Mamba, still dissapointing...

Don't get me wrong, I like the Mamba. But I believe that she still needs more edge compared to an FDL, to be a viable solution, especially in PvP. I don't do PvP on purpose, but I'd very much like to be in a Mamba and dealing with an FDL equipped with the current meta and still have a fighting chance.
 
Dammit, why do I never get the 'bikini option' contracts!!!

I blame Tj!

Maybe it isn't T.J. (this time), but your missing mojo?

Of course, T.J. may just have stolen your mojo...

having class 6 thrusters ,meaning weight isn't a factor would be an interesting niche

Mass never being a factor isn't a niche, just an enabler for lazy outfitting.

Or course if they do this and I fly it I may change my mind again. Statistics and feel are very different beasts

All you'd have to do to experience the feel is to strip your current Mamba until it's down to minimum thruster mass...it would then fly the same as any loadout with class 6 thrusters.

I assume you're talking about mines, but what about loading it up with flechette launchers? They stack nice enough on the FDL, and the Mamba is even more suited to popup attack runs.

so what are these targets people are talking about where there is zooming in striking fasy destroying and taking off and bombing runs. How are you finding so many harmless sidewinders to kill.

Indeed ... any target worth a jot (in either credits or just the fun of the challenge) will be far from dead from a single “boom and zoom” approach. Plus, if you do fly off to recharge shields and then come back, the NPCs frequently just de-spawn making it doubly pointless.

Large ships.
Mine them, torp them and watch them pop drifting shieldless blown to bits with a huge MC.
