Capping Ship

Post by Bill Huntington » Mon, 29. Oct 12, 16:41

The best one you can buy is the Mamba Vanguard. That is what I work up to. There is an Advanced Proto Mamba, but you can only cap it. A regular Mamba is not bad. You can cap the Mamba and Mamba Vanguard also. They are used as Weapons Dealers, and fast transports.

I like the speed of the Mamba series.

In this game, just about any M5, M4, M3 can be a capping ship.
Bill in S.F., enjoying the game

Mamba Raider IIRC for its turret and speed.
The Chimera is also a good choice if you can afford it (or acquire it through Return ship mission) early in the game.

I also cast my vote for Mamba (any variation works). They are often used by high tech traders and flown through pirate space like a car showroom. Go cap one. :) All use the PBE.
