==Summary==

== 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.
  
==Skills==
+
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]].
*'''[[Skills:Spaceship Command#Caldari_Battleship|Caldari Battleship]]''' to at least IV to take advantage of the DPS and range Buffs that come with every extra level in the skill.
 
*'''[[Skills:Missiles#Cruise Missiles|Cruise Missiles]]''', and '''[[Skills:Missiles#Torpedos|Torpedos]]''' should be trained to V, and '''[[Skills:Missiles#Cruise_Missile_Specialization|Cruise Missile Specialization]]/[[Skills:Missiles#Torpedo Specialization|Torpedo Specialization]]''' to at least I to fit T2 Launchers, which do more damage and can be substantially cheaper than meta 4 variants, along with providing the ability to use T2 ammo types.
 
*'''[[Skills:Missiles#Missile Launcher Operation|Missile Launcher Operation]], [[Skills:Missiles#Rapid Launch|Rapid Launch]], [[Skills:Missiles#Warhead Upgrades|Warhead Upgrades]]''', skills which increase DPS and are thus vital to all missile-based damage dealing ships, should all be trained to at least IV.
 
*Along with the requisite '''[[Skills:Engineering#Engineering|Engineering]]''' and '''[[Skills:Electronics#Electronics|Electronics]]''' skills required for adequately fitting most ships. '''[[Skills:Gunnery#Weapon Upgrades|Weapon upgrades]]''' and '''[[Skills:Gunnery#Advanced Weapon upgrades|Advanced Weapon Upgrades]]''' should be trained to V and IV respectively to help alleviate fitting problems.
 
*'''[[Skills:Missiles#Guided Missile Precision|Guided Missile Precision]], [[Skills:Missiles#Target Navigation Prediction|Target Navigation Prediction]]''' and '''[[Skills:Electronics#Target Painting|Target Painting]]''' to at least IV to combat smaller targets and gain access to the T2 '''[[Target Painter]]''' module.
 
*'''[[Skills:Electronics#Electronic Warfare|Electronic Warfare]]''' should be trained to level III to allow training of '''[[Skills:Electronics# Long Distance Jamming| Long Distance Jamming]]''' which increases the optimal range of target painters by 10% per level.
 
*'''[[Skills:Missiles#Missile Projection|Missile Projection]]''' and '''[[Skills:Missiles#Missile Bombardment|Missile Bombardment]]''' to at least IV and ideally V to maximize the range at which all missiles travel.
 
*'''[[Skills:Drones#Drones|Drones V]], [[Skills:Drones#Combat Drone Operation|Combat Drone Operation V]], [[Skills:Drones#Drone Interfacing|Drone Interfacing IV]]''' and '''[[Skills:Drones#Gallente Drone Operation|Gallente Drone Operation I]]/[[Skills:Drones#Minmatar Drone Operation|Minmatar Drone Operation I]]''' are all are important for getting as much DPS out of the drone bay as possible.
 
*'''[[Skills:Shields#Shield Operation|Shield Operation]]''' and '''[[Skills:Shields#Shield Management|Shield Management]]''' should be trained to at least IV to improve shield capacity and recharge rate.
 
*'''[[Skills:Shields#Tactical_Shield_Manipulation|Tactical Shield Manipulation]]''' should be trained to IV reduce shield penetration chance and to allow the use of the T2 [[Shield_Tanking#Shield Hardeners|Shield Hardeners]], taking it to V is considered by some to be a net negative to survivability.
 
*'''[[Skills:Shields#Shield_Upgrades|Shield Upgrades]]''' should be trained to IV to allow the use of T2 '''[[Shield_Tanking#Dampening_Amplifiers_and_Basic_Dampening_Amplifiers|Resistance Amplifiers]], [[Shield_Tanking#Shield_Boosters|Shield Boosters]], [[Shield_Tanking#Shield_Power_Relays|Shield Power Relays]], [[Shield_Tanking#Shield_Extenders|Shield Extenders]]''' and '''[[Shield_Tanking#Shield_Rechargers|Shield Rechargers]]'''.

*Finally, '''[[Skills:Armor#Hull Upgrades|Hull Upgrades]]''' should be trained to level IV to allow use of the T2 '''[[Shield_Tanking#Damage_Control|Damage Control]]''' module.

==Tactics==
+
''Every Cruiser, Battlecruiser and Battleship now warps faster than before.''
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.
 
  
A highly skilled Raven pilot with no implants, flying a pure T2 ship, can apply over 800 dps with T2 fury cruise missiles to battleship and battlecruiser targets while sporting a >500 EHP/sec active (omni-damage) tank for >3 minutes and still have an afterburner to move about the battlefield. But you won't need to even turn on your engines for many Level 4 missions with that kind of tank. Should you need more, you can replace the afterburner. Switching to T2 precision missiles, you can annihilate frigates through cruisers with a maximum of nearly 600 dps. The amount applied will of course depend on target signature radius and velocity.
+
* Warp Speed increased from 2 AU/s to 3 AU/s (+1 AU/s)
 +
}}
  
Once you're raking in money on Level 4s and you want some bling, fitting a deadspace shield booster and some better adaptive invulnerability fields to your Caldari Navy Raven will give you a 1000 EHP/sec tank. At this point, your ship is one part target for suicide gankers and one part "L4 Mission Win Button".

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.

Skills

Tactics

You can either fit a micro jump drive and cruise missiles and kite, or you can fit a microwarpdrive and torpedoes to brawl.

Notes

The Raven is a rare example of an EVE ship that has a name meaning the same thing as the name of another ship: "corax" also means "raven".
