Hey peeps,
Did a bit 'o searching, but couldn't find anything good, so here it goes.
I'm doing lvl4's for some cash, but I can't seem to squeeze enough damage out of the Raven...my setup is as follows:
high = 6 x Cruise launcher II
med = 6 x active hardeners
low = 5 x bcu II
Yes, I have a support-char in a shield transfer ship, so having as much damage as possible is pretty important to me! Torps don't have enough range, and tech to missiles cost a fortune....advice needed :)
(alternatively, any better ships recommended?)

Torps with rigs have enough range most of the time, and you can use javelins when needed.
You would have the same problem with most other ships too, the high dps weapons are the short ranged ones, and its only really torpedoes and pulse lasers that are feasble.
If you still want to use long range weapons cruise missiles or tachyons would probably give you most dps, but the others are not bad either.

So, there's no way to squeeze more damage out of my raven with cruise missiles?
If I switched to torps/javelins, would I still be able to hit @ 40-50 km range, and would I do the same or more damage?

Well, if you're sure you can handle the aggression correctly...
6x Siege Missile Launcher IIs with Javelins / normal torps. A load of missile rigs and 5x BCS II will give you the most damage possible from the Raven.
In the mid slots, I dunno; an Afterburner and a rack of Target Painters, I guess.

You want max damage but also want to stick to long range weapons? Meh... There's the 5% rof, damage and sig radius hardwirings and you could swap launchers and BCUs with CN ones. Also, get a CNR for a 7th launcher.
But if you really want to max damage, then Siege II with javelins and range rigs are what you're looking for.
For alternatives, if you're missioning in Amarr land, both the Nightmare and the Paladin blast through EM weak rats like no other.

I dont know your skills, but with all lvl 5 in EFT, you do allmost 900 dps at 45km with T1 torps (over 1k with faction). And 755 dps at 68km with javelins.
Just T2 mods and nothing but gank fitting (no guns or drones though).

You want gank? Three Warhead Rigor Catalyst 1's, will reduce the explosion radius of your cruises to the point of being able to wipe BCs, Cruisers, and Destroyers with ease. You can even ping Frigates if using drones will draw big agro.
Two Small Pithi (Pithum?) Shield Boosters, plus the aforementioned 3-4 faction BCU and Faction Cruise launchers will do yer. Move up in size of SB if you can't afford the faction small SBs, and T2 BCU/Launchers.
Your tank is your killspeed + feathering your booster. You shouldn't need any more than 3 Hardeners, and a SB and SB Amp is somewhat standard.

If you insist on more damage output AND the use of 2 accounts: Drop the shield transfer buddy and make him a damagedealer, too. If you want less hassle from the second account give him a mediocre perma boost setting and fit f.o.f. cruise. That's more damage than 1 damage dealer and 1 support.

Forget everything about tank, or defensive modules..I am only interested in gank and damage :)
I already fitted an AB for small speed burst, and now I guess the goal is faction mods to up the damage ...
