Anyone managed to make a laser fit for Raven? I think it should be a thing.

No.
But when bored back in the day I have tried laser and projectile rokh. Not like damage is lost in the attempt. Hell, with better ammo specificity it can work out…kind of. Projectiles were interesting since, well, Rokh self neuts itself every time it fires 8 rails slowly over time.
You guys are all too rich. I was so poor i couldnt afford navy ravens. And when I could afford them, I just built a Golem instead.

still, RNI is better than golem when fit fof.
(not sure if troll or serious)
Nah, there’s just some guy that buys them all off the market… He’s a hoarder.
It’s sad, really. 
Not a troll, serious. Couldn’t afford navy raven, but by the time I save up it was just easier to build golem instead.
Also FOF? Like in, FOF missiles?
I was not sure if the answer I made was troll or serious.
It’s factual that the RNI is better with FoF than the golem, since it has embedded application bonus. However this increase in application may not surpass the raw DPS gain from the golem. So RNI beneftis more from FoF but maybe it’s still worse than grolem.
And yes, FoF missiles. Those rock. Align, once you are redbox MJD, with AB on, and the press F1.
You see, Ive never gotten around to using FoF missiles, ever. Its just never been something that ive even considered using before. Ive used Rokhs with rails before, i used to MJD and snipe off frigs, then cruisers, then battleships.
Typhoon Fleet Issue is my poison.

The problem with FoF missiles ist just that the damage is reduced a lot compared to their regular counterparts, but they work OK if you don´t care about efficiency.
Personallly I have been using FoF Golems for years (when I am actually chilling in eve for a bit) and run level 4 missions with them, while helping our new pilots in “Rookie help”.
Before the buff to the bastion module a FoF Golem, was more or less as efficient as a low skill BS and with the buff now you get around 1k dps out of it, so they can shoot their way through missions quite comfortably.
They also make good companions to take along for the some relaxed missionrunning when I am using one of my Paladins too… again it´s not very efficient to have FoF golems tag along, but running multiple marauders at once is just such an annoying clickfest (especially with the bastion buff) and when you have extra chars that can fly them, it does not hort to let them tag along and let them do their thing :).
I always carry FoF kinetic missiles they come in handy when your going against the Serpentis dampener’s. If your doing Serpentis missions you never undock without them.
Ah yes, the dark horse of the BS mission runners.
Not really a dark horse you can find me undocking out of a station in the system of Josekorn in the Panorad constellation of stars in Metropolis.
I view it like doing semi afk mining but in this case your are mining rat hulls with missiles lol.
Its something to do when you are by the computer doing other things. But…you are still there to watch local and your immediate mission area.
Not max isk per tick but way better than 0 isk basically as you do other things by the computer.
it looks awesome

the TFI is the preferred blitz ship, except against angels, within the USIA
Ah yes, the dreaded Angel Cartel, the Explosive and Kinetic damage-dealing douchebags. Since the module resists nerf by 20% the TFI (Typhoon Fleet Issue) Is a lot weaker in the Explosive resist area. It’s easy to counter just slap a couple of tech2 explosive armour resist modules in your low slots along with kinetic and your good to go. There are no Angel Cartel lvl4 missions that you will need to warp out from. Your ship should be able to blitz all the Angel Cartel lvl4 missions.
waht ?
You mean module resist nerf 20% ?
Aye thats the one my bad sorry. Cylinders not firing correctly today.
