I'm looking to maximize my mission support Raven, and I'm trying to figure out why people are posting DPS that's often 100-200 more than EFT/EveHQ shows with all skills @ 5 and identical equipment.
For example: http://eve.battleclinic.com/loadout/23851-Raven-Navy-Issue-Proper-CNR-mission-fit.html
Claims over 800DPS. Yet it comes out to be 700DPS with all skills at V (645 for my current skills).
Are there basic implants I'm missing that make that much of a difference in damage?
Any advice on maximizing support DPS from a Raven or CNR would be appreciated.
Thanks! --- CuddleMonkey! |

Edited by: CuddleMonkey on 10/10/2009 02:42:16 Ahh that did it. I was so fixated on mission support (my main is dommie tank with sentries) I didn't think to add them in heh.
I'm debating if it's worth going CNR with the Caldari Cruise Launchers and Caldari Ballistic Systems, etc. for supporting L4's. Costs would be ~$1B I think, but my DPS would be >200 higher...
Decisions decisions...
Thanks!

The layout I have planned is:
[Raven Navy Issue, CNR Mission Boat]
7x Caldari Navy Cruise Missile Launcher (Caldari Navy Cataclysm Cruise Missile) Drone Link Augmentor I
Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron 2x Invulnerability Field I Photon Scattering Field I X-Large Shield Booster II Shield Boost Amplifier II
Capacitor Flux Coil II 4x Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System
3x Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I
5x Hammerhead II

A few questions - is it worth using faction ammo in L4's? (remember this is a support ship - extra DPS with my L4 dommie). Also, what's the best price I can get a CNR at? They seem to be going up >$600M now...

My goal is to complete L4 missions as soon as possible with 2 accounts (note I have a 3rd in training for L5's but a bit away from that).
I use a Drone Dommie (650dps) and my Raven (400dps). I can clean out any L4 mission in under an hour, easy, with most taking ~20m. I salvage afterwards with a Catalyst (looking @ Hurricane).
Switching to a CNR with cruises gives me an additional 160dps.
So there we go - right now I run things pretty simple, but it works well. I'm just looking to up the speed. --- CuddleMonkey! |

Edited by: CuddleMonkey on 10/10/2009 16:19:57 How do you get 850 DPS in a Dommie? This setup only does 700 DPS (with Garde II drones). Note I can tank any L4 with my LAR/MAR combo...
[Dominix, Pancake Express IV]
5x Dual 250mm Railgun II (Antimatter Charge L) Drone Link Augmentor I
100MN Afterburner II 4x Cap Recharger II
Large Armor Repairer II Medium Armor Repairer II Armor Thermic Hardener II Armor Kinetic Hardener II Armor Explosive Hardener II Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II Damage Control II
Large Sentry Damage Augmentor I 2x Large Capacitor Control Circuit I
5x Garde II
Also, one thing about the Golem vs. CNR - the CNR is the winner hands down for L4's because of the # of missiles. Golem only launches 4, and the rats of L4's have many defender missiles. Often one or two don't get through each volley. With a CNR you're guaranteed 5 hits... --- CuddleMonkey! |
