Ti 3 seems like a bit overkill. I think you can go with Pl5 and have more weight to work with.

Would look more structurally sound with some vertical supports on the weapon.

I feel like you could find a better use of weight than the beaters on that HS, maybe increase chassis armour or add some armour plates to deal with popups.
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**

I'm liking the skinning on the VS, but something about it seems off.

It does need a little more support for the disc, but it seems, I dunno, a little narrow as well?

The blade is too high, the drive is too low

Blade's still pretty high. any low bot will get under you.

You don't need to put it ultra low, but i think having the blade at half the height it is now will be fine.

Drive seems too wide and you'll overkill on turnspeed. If you can attach your drive directly to the disc with the various NPC's available, or just use a lighter extender than a 6kg titanium sheet.

1. use a half sheet attached directly to the chassis instead of a dsl disc
2. attach the perm to the chassis with a multiextender

It has PL3, I prioritize entering ADOTIRL.
Reason for the large chassis is for stability
Edit: Uses a flatmotor and the overkill burst.

You could probably use a couple of wedgelets or even just angle extenders because I think you won't be able to get robots into your blade in VS mode.

I agree. With the half moon style supports, it gets difficult for a VS to hit anything low. I used wedgelets on BBS and most bots could still get under.
