Is it worth putting fof missiles on a raven thats doing lvl4s?
Was thinking of aggroing a group, going afk then repeat?

The only true afk boat out there is the domi, since after your fof's run out you have to be there to activate your missile launchers.

Set macro for F1-F6, place paperweight on macro key ;)

Might end up spending a lot of cash on wasted FOF's though
To be honest I'd say the Domi makes a better AFK boat - FOF missiles work fine but unless you have a fantastic perma tank you don't have to babysit I don't know if I'd walk away. Indeed the only two things I really do when flying a raven now is activating my booster every time my cap hits 35% (because that knocks it down to 30% and keeps me in the best sustained tank range) and selecting targets. Otherwise I just mash f1 - f6.

passive drake with heavy launchers, load fof's, fire all, come back every 5-10 mins to refire

My drake unloads it's launchers in just over 4.5 minutes. For what that's worth, which isn't much. The DPS hit from FOF's may be acceptable when you have some to spare (like a raven) but in a drake . . . I'm not convinced a lower skilled pilot could hope to break the tougher mission BS' tanks.
My Drake only puts out 369 DPS with heavies and T1 scourges, just over 400 with faction scourges. I'm not sure what the max DPS of a Drake is but I'd hazard a guess that it's in the vicinity of 410 DPS with T1 missiles.
Still, one could handily AFK L3 missions in a FOF drake. I may have to test the level 4 FOF theory to see how it works.

well I used to pack a bunch of FOF cruise of my raven but not for going AFK with,just in case the guritas got insanely luckly with jamming so I could at least fire something at them,but yeah raven isn't a AFK boat,if you aggro everything in some lv4's your tank wouldn't hold for too long.

Forget the tank, forget the loading. It's just a big waste of money. If you want to AFK, get a Domi.
