Currently I fly a NightHawk for all my lvl 4's. Whilst I have max skills for a Raven and can afford a CNR plus faction fittings, my real life can sometimes drag me away from the PC and I like the factthat the NH can just sit there if I go afk.
Also, the sub 5 second ROF is just so much fun to watch! The ships fires like a machine gun lol.

Originally by: Malusonius For Vengeance (Guristas), I always clean out the last stage minus Rachen and refit an AB and stasis web (an AB alone would work, but you risk some weird teleporting business that is very frustrating). Once you close down to 10km (the range on my Fleeting Web Prop Inhibitor) and get the web going, it becomes a cakewalk. The only missiles that can probably take him down without the player moving closer are torps (2 defenders per torp iirc?). I think even with max skills, too many cruises just get eaten by defenders and his shield boosting is too insane.
Anywho, back on topic, I'm close to flying a Nighthawk and I'll probably use that as a stepping stone between a cruise Raven and a faction/officer fitted torp CNR. I'd probably pull it out from time to time to do the AE L4 bonus room too of course. :)
FWIW I did Vengence this morning. First time I've done it with Navy missiles and even starting from 39km I managed to blow him up without needing to reload. In fact I think I still had a dozen missiles in each launcher.
Edit:And just for the record it took me 38 minutes to complete Vengence. I can also completed AE4 (excluding the bonus room) in 51 minutes.
It'd be interesting to know how this compares with the Raven variants. Personally I'm happy with my NH because I don't need the Isk but it'll help put some figures on the speed difference.
Mind if I ask what your setup is please?

Nice, thanks.
It was taking me about 50 missiles per launcher to kill the final BS on vengance. Also starting from about 39km away. I was wondering how you killed him so fast, we have identical setups apart from I have CN Launchers, then I realised my drone skills are not quite as good as yours so I guess I am loosing some DPS there.
