Mobula Suggestion
Spud Nick:
I thought the counter to sniping was the Glow Water Thralls.

I suppose Pyras fly themselves to glory eh? We might have won if I hadn't made so many mistakes with my manoeuvring and a couple of guns had been switched out. Those things cost us, and they're piloting/loadout issues irrespective of ship (mostly) -- nothing a bit of time and experience can't sort out.
I am (and was) fully aware of your caveat but my point was that even as a noob pilot (relatively speaking) with a sub-optimal Mobula build, I/we weren't 'easy to kill' and had some success in a competitive best of three. I'm sure we're not the only ones either. And besides, if a stock response is to just 'go Pyra' then is there any wonder we don't see so many Mobs and Spires in the skies? They're ships that require different mentalities and I think that's the real hurdle for most people, hence why they're considered 'Hard' ships to pilot and master, and hence why you don't see much success with them. I don't think that's a reason to go Pyra (or whatever) myself, it's a challenge with its risks and rewards. And I do love the rewards of the Mob.

I feel like you misunderstand me; see I went goldfish that whole match because I wanted to try and make a ship that is not used often in competition viable. I want to see more variety in ships at the competitive level. why does it seem a junker or a pyra must always be involved? the reality is mobs are rarely successful and when they are it is marked and remembered because of how uncommon it is. but again I don't fly mobs because I like to win so what do I know...
Byron Cavendish:
Guys the topic raised here was not if the mobula has ever been used competitively, it is about making it more viable.
-Mad Maverick-:
Byron their showing that it is being used in competition is an attempt to show that it already viable
