Welcome to 10 minutes More or Less ship review for the RSI Mantis in game version 3.24.1.
The only Quantum SNARE and Dampening deviced ship in the game.

This is using update 3.24.1, the Mantis is priced at $150 on the pledge store, but you can also obtain it in game for 3,402,000 aUEC.

This is the ship you get when you pledge for this ship or if you get it in game.
This review is of the STOCK ship.
This review is just my OPINION.

These reviews are typically around 15 minutes more or less if you don't count the intro with ship showcase and the end screens.

The bigger the ship, the bigger the review.

Love your ship reviews because you always make sure that your main footage is b-roll of the ship as you speak instead of just talking about the ship with a picture or using your playable character as a reporter while sitting in the ship.

The Mantis is such a cool ship. It's led to my most memorable experience in Star Citizen, where a bunch of friends and I had arrived at Jumptown just as another group was leaving with their spoils. Naturally, we're up for the challenge, we chased their cargo-hauling Cutlass several hundred KM into space, keeping it from leaving with our Mantis for several minutes. Unfortunately, we lost the Mantis before we could disable or destroy the Cutlass, but it was an epic high-speed brawl!

professional mantis pilot here:
- terminology of QED is not 100% correct, dampener prevents swap to nav mode, not the jump itself - snare prevents jumping away but not NAV mode and pulls out of QT - also "jam" is not really a term cig itself isnt sure about that (there is dampen and snare)
- dampener on blue is weaker than mantis (12km vs 4km - 5km for antares)
- as a matnis you dont want to engage yourself, you want to stay like 5km away to keep them dampened but not too far away to make it too easy to escape - and combat wise you wanna stay in shields either way (dmg reduction is really noticable)
- pretty sure you confused em and CS, but detection range is usually about 6-8km depending on shield/weapon status

Wow. Quantum fuel capacity makes it a much more appealing ship. Hopefully they come up with a variant or two in the future.

[Nibberler]

literally the best feeling when you snare a cargo hauler

Rsi and Gene Roddenberry had a love child

One day I lost one of the two thrusters when I was in front of the hangar, I took 30min to return to the hangar by manually activating and deactivating each maneuver thruster. It was damn hard

[oldweeb]

I never even knew this ship existed. Granted I have been playing less than two weeks so I have been binge watching your videos to see what ships I would want.

Got jumped by a Mantis literally about 12 hours ago while on my way from Seraphim to Orison, while flying my C1. Ended up sparring with the pilot and taking him out, but I would have been a floating wreck if he had friends with him. For max interdiction/pirate gameplay PLEASE bring a friend in something with some bigger guns especially if you are just starting out. Interdiction gameplay can be really awesome and bring some risk to an otherwise dull and boring hauler lifestyle!

[ImperatorClass]

It's giving me serious star trek design vibes

[j.d.]

The thing is, it's basically an interceptor with interior and a glorious view. It is heavier and bigger than other interceptors, so not as easy to dodge shots with but if you get hit you go pop instantly.
IMO it's a nice daily driver and recon ship for interceptor pilots cause of the interior and the view.

I absolutely love the sound design of the Mantis's quantum web. It's so crispy!

[rolanharris]

Can't wait to put this in the Polaris if it fits. Best pirate duo

[jimchase]

I am definitely a fanboy of your content. Keep up the good work you are appreciated more than you know.

Wow.. Those numbers certainly don’t seem bad! Love the animation for the QED. I had no idea that Mantis had an interior., although, it does look pretty bland and basic. Floor textures also look interesting. Overall, I give it a 7/10. Serves it’s purpose, but could get a nice gold standard pass 😊

[verpine]

I've had a Mantis for quite a while. I love the way it flies mostly because of its speed, but also because it maneuvers pretty well. I was using it as a daily driver for a while, but honestly the weak shields and lack of firepower make it far too vulnerable for everyday travelling. As part of an "Advocacy" interdictor wing or a pirate flotilla, it will excel at its specific task, though.

[draakdeon]

I just love the looks of this ship, hope they make a other version of this, like a explorer or pathfinder version

[LoneStarr]

Such a cool looking ship! I didn't know the dampening range was so large. I'm going to have to revisit this thing.

[JayEhch]

It really feals like it should have some storage with how large the interior is.

If the kore tana can get 1 scu this should be able to as well 😅

[ThePuppetMaster]

the humming sound bug i have makes this god tier ship unflyable for my fav ship by far
