Chris Hansen Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Trust me, I'm the first person to be up in arms and calling something OP. But the mantis isn't. It's pretty weak in terms of armor, and once it's shields are down if it doesn't take cover it's game over. I really love the Mantis because it takes a good amount of skill to use properly, but is very effective when used in an effective way. If 2 or more infantry spartans get within 20 feet of you it's game over for the mantis though. Plasma pistols plus the optional ability to roll with 3 plasma grenades is a death sentence to just about every vehicle, and when coupled with Active Camo to get the drop on vehicles it just compounds the balance on this. I would have to say the Mantis one of the most balanced new vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
