Raven: Difference between revisions

Line 318:

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 AB and shield booster off most of the time. When your shield drops to about 40%, 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.

If you've come to the Raven via the Drake, you're used to being cap stable all the time. No longer. Leave your AB 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.

When you've got the money, consider buying ~~Caldari Navy Ballistic Control Systems to replace your BCS IIs, and~~ a Caldari Navy X-Large Shield Booster to replace your Meta 4 or T2 booster. From there, your money can go into Caldari Navy CMLs or into a 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.
