Reliably beats all the LWs with the exception of Hammerhead Shark, as well as Tempest, Saber Teeth, and WIIDE LOAD.

Post by: Alterer of Reality on August 13, 2010, 05:55:19 PM: Have done so. Chassis can't be lowered further from what it was at.

Prototype test results:
Much faster. It havoks itself onto its top sometimes now. It seems to vary between matches, sometimes it havoks, sometimes it doesn't.

Post by: Vertigo on August 13, 2010, 06:03:45 PM: Yes it can
Raise the icon thingy to the very top of the bar, & then click one pixel underneath the bottom of the height bar
This should give you the minimum chasis height without BFE

I'd suggest replacing the rubbers with Hypnos, and dropping down to two ants.

Personally, I'd use 30kg hammers instead of Vlad Spikes, though I'm not sure if they'd make that much difference.

Post by: 123savethewhales on August 14, 2010, 03:32:08 PM: Lol I thought you rebalanced those normal weapons already.

Even before the boost, vlad spike was the one normal weapon that is better than those trashy non normal ones (like robotxsword, frenzy hammer, tazbot weapons, etc). It's no razor tips or ds light, but still good.

Title: Re: AoR Design & Tech
Post by: Somebody on August 15, 2010, 05:00:08 PM: Looks like it.

So lets see...
We all thought ItI would do bad, and it did good, and we all thought CGS would do alright, and it did poorly. Quick AoR enter another newbie bot into the next BBEANS!

And AntonYYYm and Ice Tornado. ;)

Wait, did you say CGS can beat Tempest?

How is such a thing possible? :bigO:

WIIDE LOAD I suppose you could luckily hit the motors, and Saber Teeth might not be hard, but Tempest?

How can 2 vlad spikes beat 4 30kg sledges in an HS contest is beyond me.

Post by: Pwnator on August 26, 2010, 04:29:48 AM: Most likely the thing that happened was CGS's spikes put all of their damage onto only one sledge, which made Tempest gyro, and the spikes hit the chassis when they had the chance. XD
