Here's a Dual Perm version of Diamond Cutter. 1 NPC fast with hypnos, 2 ants, Plastic 3, and 2 Tite Half-sheets for protection underneath.

Pretty good but... That looks a lot like Urjak's

2 ants? You really need atleast 3 of them

EDIT: Forget that, I thought it was 2WD

Oh you...

No, It isn't Urjak's. Might be a lazy attempt at improving an already good bot, but it's not Urjaks.

Only 1 drive motor.

External dual perm is a lot better, even if that makes it more of a Weapon Array clone.

Naryar · « **Reply #1006 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:06:44 PM »

How can you be both lazy and both attempt to improve Gametechmods's shell spinner specialist bot ?

I think he meant he's trying to improve from Diamond Cutter.

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1008 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:13:53 PM »

Yeah, basically. But, I'm not sure if it's better or not. I'll test it now.

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1009 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:20:27 PM »

DP

The faster spin speed seemed to increase longevity, but actually somehow DECREASE total damage.

Naryar · « **Reply #1010 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:30:59 PM »

Maybe because a dual perm is slower than a six mag...

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1011 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:32:31 PM »

And yet people still continue to use Dual Perms when a 6 mag is truly better in terms of speed. From now on, i'm ONLY going to use Dual-Perms on SHW's. 6-mag seems a lot better for a HW in the tests.

Naryar · « **Reply #1012 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:34:37 PM »

6 mag is seemingly better for relatively light weapon setups, because of more maxspeed. Dual perm is for heavy duty HS.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1013 on:** January 29, 2011, 01:39:08 PM »

Dual Perm is better because you can mount it externally with 8000 HP, and bumbles better after getting wedged with 60 torque.

The 35 torque and 400 HP 6 mag is not the best for surviving against wedges. Even if it can result in winning the de-weapon war against another shell.

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1014 on:** February 06, 2011, 05:46:50 AM »

Would be able to take out 3 Caesiums, but the lagging and havoks were unbearable. (In case anyone's wondering, Rockhouse was the beta name for Diamond Cutter EVO)

Pwnator · « **Reply #1015 on:** February 06, 2011, 05:56:05 AM »

And I bet about a third of the time both Caesiums were bumping into each other as well. That makes it at least better than a Caesium and a third. But still cool. :P

Seems too specialized against FSS, though.

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1016 on:** February 06, 2011, 06:00:31 AM »

Well As you can see, I had about half of my weaponry left, so I think it's about roughly as powerful as 2 caesiums.

Yes, I know it's a bit too specialized against FSS, and I know I should have angled shell to help combat wedges, but this version of Diamond Cutter is just a test to see how many weapons I can get onto there whilst still being effective.

Pwnator · « **Reply #1017 on:** February 06, 2011, 06:06:03 AM »

Angled shell barely help at fighting wedges. Bottom armor does. :P

And yes, I noticed that you had half your weaponry left PLUS the fact that both Caesiums were very close to each other, meaning they were bumping into each other once in a while, so not all of the damage came from you. Not that I'm saying it sucks. A 36-macer can trash 2 24-irons. XD

FOTEPX · « **Reply #1018 on:** February 06, 2011, 06:14:08 AM »

So, what you're saying is, 24 beaters + 24 razors <<< 16 beaters + 16 maces?

Pwnator · « **Reply #1019 on:** February 06, 2011, 06:17:05 AM »

I'm not a shell spinner specialist. :P

You can try it out yourself, though. XD
