This is hopeless...
I needed to use long blades or samurai swords on this bot...

Tested vs Copyright Infringement and lost all its weapons before CI lost one...

Doesn't look terribly bad. Maybe it's the normals.

This is why converting DSL to stock is a pretty tough idea to start with. :P

Try doing a wedged version with an angled weapon setup.

Well, Flight Instructor DOES have a wedge. You could pretty much say that it will look like a juggler as a HW, but with swords. Angle the setup slightly downward, and slightly angle the swords upward. See if that works. :P

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #245 on:** December 14, 2010, 06:13:13 AM »

I'll try that.
In the mean time, just found this:

Yeah, It fails but oh well.

DP:

Need to tweak wedges but it's quite flanky anyway.

FLight instructor eh...

BETTER ! MAKE IT A TRINITY HELICOPTER !

G.K. · « **Reply #248 on:** December 14, 2010, 10:58:30 AM »

Which I'll not allow. I'm kinda sketchy on this even. SM, you have to change your irons for something or I'll not accept it.

Pwnator · « **Reply #249 on:** December 15, 2010, 03:05:29 AM »

Damn, this is tough. Blades, maybe?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #250 on:** December 15, 2010, 06:53:29 AM »

Next up I'm trying a Juggler using blades.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #251 on:** December 15, 2010, 07:55:53 AM »

DP: This is hopeless! I KLONED CTK but with blades and LBP VS Tsunami in a 3 min match where I juggled it the WHOLE time!

Pwnator · « **Reply #252 on:** December 15, 2010, 08:01:05 AM »

Yeah, the previous one's better. Just replace the irons with something else. XD

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #253 on:** December 15, 2010, 08:02:15 AM »

The previous one is just as bad though...

Pwnator · « **Reply #254 on:** December 15, 2010, 08:05:37 AM »

O_O

I was expecting its flankiness to make it better somehow. XD

How about making it a flipper hybrid?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #255 on:** December 15, 2010, 08:14:59 AM »

Not allowed...
Also, check out battleshots.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #256 on:** December 17, 2010, 11:19:33 PM »

You might have better luck if the blades were more horizontal. Right now bots will tend to sit on top of them and they won't do any damage. Also, if the weapons spin inwards like I think they do, the normals are facing the wrong way.

Possibility: If you can't outweapon your opponent, try to hit their weak spot. Maybe make a long undercutting HS designed to hit motors and wheels, like my Trial or Charybdis.

Felt like I needed to dust off my popup skillz, here's Metal on Fire:

DSA
16 Razors
3 Blacks

Scorpion · « **Reply #258 on:** December 30, 2010, 11:40:06 AM »

Surely other wedged bots are just gonna get stuck on the castors?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #259 on:** December 30, 2010, 11:49:04 AM »

Nope:

Casters should really stick out more for better protection but they protect the bot enough to KO most things.
