Overview
This will show you a fairly decent hovercraft I quickly put together.for this design you should have these basic components:2 Tier 4 SMG2 Tier 6 SMG1 Tier 8 SMG2 Tier 2 Electro Shields2 Tier 3 Electro Shields3 Tier 4 Electro Shields2 Tier 7 Electro Shields2 Tier 8 Electro Shields14 Tier 3 Hover Blades
Introduction
Today I will show you how to build a T6 Hovercraft that has high attack, defense, and handling. This Bot costs around 93,000 RP using the exact parts I used. However, I would recommend using more of, or even higher tier armor cubes to improve survivability. Please note that: I was creating this on a budget and using leftover parts.
Step 1
First off we begin by using T6 armor cubes to create a base to place a few of our hoverblades on. Then We will surround that area with armor cubes (recommended to use higher than T1).
Step 2
Then we will place some more hoverblades at the corners. Adding these will greatly improve our stability and handling.
Step 3
Next I have added some tier 4 electro shields to add defense at the front of the vehicle. as well as placed the pilot’s seat towards the center and created a basic box to surround it.
Step 4
Next I have added a layer of armor over the main hoverblades to protect them and give us room to place other cubes. I have also added some tier 3 electro shields. However you should not place those because I will remove them as it will not help the design.
Next shows the rear of the vehicle detailing the back of the pilot’s seat box.
Next shows the front of the vehicle with 4 more electro shields added. These will provide sufficient frontal defense.
Step 5
Next we have added 2 tier 8 electro shields. these will help defend against attacks from the side.
Next add 2 t7 electro shields to further improve side defense.
Next details the adding of a scanner, receiver, and jammer (all t5).
Step 6
Next we add the offensive setup and SMG’s. The t8 gun will be placed on top in the center (the t8 gun will provide extra attack. if you do not have t8 smg’s feel free to supplement it with your highest tier gun). The 2 t4 SMG’s will be placed near the t8 one on the supports. The 2 t6 SMG’s will be placed on the lower area in the front (supplement with lower tier guns if needed). add more or even higher tier guns if you so desire.
After one match, I decided to add one final electro shield to the top to better protect the pilot’s seat.
Conclusion
In one, halfhearted, quick match, I scored 3 kills and 7 assists. I think it is important to mention that there are flaws with this design, as with all designs anyway. This bot’s shortcoming is at it’s rear because it has no electro shields there. But it will provide a decent bot to get you sufficient pay.
Add higher tier hoverblades and add thrusters for more speed. Please let me know of any design improvements or if you think that it works well. This is a work in progress and will be updated when I have made design changes. Thanks for reading!
