I don't have a line, it's more of a 10-12 board area :)

How much oil does it need? Will it work on medium conditions?

Picking up my 4 DV8's this weekend i cant wait. Nick, if i wanted to have a good all around arsenal with Helraiser, Reckless, and both Misfits, how would you suggest drilling them? My PAP is 5 x 1/2up., Med speed.

Hard to say without really seeing you bowl, but I can give suggestions based on what I've seen so far!
Hell Raiser - Anywhere from 4"-5", 45-60 MB angle and 30 VAL angles have really let this ball open up the lane. Depending on your rev rate, you could use an xhole or not.
Reckless - All around performer, so far, I like the motion of a 45x5x45 with a P3 or P2. Easy through the fronts with a strong midlane but not jerky backend.
Misfits - The Yel/Mag is a little cleaner and slightly less hook, so that could be your dry lane ball. I'd go 5-5.5 with no hole. The Org/Blu looks good with a 4.5-5" layout, but I have not seen a pin down layout yet. Xhole not really needed, but this ball with surface and a stronger layout can actually fit below the Hell Raiser with the same type of ball motion.

It can work on medium, but just know this ball responds very fast to friction, so don't be afraid to chase the oil in. You can see from my video, that there is no such thing as a light mixer with this ball. It came back flush from every angle, no matter if I missd in or missed way out.
