The Mamba - Meet, Yeet & Retreat [Elite Dangerous Ship Review]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2023
- The Mamba from Zorgon Peterson is their most expensive bounty hunting ship - but the question is, is it all style and no substance, or is it actually any good?
In this video, I go through my personal impressions on this medium unaliving machine.

The mamba is a stunning ship. I do like having all hard points on top of ship. Unleash all hard points as you pass below the bounty you’re hunting, flip and repeat. Embrace the jousting!
Also I enjoy popping to a station in a hauler (taxi), picking up a few bounties, sit in bar as I await arrival of my Mamba. Then enjoy the hunt. Nice element of role play.
The Mamba, unlike the Fer-de-Rarri, manages to emulate the most annoying dilemma only shared by everything on a large pad: "what the hell do I put on these small hardpoints?"
Great video, I agree the Mamba is a very good looking ship and you get what you see, a cockpit between two engines and some big guns strapped to it :D
I would like to see the clipper in one of the next videos, she is an interesting and beatiful ship!
Oooh Clipper is a good shout - would stage the path to the Cutter as well (I have one, but feel that it's best to get the small and medium faction locked ships out the way first).
I only played a little bit of Elite Dangerous a year or two ago, but I fell in love with the Mamba from the moment I saw it. An absolutely stunning ship and I spent quite a bit of my playtime with my friends at the time working up the cash to buy myself one and I gotta say... It's a joy to fly one of these, numbers be damned.
the best use of this ship is signal source hunting. you can scan wakes, collect materials, repair and refuel ships, if pirates are there you can fly away so fast they can just send you messages about how they would blow you up if they could still see you on their instruments. its relaxing game play for me. I never have a destination in mind so its jump range means nothing. so I often find things to explore. I dont like to "sleep" in space so this also leads me to dock at stations I would not usually visit, especially stations on planets. I used to take screen shots of the names of all these bases I normally never would see. I can also land on fleet carriers and part of me wonders "will I still be in the same place when I come back?"
Ah yes, the midlife crisis ship of the future! 👨🚀
That got a genuine IRL LOL out of me, well played.
Just glad I wasn't drinking any coffee at the time 😂
It's why I named mine, "Muscle Car"
This is what i named my corvette. But i may need to name my Mamba this as well. Maybe something like MLC*2
It definitely makes up for the weak fsd by pretty much not overheating near stars. 3A fuel scoop and you can go to the literal end of the universe with it rather quickly, without ever needing to worry about refueling, and carrying too little firepower at the same time.
our beloved ax support ship
private session of 10 to 12 friends and this ship with some healy lasers and repair limpets
someone got the genious idea of using the mamba and dam its cool as that
Mamba is my combat zone ship of choice. Huge cannon on top, the rest frags. It has teeth for human interlopers and shreds npc ships, and looks good doing it.
And it's fast enough of course, to engage in the better part of valor. :)
as a mamba main, i appreciate this video. :)
Love it, keep it up!
I also has a Mabma, along with almost every ship. It is a fast slick ship, and I like it.
Easily one of the best looking ships in the galaxy and has the power to go with it. Just a pity it doesn't handle better though.
Guessing the Cobra MK4 is the reason you have *almost* every ship?
@@gamingsnipsandbits yes, that is one, the other is the Asp Scout, that is really just a worse Asp Exp.
Meet, yeet and retreat is the essence of the glorious Mamba…..I have 5.
As an FDL pilot, this made me want to invest in a Mamba. I'm curious how a full seeker build would do.
The Mamba has it where it counts, as long as what counts is looking absolutely stunning. IMHO, it's hands down the most beautiful ship out there. If it had better maneuverability I'd use it for bounty hunting, but since staying alive is more important to me than leaving behind a stylish corpse, I stick with my FDL.
It's a shame that it's not even the best racer out there. I've got a Viper that'll leave it in the dust on a straight line, and a canyon racing Eagle that's at least as fast as the Mamba but can turn on a dime.
I wonder if the Mamba's maneuverability is really a problem. From looking at it, the Mamba seems like it can pull lead better that the FDL. considering the weapon mounts. The Mamba has all of its guns on top all upward mounted while the FDL has 4 class 2 weapons on the sides with possibly bad firing angles and the FDL has its class 4 gun on the bottom which means you have to pull lead really hard to make use of it, unless you have a laser which should not be too hard. I don't really disagree with the overall assessment, FDL is more suited for a fighter role while the Mamba can be classified as an interceptor.
@@Soundwave142 I have to retract at least some of my comment. I just built a Titan bomber Mamba, and I'm finding that I rather like it. I can't make a comparison with the FDL yet, but I have to admit that the Mamba handles better than I'd expected. And it's still absolutely gorgeous.
@@Datan0de Who says something cannot look nice and do well like and ornate sword?
Love these videos
Thanks bud, glad you're enjoying them. o7
You make me want to return to the verse!
