield Extender II's
in low: 2 x local power plant manager :reaction shield power relay I 2 x Ballistic Control System T2
This results in a shield hp 4 now around 8753 with a recharge rate of 640secs (skills dependant ) i am running kin and thermal as i type this
EM dmg resitance 63,03% Explo dmg resitance 77,6% Kin dmg resitance 84,03% Therm dmg resitance 83,90% i havent traind the shield resistans skills yett
In the damage compartment regarding the missil i get steady 120-->285 dmg a missil depending on its shield , armor or hull i am pounding .i seldom use my missils agains frigs sins the damage suck bigg .
my shield seldom gos under 50% but can go down to as mutch as 20% on the hardest lvl 3 missions befor start going upp again. i have never lost a BC after using this combo
if u cant use T2 go whit the best u have in hangare thats wht i did before i could use T2 I also have 5 light drones whit me at all time

Been using a drake for a while have this setup right now
7x Arb heavies 1x Tractor Beam
2x Large Shield Extender II 2x Domination Invul Fields 2x Shield Recharger II
4x Shield Power Relay II
3x Core Defence Field Purger I
Can tank any lev 3 mish easily so much so that you can afk for hours with full areas shooting you (never forget you are playing eve when the phone goes)
I've had a few corp mates shoot me with battlecruisers and battleships (T2 equiped raven + T2 drones couldn't do anything to the tank) and so far havent had the tank scratched and im still working on improving it, only downside is it costs alot but you get it back easily once you start grinding lev 3 mishs with it. When I am done I'll eventually have about 60/90/80/70 resists with a 400ish hp/s shield regen.

I really like this guy's set up, it seems simple and clean. Can you tell me if you were able to solo every lvl 4? any problems you encountered, and if you have any special skills that make this work for you. I'm trying to use this set up too since it looks like it worked well for you. thanks a ton

Tartar, yeah, it runs everything. Most missions I don't even bother with the SPR any more, replacing it with a third BCU. I can run the hard side of Worlds Collide L4 with just the one SPR, or the last room of Vengeance, or any of the other "hard" L4s. Zazz got downgraded to a no-spr run :P I still warp out for stop the thief, but that's because it's faster to do that and come back at 70 to kill the BS than it is to fit a heavy tank and stay.
Some hard numbers: Regen rate with no SPRs on the 3-purger refit (which has 8.5% more dps regen than the old fit): 101 DPS with management 4 and ops 5. With 1 SPR 2: 131 DPS. Worst case resistance (EM rats) EM 81%, thermal 72% at BC 4. Signature at shield rigging 3: 395 m. Peak DPS output (kinetic, 3 BCU, 5 hob 2) roughly 340 at heavy missile 4 and DI 4.
Incidentally, with 3 SPR 2s, this thing gets over 250 dps regen, and still has enough cap (barely) to run 3 invulns. I don't own a faction-fit Raven to compare to, but apparently my regen with that fit is more than a good faction booster and a boost enhancer together can put out, and mine's totally cap independent. Why you'd want to do that I couldn't say, but the capability is there.

Rigs = 2x Core Defence Charge Economizer I, 1x Powergrid Subroutine Maximizer I (was for active tank) Shield = 15510hp, Recharge Time = 331.34sec, Shield Regen is (15510/331.34)*2.5 =117.02hp/sec EM = 61.19%, EXP = 84.48%, KIN = 87.59%, THERM = 68.95%
Capacitor = 3875, Recharge Time = 635.77sec
Lowest shield level was 68% and the Capacitor was never lower than 70%
The Drake is a REAL TANK with this setup. Cost of this loadout and the Drake is cheap compared to my 1.25
billion Cerb. 
This setup I habe tried with a SPR 2 I run 2 shield recharge rigs and one extender rig.
I was surprised that my tank didnt hold up on L4 angel and gisti misisons as it did without rigs. This was untill i trained shield rigs skill to l4 and get the sig hit down, as Helen has mentioned above in L4 passive tank is one thing but not paying attention to sig hits from rigs and LSE 2's makes the torps go form 60 to 90 hits.
All in all this drake works well in l4 but u stil need to follow good mission running procedures ie dont agro the whole level.
If thats your real life i'm very jealous - Petwraith |

Okay, this is probably going to be a stupid question that may get some stick but... I'm a relatively new character (1.7mill SP) who's just got into a Drake for mission purposes, I'm doing level 2's at the moment and.. while your set ups do look relatively good... they're all too expensive... I mean, all the tech II gear (which I can't actually use yet because of lack of skills) and the named gear is all well and good but... not all of us can afford it and... without a decent setup to do missions (I have to warp away every no and again soloing level 2's in my Rokh, which... is probably quite a depressing fact but I'm not sure...) I'm not going to make the money to upgrade to a decent set up like this, so, is it possible that someone can suggest a decent, relatively cheap set up for doing level 2 missions in...?
