corroforce Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I love this ship, kinda reminds me of Serenity. Rugged a little worn but beautiful in her own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TristQueloon Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It reminds me of Serenity from Fire Fly and I love it. Exactly. The textures may be different, but the interior layout is definitely influenced by the Serenity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazforce Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It was stolen on Drummond Kaas from a smuggler. So the Han Solo reference makes sence. It's a heavily armored rust bucket with giant guns and a large cargo hold. I think it suits us bounty hunters perfectly. It could probaby smash through the hull of a capital ship if it had to...

hobofett Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It beats the sith ship at least. Fury looks like it's made of lego. BLASPHEME THE FURY IS FREAKING AWESOME SAUCE!! Seriously, the only cool thing from phantom menace was Darth Maul's space ship and we get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazuhito Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 My feelings is we had to steal the ship to get it so we should have been able to steal ourselves one we liked which for me would be an IA Imperial Phantom lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordRaeth Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It's rugged and reminds me of Slave I, BH ships should look peculiar and unique and the Mantis does, anything sleeker would be weird for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazzerswords Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 duuuddude we get a bridge in our ship! I love settinga course for a planet -get out of the seat, and then jump off the bridge to the door and take 100 points of damage, gets my blood pumping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLASSlFlED Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) As someone else mentioned previously, i just wish there was an option to change the colour of the inside of the ship.. I want mine red, not yellow.. Red is cooler. Edited January 1, 2012 by CLASSlFlED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamekJ Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I love my ship. the only thing id change is the yellow lighting, kinda hurts my eyes. other than that Its my ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasuk Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) I felt the same way at first. But after seeing the others first hand, it's my second favorite (it's hard to top the Smuggler ship). Very reminiscent of Slave-1 and that's not a bad thing. You want to see a bad ship? Get in the Fury. Edited January 1, 2012 by Jasuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimmuz Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Thanks everyone for replying with positive attitude I love the swtor community As stated above, yes the yellow lights hurts your eyes, oh and btw in the room before the bridge theres a stair thingy, what is that all about??

Phrase Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 How dare you make a Han Solo reference. WE. ARE. BOUNTY HUNTERS! lol...Just trying to point out SW lore in general and the general fact that a dirty, used looking universe is part of the overall SW aesthetic. Sadly, Solo's quote is the only one I could find that expresses this idea. That said, it's not just that the Mantis is made by KSE and seems inspired by Slave 1, Jango stole the KSE Firespray and it seemed to have taken a beating from the time he had it to the time we see Boba flying it in Ep. 5.

snekadid Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Fury looks like the bastard child of the millenium falcon and the TIE advanced vader flies around in. The imperial agents is supposed to look like a luxury class ship but i still felt let down flying around in it.... Mantis is a real ship, the kind where as you fly into the middle of a million enemy ships you strap on some aviator goggles and start singing "Flight of the Valkeryias". besides you wouldnt notice if someone shot you anyways, the rust keeps the blaster marks from showing.

Quirnheim Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I have to disagree. Not only does the Mantis fit the class perfectly, but (minus the wings) it looks amazing, and the inside feels much more like a rugged ship should. This isnt your first class military issued ship that the agents and sith gets. This is a beat up powerhouse that the BH stole. I love the Mantis for all of those reasons listed.

Voxx_Voltaare Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Yup, count me as another one who absolutely loves the Mantis. Agree with the Serenity comparison as well. The ship oozes character. I even love the retractable engines. I think the only thing that would make me give up my Mantis is if they had a Firespray. I think that has to be my all-time favorite SW ship.

FoE_TooLate Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I wouldn't have any other ship. Not that I've scene them all yet. I do wonder if we will ever see PVP with our ships? True Space combat like EVE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thargrim Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I like the Mantis, but would like to be able to give it a few touches of my own. Some customibility down the line would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtoo Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 apart from the engine nacelles which look kind of stupid, i love everything else about the ship. its rugged and heavily armed, and you don't have to wander around too much to get to different parts of the ship. there are parts of the interior i would change and im sure as part of some expansion or future patch the ability to customize the interior would be added. im also they will introduce a few more unique ships as part of the expanded space combat said to be in the works.

duelpad Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) The bridge and engines look like they were stuck on to the front and sides of some kind of air tight freight container, the insides look tired and old. I was initially pleased when I got my Mantis, but when I showed my friends, they all laughed. I couldn't understand why until they showed me what they got. Now they all call my ship the bucket. Kind of sad that as a hero of the empire, master bounty hunter and grand champion of the great hunt, I cant change the look of the ship or get a better one. As much as I don't like, it did suite my hunter up until after the great hunt was over, but now, as all of the above, it's mildly embarrassing. I'm not the underdog any more and want to flaunt that fact it in style. Edited January 1, 2012 by duelpad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confusedracoon Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I love it, apart from the 3rd engine folding down when taking off.. that thing can ****. other wise. LOVE IT! and i love the fact i can take fall damage when jumping from the top floor =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
