How about razored arms coming out from the sides for additional stability and some motor protection?

Really? A lot of the games I'd gladly take if they're free, but I could easily catalog all of the games there under "I'd buy it even under a budget" or "Maybe next time".
Having $4.98 left is a pretty tight budget though :< 603

Snapper loading IS supposed to get rid of the mesh issues. In this case you have to snapper load it twice - load it out, hover a motor, run any motor to return the extender back and attach the hovered motor, load it out again and attach the second motor. Yeah, it takes some patience as it occasionally loads the extender to the exact location as your hovered motor, but it pays off in the end.

Uhhh snapper load? Building an uber HS is always about minimizing extender work and maximizing damage potential while adding some armor to improve longevity, if available.
So yeah, it can dish out some nice damage now, but its drive is exposed. And I might say the chassis looks a bit too tall, but that's probably my eyes' fault. 607

Why the 40cms for the drive?
But yeah you need to toy around with the setups a little more so you can maximize the weight. 608

I'm digging it. Just rotate the razors properly so that all will hit at the same time.

Find a way to lower the motor. You could expand the chassis and turn the servo sideways since you have the weight. If that doesn't work, a centered Snapper II doesn't hurt.

I forgot to mention. That setup might require some axle loading (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=7903.0), but here's what it should look like:
[Edit] Turns out you don't need axle loading, but yeah it's still a neat trick. 611

newbie my ass that thing looks pretty cool
Next step would be replacing that disk with 2 extenders (and 2 more to maintain the position of the plow). That would mean moving the servo slightly off-center, but that means you could place the servo and Snapper2 side by side and save chassis weight. but seriously that's pretty good for a first bot 612

Swap the motors around. The drive should be doing the lifting while the weapon motors gently force the opponent up.

This one took longer to build than the MW for obvious reasons. Also, I can't test it because it teleports out of the arena when the piston gets hit by something as insignificant as a ramplate. welp 616

The weapons shouldn't move the bot at all, even if you double the amount of motors. Check if the weapons touch the ground.
As for the barely-damaging part, it's because the plows are blocking the way and/or the reach is too short. So either rotate the weapons upwards a notch or raise it all up. Or find a new stabilizer setup so the plows are slightly lower. 617

Uh... you're on a forum with its services paid by someone else. And that person assigned moderating duties to some other people. And they're tasked to clean up the crap and prevent fights from occurring in general.
So yeah, you have to care about what the others say about you. 618

You're not using 20/25cm casters on the HW O:
And I might use an iron instead of the 20cm + razor as a weapon breaker, but then razors <3 620
