Use Razors for Hyperblade 2, and YFM can use smaller wheels. but aside from that, they're good.

Change the weapons on underkill and hyperblade, the weapons you are using have normals.

change weapons? ok, but what are normals actually?

as for YFM, i don't know about smaller wheels. i had them before and the driving was less. and there is the weight of wheels i need to look at.

tried smaller wheels on YFM. i just destroyed the speed and control. much lower turn speed. others were updated.



and i still want to know what normals are.

"having normals" means that a component only does damage in certain directions.  Examples: pole spikes and saw blades.  It's a problem because this generally reduces damage output, even if the weapon is swung in the correct direction.


I think you need longer weapons to make a dangerous undercutter.  I would use less front armor on YFM (Piglets are durable enough) and use a big enough weapon to hit under HS's unscathed.  But it does look good against rammers and possibly popups if you had weapons on the bottom of the disc.


The VS looks good but unstable.  I would use lighter wheels and try to get some static (non-hinged) front supports.

haven't been busy with any of the old bots. made a FW for TX his tourney. and now my video card is breaking down (display driver suddenly stops and the screen starts flashing. artaffects show up and then that monster of a BlueScreen. reinstalled drivers, did nothing. now waiting for new videocard to arrive) so i won't be doing much anyway. was still able to get this tho.



i like drum spinners =D
armour is steel 3

Disregard FOTEPX he's just being a noob here

Also, steel 3 is a fail armor, and multi-extenders aren't good outside the chassis.

ok, so what armour would be better to use?
as for the ME's, i know it is bad, but was best i could use to keep the drum off of the ground. i can agree on this bot needing some good upgrading, mainly have to wait for my new graphics card now.

Best armors are Ti and Plastic. All of Titanium is awesome exceptd Ti 3 that is average, all of plastic is good  exceptd Plastic 1, all of Alu fails and all of Steel fails excepted 5mm Steel that is pretty good.

Just divide the armor values by the weight they show and you'll know what are the best.