Give it a whirl if you've got an account - it's not the newest game in the world, but there's still plenty of space to explore, and drops of new content (depending when you left)
@@gamingsnipsandbits I left soon after Odyssey dropped. I played since launch though, would be nice to dust off the old Mamba
I have been toying with the thought to pick one up for a while, but I can't quite summon the energy to pull the trigger. I think you conclude that it is best for combat, but perhaps isn't very good at it. I rarely break out the FDL. My go to for combat is the Python and if it is too hot a location, the Corvette. I do like dropping down to the smaller ships, if in a wing and I am not relying on my fire power alone to bring the beast down. I had surprising fun with a Fed Gun Ship as my last purchase, so I might be surprised.
It's not that it's "bad" at combat - it can be made to be excellent at killing things. But it's a lot of work to get there compared to other ships, and even so the handling is still not great after.
Can't remember which "officially" has better manouverabilty stats, but in some respects the Corvette does feel more pliable. Even if it lacks the immense speed that the Mamba can put out
@@gamingsnipsandbits Yeah, perhaps not the worst ship in the game but to a degree a pointless one. Feel sad for the Asp Scout. It isn't the worst ship in the game at all. It is the absolute best ship in the game for the one task of High Grade Emission farming.
I have a Mamba outfitted with all frag cannons and I love it. It’s such a blast to boost at targets, unleash hell, and then boost around to do it all over again. I’d highly recommend it if you’re ever serious about a mamba build.
@@alexklug-noble8877 Thanks Commander o7
Mamaba and FDL have the same damage output, weapon sizes dont double in damge output each time they get larger, but just mulitply by the factor of the weapon size, so a size 1 is 25% of a size 4, a 2 is 50% the damage of a size 4, a size 3 is 75% of a size 4....to make it simple just add the numbers up on the sizes of a ship, in this case they both equal 12
Any hardpoint is 1.5 times the DPS of an identical weapon the size below it (except missiles). Easier to math things out that way. The Mamba actually has a slight DPS advantage over the FDL.
Using g5 OC fixed pulses as an example, the FDL has a DPS of 127.9 while the Mamba has a DPS of 134.2. It's less than a c1 hard point, but it's an advantage. You can put this into Coriolis if you don't believe me.
If anything, the fact that the Mamba's c1s have less pierce than the FDL's c2s, but the FDL lacks the pierce of the c3s, might mean that they're theoretically more effective against different ships in some _very_ niche matchups.
@Majima_Nowhere no the easiest way to do the maths is just add the weapon size of each ship against another ship, as I explained above, no need to over complcate what is a pretty easy way to compare ships fire power, and the Mamba and FDL are the same, yes i know you can come with slightly different DPS values depending different weapons loudouts but they difference is so negible, biggest problem with the Mamba is simply the size 3 are that far apart you can't put fixed weapons on them so your forced to use gimbaled weapons which is obviously not preferable and cuts down your options...which is why the FDL is by far the most popular PVP ship in the game not the Mamba
This is one of my favorite ships, it's just so fun to fly.
I love everything about this ship - except the turning rate. Even fully engineered, it doesn't hold a candle to a fully engineered Krait MkII. It's really pretty and fast though with an immersion breaking huge weapon that apparently shoots through your cockpit when fire downward.
Mamba Light? Maybe one of the new ships this year?
It's one of the ships where the name was extracted from the game files around the time Odyssey was released - there's absolutely sod all information about it though, aside from the name - but with 4 new ships coming it's hopefully a possibility (although I'd like at least one more ship built from the ground up)
A cockpit with two huge engines and class 4 hardpoint on its forehead. And somehow, it's one of the best combat ships in the game )
Another ship I haven't purchased yet. Someday though, no doubt. It does look good.
it looks like a baby Normandy
Suggestion: DBX or Krait Phantom
Both good shouts - Phantom is my go-to explorer, so probably already have some decent footage too. Think I've got some unused footage from the DBX kicking around too
Please do the Orca soon :)
Putting the script together for this one at the moment, whilst working on getting the Alliance Crusader video out - so it won't be the next one, but it'll almost definitely be the one after :)
Need a shirt with a Mamba that says
Meet
Yeet
Retreat
REPEAT
I approve 👍🏽
Thanks bud, glad you enjoyed. o7
"yeet"? Fucking hell.
Funny still seeing ship reviews in 2023
I might be 5+ years too late, but it's enjoyable giving each ship a decent run when getting the footage, and messing around with the editor, so it's still a lot of fun to put them together for me 🙂.
You never know, FDev may give us more ships one day. We might even get one called "the pig" that flies exceptionally well...
@@gamingsnipsandbitsjust keep going, I frickin love them
I have owned 2 mambas... and regretted both purchases
That bad? Was it the handling that was the problem, or something else with the ship?
I refuse to comment on the video.
I see what you did there 😉
looks pretty dies ugly
