== Summary ==

The Raven is a dedicated missile boat, that can be fitted with either cruise missile launchers or torpedo launchers and has equal bonuses to both. It is a very popular PvE level 4 mission runner, since it can use any missile ammunition equally well, allowing free choice of damage type. Their low speed and less-than-stellar tank make Ravens a rarer sight in PvP, though torpedo firing Ravens can make a serious dent in enemy battleships... if they can get in range. When fit with cruise missiles ravens have excellent range without needing to sacrifice slots on tracking enhancers or computers. In PvE this is a nice advantage, but in PvP the long travel time of the missile gives the target ample time to align and warp away unless it is held by a tackler, making ravens unpopular PvP snipers.

The '''Raven''' is an iconic missile boat, the fifth entry in the Caldari line of missile flinging monsters after the [[Kestrel]], [[Corax]], [[Caracal]], and [[Drake]]. It has a rate of fire bonus for all battleship-sized missile launchers and a velocity bonus for cruise missiles and torpedoes, which increases their effective range. This range bonus makes it possible to create cruise missile fits that reach up to 300 km, the maximum lock range of subcapitals.

However, if you plan on a career as a Raven L4 missioner, it's worth it for the productivity gain.

−
The Raven is primarily used in PVE, specifically mission running, due to its reliance on missiles for damage dealing. Missiles take time to reach their target, invalidating or handicapping their use in certain other roles.
 
  
−
If you've come to the Raven via the Drake, you're used to being cap stable all the time. No longer. Leave your afterburner and shield booster ''off'' most of the time. When your shield drops to about 40%-33%, pulse your shield booster to keep your shield in that range. Always keep an eye on your available capacitor charge; if you start to run low, warp out and recharge. Be aware that using your AB compromises your cap, and therefore your ability to tank damage.

* T1, Faction and Pirate Battleship base scan resolution increased 30%
  
−
Your mission weakness is going to be frigates; killing these with cruise missiles is ''slow''. Always carry a flight of light scout drones and use these to kill frigates. If you're facing elite frigates or interceptors that attack your drones, recall your drones, ignore the frigates, and only kill them last if you have to.

When you've got the money, consider buying a Caldari Navy/Guristas X-Large Shield Booster to replace your Meta 4 or T2 booster, and Caldari Navy Ballistic Control Systems to replace your BCS IIs. From there, your money can go into Caldari Navy CMLs or into a {{Ship|Raven Navy Issue}}. Note that the Caldari Navy CMLs have a much higher CPU requirement than the Arbalests, so check your fitting in EFT with your skills to see if you can run them.

Summary

The Raven is an iconic missile boat, the fifth entry in the Caldari line of missile flinging monsters after the Kestrel, Corax, Caracal, and Drake. It has a rate of fire bonus for all battleship-sized missile launchers and a velocity bonus for cruise missiles and torpedoes, which increases their effective range. This range bonus makes it possible to create cruise missile fits that reach up to 300 km, the maximum lock range of subcapitals.

The Raven is very popular for PvE combat since it can keep range and use any missile ammunition equally well, allowing free choice of damage type to target NPCs' weaknesses. It is also a good stepping stone to the Tech 2 Golem.

The Raven also sees some use in PvP. Cruise missile fits, for example, are popular in larger scale structure defenses.
