Much improved, Hook In Mouth 2:



2 Blacks and DSA, 8 razorz and 8 bear claws, more effective caster armour, and front capable of trapping spinners now.
The wedges are also MUCH better now (the ones on the first version were meh at best), in testing, neglected watterbug manages to flip itself over from going over the wedges so fast, which was quite funny to watch.

Not a tri-bar, stick with a DSL bar, but yes shorter.
Or even better, switch to a Large disc and give it much moar weaponry.

Not if I only gain 1 kg, I can't do anything with it. In fact, a larger chassis has more HP, so if I can't gain enough for another castor, then it actually makes the bot worse.
Fair point, but there is definitely room for improvement, it is far from the best MW HS around

Not everyone can be the best, Vertigo. And how much experience have the best had compared to TRB?
Everyone can be, or at least very close, given enough effort.
Making excuses to not even try like you seem to be doing is pathetic though.

Intresting idea, but it looks like it'll be a havok bomb to me.

Had somebody not came in the day before we were due to pick it up and made the guy a better offer, I'd be having a mustang as my first car  :(

Really, what makes a robot interesting to me is the skin.
Really? Ok then, i guess...

Nar's made a good point IMO.

Personally, I just build what comes to my mind though XD

Razorz increase the amount of "piercing" damage the weapons placed on them do, and, as razorz have such high piercing values, razorz are the best choice to put on flails.

The only reason I can think of snapper loading the drivetrain is saving weight by reducing the chassis.
Spin motors on axles spin faster.

Inf, no offense, just wondering, what are you using all your weight on? I don't use any snapper loaded stuff on my bot and I easily have leftover weight.
The snappers will be what's making it heavier.
Shame about the havok inf, that looks like a beast.

Hmmmm, well here's a hammer/side hammer hybrid:



Bit of a fail as is though sadly, I might try downgrading to 2WD and try to use the weight saved from that to improve it, if that's seen as a good idea?

Yeah, that is a caster on the bottom.
I'll look at improving it, and post an update soon.

But MM, you say it'd be a good idea to make it invertible?
Isn't that kinda pointless, considering the wedge would really stop it from being effective when inverted?

Looks like something Marty would build or kinda like this

Still cool though...

How's the exposed chassis do? I'd drop a couple of teeth for a bit of protection but that's just me.
Urgh, I hate it when somebody beats me to it.

Anyway, the teeth pretty much cover it from the front, the back could be a problem though i guess if it doesn't self right fast enough after being flipped.
I might look into doing that.

This is an HS, more precisely an undercutter.
???
Erm, yes, correct....are you o.k Nar?

He just asked what was that bot:

And I am messing around with a VS or Gut Ripper.
Looks to me more like he was answering you, when you said:

Now try something else, or become a HS specialist. Your choice.

Saying that he was working on a VS / gut ripper.
