It's an improvement. There's still some misalignment on the top panel which you could fix, but it's a fair bit cleaner than it was. I agree with Badnik though the weapon feels a bit DSL-S ish to me. In particular the use of razors. It's a pretty silly complaint, but I think it would look (and possibly perform) better if you used pole spikes or something instead of razors. Aesthetics matter more in IRL than they do in other build styles, and razors are pretty ugly components. Switching them out would make the bot look a lot nicer I feel.

True. Razors look and would be fragile In Real Life (IRL)

I wanted to try something different.

395 KG, 3 mm. Titanium, 2 large typhoon teeth, and 2 E batteries.

Don't worry, there's a good bot on the way...

From what I can tell it is a MW overhead with a 4 mag and 2 Astros, correct? Because that isn't really unique, also you can use 2 red batteries instead because then you got 10 more kilos to work with

You mean "red batteries" as in "battlepacks" right?

Sorry I didn't post internals of this bot, but...
name's E.P.I.X. Here's the paint job.
 
screenshot_3.bmp

10 mm. Steel, 4 npc fasts for drive, lifting forks on 2 of those pneumatic burst motors, 4 E batteries, and 3 Tornado wedges.
Better than it looks, so don't underestimate it.

Did you stack the wedges? Also
, also what do you have specifically for the bursts? Are they Shorts, mediums, or wide mediums?

They are wide-mediums, I think. They're definitely not short-mediums.
...and the Tornado wedges aren't stacked. They're put together legally, IRL-style.
Do you like the paintjob?

It's meh, also the arms are terrible looking, maybe downgrade the armor to titanium 10 or aluminum 10 and make the lifting arms smaller or get rid of the spike strips and replace them with wedgelets because they look uggo

Wait until if flips you.

I'm already creating a bot with better lifter arms. Wait for that one.

I think that's easy to come by, but it's actually really hard!

Hey, TCRR, how exactly did Breaking Dawn lose in that tournament you hosted? Did it get flipped over?

Funny, how my DSL IRL bots are never destroyed... They either get immobilized or pitted! :)
