Hello all,
I've been searching the forums for a few days now looking for some aid in trying to get a decent Raven Tank working for me. My shield skills are about medium, ect I had no problems passive tanking my drake but my ravens active tank doesn't do too well.
Fittings for tank:
Mid:
- X-Large CL5-L Emergency Shield Overload
- Shield Boost Amp I
currently mounted kenetic, heat, explosion amp IIs
- 1 target painter which I want to get rid of, hasn't improved my damage all that much with cruise missles
Thank you for your time, looking for the great input the eve community always is willing to provide
setup for pve ... cost is a medium issue I do have some isk but not a whole lot

Swap CMLs for Torp Launchers and a Tractor/Salvager Combo
Use T2 Active hards, and rig it with some CCC rigs and your set for basically any level 4 mission!
Swap your lows around with BCUs/PDUs too make it fit.
MY current lowsec level4 spamming unrigged raven is:
6x Named Torp Launchers Tractor/Salvager
Top named XL Booster
T1 Boost Amp (or T2, if you have the cpu and skills)
3x T2/Named Active Hards (named for cpu problems)
T2 Invul
2x BCUs (t2) 3x PDUs (Named because I cant be assed to go buy t2.....)
You can add a Coproc to lows for a PDU, add another BCU and fit it all ;D
Im ugly, just look at my face!

You'll have to train for a while for this one, but I love it.
High: 6x Torps (my preference) or Cruise Missiles
Mid: 1 Large Shield Booster II
1 Shield Boost Amp 1
4 Hardeners (2 EM and 2 Thermal for Sansha)
Low: 3x Ballistic Control System II
2x Capacitor Flux Coil II
Rigs: 3x Capacitor Control Circuit 1
With maxed skills it permaruns.
P.S. About the Target Painter, it's worth your time investment to get Missile Launcher Operation V, then the skill "Guided Missile Precision." |

For this fit, drop the nos and you shouldnt need to use a coproc. Add another PDU in the lows and tractor/savager in the highs so you can loot/salvage some during the mission.
tbh, you only really need painters for torpedo fits
Also, to increase your tank, invest in getting T2 Active Shield Hards

Ok thank you so far
I have gotten rid of the painter and placed instead a Tech II Invul which has helped the tank drasticly, going to be going along with the other ideas, currently running a mission atm

to tell the truth ive had the most sucess with an armor tanekd raven
torp launchers in high
fill mids with t2 rechargers
large rep hardners and if needed pwg mod in lows
and you can also slap another rep in there and keep em both running till the server shuts down
damage is meh but you shrue as hell aint dyin to rats

Target painters are best used on torpedo setups, FYI.

6 x siege launchers / 0-1 x cloak or whatever
Xl sb t2 (or faction, if you can't fit a cap injector and you need it. Caldari navy and dread guristas XL boosters are pretty cheap.)
3-4 x active hardeners t2
0-1 x sb amp / heavy cap inj / cap recharger t2
1 x painter /sensor booster (only with cloak)
1 x pdu t2, 3-4 x bcu t2, 0-1 x flux coil.
3 x ccc rigs
Works for missions but for 00 ratting is a bit overkill. :P You'll have a painfull wait till rats respawn.
I know my setup layout seems a mess, but hope it helps. :)

If all you do is change to active resist hardeners, your tank will be much stronger. You might also swap out a bcs for another pds, but only if you have to. Tank is secondary to damage assuming you don't get assploded. So in short, 4 active hardeners, 1 shield boost amp, and your shield booster(move on to tech2).
