That's what I call creativity!

My first bot reaching the desired weight for a UHW!

Decided to upgrade it with something more similar to a "mouth". It can open and close. Its performance isn't much different than the previous version but it is slightly more agile. The wedges are better than the 1st Devourer and this version has 2 pairs of vlad spikes powered by burst motors hidden below the wedges instead of the back striking ones. With this one, attacking from below is not a very reliable option anymore. The only downside compared to Devourer 1 is that it cannot upright itself at all if flipped. That's why it has those very long "arms" to stabilize it.

>Improved armor
>Agile
>Very strong weaponry and fast killing power
>Good wedges

>Average speed
>Not invertible
>Stabilizer arms make the bot extra wide which in turn makes it vulnerable in corners.

gf pls go

and im not too sure about the spike strips, surely you should put an additional amount of razor blades with higher DP and no normals?

No.

Irons would work well too, since they're 4kg lighter than the Spike Strips apiece, and their length and ability to constantly damage with contact would make them both good for trapping, and more durable than razors.

Come on now, this bot is clearly not made for efficiency..... No UHW could possibly fit inside that thing. It's for looks and killing things roughly 4750kg less than it does. So spike strips is fine in this context.

Yeah some battleshots would be nice.

That is correct. It's very hard to get any big bots in between the the discs or even impossible. It pretty much functions like 2 giant saw blades. But any weapon or some kind of extender coming out of the opponent can be successfully destroyed with this bot. If i wanted to fit bigger bots in it i would have to remove the spike trips and maybe add some beater bars instead.

Here are some battleshots for the swallowing attempt as requested only with HWs

Very efficient weapon design against any type of vertical or horizontal extended weapon. In the second pic i was lucky in taking the shot before the opponent was thrown backwards.

These show my weapon upgrade for Devourer 2. Now packs a bigger punch and protects the square panels. Also it allows more room to swallow bots. In the 1st pic i was trying to break those hammers and then swallow the body but i destroyed it first.
The 2nd pic was successful. The opponent was destroyed almost instantly when got inside.

Please note that it's very hard to take a pic of a bot in between the discs because they spin 1 or 2 times inside and then are thrown out very quickly without giving me time to press print screen.

A tip for getting the screenshots: Press the Pause Break button, it will pause the match and you can rotate your camera around to get a screen.

Wow, you ate Mikado!

Try Shiva and Claymore next! (tip: change your wedge to small wedge's to get a higher chance of eating them).

I'm guessing you have NAR AI...

Can you try eating the SHW from The Scrappers team, Scrapyard Beast I think it's called? It's certainly a wild whiplash of destruction and wtfness, I'd love to see Devourer...

devour it :D

Domanating · « **Reply #298 on:** October 20, 2012, 01:01:54 PM »

Followed Suede's advice and put 2 small wedges.

I think that to better see the action a video is necessary. All 3 battle requests are there

It feels so nice to see Scrapyard Behemoth get degraded and humiliated by something bigger and meaner.

I love the way it caught SB's hammer in the first fight... I think I'm in love...
