Gistii a-type with two amps repairs 85+ every 2 seconds for 12 energy. With proper hardners you can tank most level 4 missions without even turning on your main booster.

Originally by: In'Nala Raven is an excellent BS vs BS ship but the Apoc and Geddon are more versatile. Pick the ship to fit the job you want to do with it.
I believe the raven can do the same as both the Apoc and geddon.. even at the same time
And I don't believe the Raven can tank anything like an Apoc... not even half the time.
Proberbly not, but the hp/s are alot higher, so you dont need to.
With great power, comes great responsibility. |

You need far far less sp to be effective raven pilot than amarr.
bullsh!t here speaks someone who has no clue about raven piloting, if you want to be able to run mission like no tomorrow you will want to use a raven. the following set up allows you to easily run all missions with the exception of the borked RMR missions.
6x tech2 cruise missile launchers 2 x tractor beams (excellent for looting) 5 x tech2 power diags 1x XL tech2 shield booster 1 x tech2/named target painter 1 x tech2 large shield exstender 3 x shield resistance amp mods (relevant to the npc u are hunting) 7 x tech2 medium drones (type relevant to tehj npc u are hunting)

6x tech2 cruise missile launchers 2 x tractor beams (excellent for looting) 3 x tech2 power diags 2 x tech2 ballistic control mods 1x XL tech2 shield booster 1 x tech2/named target painter 1 x tech2 large shield exstender 3 x shield resistance amp mods (relevant to the npc u are hunting) 7 x tech2 medium drones (type relevant to tehj npc u are hunting)
The first set up is for the uber tank with decent damage, improvable with high levle missile skills. The second set up is for a good tank with unreal damage. you will be able to one/two volley most frigates/AF.
Note contrary to the nub statement about Raven = good with no skills, thanks to teh massive missile over nerf raven = th3suck without lots of skills.

What this 'noob' here ment was: If you want to hit anything smaller then a BB with an Apoc, you need to have a lot of Turret skills trained up. Thats for you to hit the target. With a Raven, once you hit Torp 1, you can effectivly deal a lot of DPS instantly. Sure, you don't get the insane dps you would get with all your skills and all those T2 mods, but the torp will hit. I have a noob Caldari with 2 in BS and 1 in torps. With 4 BCUs (since your shield tanking stuff goes into the mid slots) I deal 600+ damage per torp hit consistantly. If I had those kinds of skills with my Amarr main, my Tachyons would never hit. . .
The awful thing about Gunnery skills is - you need them to do any dps with an Apoc. My Torps also never miss. . .I may get a hit for 60, but thats still something.
Sorry to break this to you but, the bottom line is: you need gunnery skills for an Apoc (and even more so for a Geddon), its not about damage, its about hitting. For a Raven, the Torp sorta does the hitting for you.
