Hey guys, newbie here.

  • what is a good updated fitting for rattlesnake - angels (T2 , no faction gear)
  • what skills should I have in order to run this successfuly?
  • what are the hubs (port, hub, haven, etc) I should do with this fitting for max ISK?

Any info is welcome, thank you!

Over 1200 DPS even with normal, vanila, T1 ammunition. Without using cap booster you can tank over 200 EHP/s, since that fit is partly range tanking (warp or LMJD so, that you are at 70 from NPC) you probably can do Sanctum or Heavens without single cap booster charge used.
Just do not forget to switch RHML to other target, when you current one is at half armor. Missiles are already in space, they will finish it. If not - finish it with drones. Wasting shots is a main problem with RHML fits.

why RHML and not cruise? I have cruise missiles 5 btw

To let your drones help you. With low drone control range (under 100 km) you will have to rely on your missiles to do the job, losing bonused drones damage portential, doing only half ot he damage. And since cruise missiles have worse appication over heavy missiles, there is little point to use them . Of cause you can warp at 100, turn off and LMJD away so you will sit 200+ km from NPC and still hit them with

But it will be less effective, IMHO. You will spend more time, and your ticks will be lower.

hmm okay, how about sentries?

Your Wardens have optimal very close to your drone control range. But stil under 100 km. It is not Dominix with its unique drone range bonus.

Same as every RS fit.

Cruise Missiles, not heavies. Ammo to taste. In this case Explosive.

You fly in at 100. Wardens pick off fast frigates/des/cruiser. Use Warriors if/when they get under your sentry range.

Cruise missile TF out of BC/BS.

MJD out as needed.
