nice robot "booby" ;p

can't say I know much about ironforge though, but I can imagine the weapons' short range may be an issue hitting things? I'd imagine it'dd be fast at least

It's not too much of an issue, but the problem is that anything longer and it starts hitting the floor. Also it's not that fast compared to everything else in Ironforge, since literally every bot in Ironforge is fast as balls.

Definitely look into getting the drum/thing in a place where it'll be able to start hitting things effectively, you could make the chassis higher and have the back sorta wedged or something.

Yeah wtf? Booby? Bot looks decent though.

As people have explained, it has no reach. Considering you have a srimech, you can just make a bigger drum and place it higher.

put them motors outside if needed.

Previous bot is still being tweaked, however I concocted this thing

Somehow a SHW

I got it that it was a rammer, yes. But why this weapon system ? You know them daos or jians or whatever this Chinese sword/polearm is called (i dont remembeeeerrrrr) have normals and only do damage with the blade's edge right ?

Would be intredasting if you'd make it into a trapper though. So you get your enemies stuck between both blades.

I did not know that. Balls. I like your idea though, I'll get on that at some point.

i like the look
can't imagine it'd fight too well though :P

mw right? what drive?

It's actually a HW because spamming extenders and crap takes up a lot of weight. Using blackbird drive. And you're not wrong, it's terrible in combat.

Looks cool, but can't help thinking it'd look better with a smaller axe head and a scoop/plow/wedge on the front instead of the spikes.

I feel as though the spikes kinda ruin it but I needed to get the weight up. Improvement?
Title: Re: Boby's Ironforge Showcase
Post by: Avalanche on July 27, 2015, 07:17:15 AM
Looks good, but too many spikes! Remove some and use Dark Extenders for a stronger wedge. Otherwise, looks good.
Title: Re: Boby's Ironforge Showcase
Post by: G.K. on July 27, 2015, 08:01:17 AM
A lot better. The only problem with the spikes, imo, is that they're too long. That's one thing I think IF lacks - a really short spike like the Lightning spike or Carrot. If you can find some way round that it'd look real nice.

It's the original chassis because I thought it was unique and it made it easier to stick the bear on it again.

Thanks breh. You want it for the AI pack or nah?

did you changed the armors ? stock armor =/= ironforge armor

also rebuild that chassis. and it needs frontal defense...
Title: Re: Boby's Ironforge Showcase
Post by: Reier on August 04, 2015, 03:11:22 PM
boby its kind of neat but it looks a bit weak for the pack
it does need a new chassis, nary is right. hammers need a buttload of front armor

Certainly

Fair enough, pretty much what I assumed. I'll see to the chassis and things.

They're pretty solid, nothing special. About the best I can do with a VS.
