I got it in Geared Lost Scrapyard, unfortunately, I didn't have any magnifiers since I was just trying to finish all of the boosted levels :(
But why was the screen recording so laggy bruh T_T
What if the robots are humans that transferred their minds to the hulls (Crawlers, Drivers, Tanks, Dashers, etc.)
Maybe the cores are a type of crystal that humanity found. These cores have the abilities to be a power source and a medium for the brain to transfer through.
Some robots have Greater Cores, cores that has a human mind transferred inside of it.
A hull with a Greater Core can control the hull it is in while having the consciousness of it's past body (aka the human it once was).
Lesser Cores are essentially AI cores, they can think and even have the same level of consciousness but they were artificially made by Greater Core robots and humans.
Some examples/proof:
Example 1: Lost Scrapyard enemies (Box, Spring, Roller, Scraplash, and Dreadnought) are Lesser Core robots, given their description that they were made, some were even scrapped in favor of other machines.
Example 2: Orbitals were "the great minds that made up ideas for Beacon City" (paraphrased from the Orbital's description). Since they seems to have multiple cores, they were likely multiple Lesser Cores put into the hull of the Orbitals.
Example 3: Purveyors are said to be "one of the most common inhabitants of Beacon City" (also paraphrased from the Purveyor's description), they were either Greater Cores or Lesser Cores that lived in Beacon City.
But then there's the Bubblemound... Perhaps they were a data vault? But why would a data vault be inside the Crystal Quarry? The Bubblemound remains unknown...
As we know, the Infection came and infected the machines, including the Lesser Core and maybe even the Greater Core robots.
We're a Greater Core robot, fighting the infected cause we're built different... literally.
Meme by me
Also, does anyone have any advice for taking out a Stridelord? I go slow and steady and I try to keep the Stridelord alone, I'm currently using a dasher with rangers and a spike for additional damage.
Edit: It was actually the 4th sector, not the 3rd, as a comment pointed out. I messed up my sectors, oops.
First it was the 5 Tetherhawks, now it's 4-5 Cyclovanes that jumped me 🥀
Also, I tried going forward at the end of the video (where I got killed) but it didn't let me, I don't know if I didn't move the joystick or if it was a bug.
(Ignore the ad at the end)
Is the bot in the corner just a Workshop and unarmed version of the Lurkstrider in the Crystal Quarry?
Sorry for the unclear image, I died before taking a clear screenshot, also, did anyone else see this bot too?
I put in a promo code and it gave me 287 Pure-tier surge crystals.
I haven't fused them yet tho :/
Sorry for the bad art, I'm not exactly an artist. Especially for the Tank, I can't find any good picture of a Tank hull and the ones I find is low quality :(
I got the idea because I wondered why a Drill drops a spike instead of you know, a drill?
Now that I think about it, there's not exactly an enemy in-between Crystal Quarry and Icy Hollow (Beacon City and Desolate Drains) that has drills... Pretty weird to have a weapon that needs to be fused to have a Pure and Toxic variant, but oh well :/
Also, I had to name it Driller because there's already an enemy named Drill, which pisses me off >:(
FOUR Tetherhawks and a Tunneler bruh
They're jumping me 😭
This has been in my mind for a couple of months now and I finally decided to do it, and yes, I did Version 1 first, it took me over an hour and I didn't even include the tracks because I was too lazy to do so.
