I'll take your best shot (FDL vs Clipper)

LAME. I have three Clippers, none carry weapons
I have three for it's strength's, not some lame combat ship.

Most of my guys are BGS maestros so if they come at y'all in anything its for love of the game and a desire to improve skills. Btw, thanks for the practice
I'm not really ending the video. Yes, I understand that it’s not a warship that Clipper has practically no chance against the FDL and that he can only get a dumb battering ram.
But what is a man doing on Mamba? What is it that the balance of ships in the Elite has already led to the fact that you can not really bother with the battle but stupidly ram?
When a man on T10 rammed me on Clipper, I understand that. But Mamba ram FDL I do not understand

Whats wrong with ramming?
Sorry, but a discussion of this, I think it will be off topic here.
But personally, I always thought that ramming is an extreme and forced measure in battle. However, the mechanics of ramming the game are not entirely clear to me. Do you turn off the shield when landing?
There is no "topic" just a pvp clip.
Ramming is just another way to deal out damage , its standard operating procedure.
Not really seeing your point about shields and landing tbh.

Nothing interesting. Weak clipper, weak tactics. But not bad for first pvp
Its my first PvP with PAs. @SergMx - My FDL is built for ramming so I welcome it when the opponent tries to use that against me in a fight.
If the shield prevents mechanical damage, then why does it not interfere with landing?
Because they use a variable-geometry flux-field-compensator* to allow your ship's shields to attach to the landing field.**
* I made that up.
** it's called gameplay reasons.
In a typical fdl on clipper encounter i'd be amazed if there wasnt a ram. Both ships excell at it.
The 7C biweave clipper regenerates its shield like 50x faster than the 5/4A prismatic FDL, but has a much smaller HP pool. Pretty much the only chance I had was to ram, regen, ram.
I'm curious about your hull on that thing, my corrosive multi had little effect that I could see. You lost most of your hull by ramming.
Nearly 3000 hull with with like 50% kinetic resistance. As for the ramming when my shields were down, I'd have to go over the footage but basically its a combination of me being used to ramming always because I fly booster stacked prismatics normally, and the fact that it can be hard to avoid a ram if you are in a ship as big as the clipper and trying to hit with frags.
Why wouldn't you ram a ship thats at half shields when you are at full shields? Gets you closer to a high wake or kill.
The mamba is faster in a straight line then the FDL which makes it a good rammer. In hindsite, I should've evaded his rams since he has pretty good shields.
