Tools were used to make up for the shortcomings of humans.
Weapons were an extension of one's arms, while transportation was a replacement for one's legs. While Eich's combat professionalism was becoming more and more standardized and common, magic armors, as well as enhanced weapons, were also supplements for the job system.
There were only two kinds of design ideas. One was to enhance the user's advantages, and the other was to make up for the user's shortcomings.
Both could be taken care of, but there would definitely be a focus.
Specialized and customized magic armors were mostly designed to enhance the user's advantages, because in the face of all kinds of complicated battlefield situations, strengthening oneself was always the way to go. The more customized a magic armor was for someone, the more it would enhance their abilities and unique talents.
A specialized magic armor for ace players might not have the best performance, but it was definitely the most tailored and suitable for them.
But for the preparation for the upcoming hunting battle, there was not enough time and resources to prepare a specialized magic armor that could enhance one's advantages. It was better to take the environment into consideration and make a mass-produced magic armor that could make up for the shortcomings.
In the underground cave area, the environment was complicated and the vision was dim. Because no one had cleaned it up before, there was probably not even a flat road.
If a battle really started here, the terrain would be the biggest negative factor. Then, as long as this factor could be overcome, the combat power of the entire team would naturally be enhanced.
Light Warrior Rock Climbing Fighter Type 1 (PT1) was the "answer" that the production line had been mass-produced recently.
Their strong, deformed metal arms gave them a powerful grip. The magnetic steel nails shot out from the spray gun nailed them to the top of the rock wall. As the steel ropes swayed, the rock climbers slid neatly in the air above the battlefield.
Shoot the steel nails, fix the fulcrum, shake the cables, and use centrifugal force to throw out the magic armor to fix the next fulcrum.
Wasn't it familiar? After all, Rorschach was the designer, and this was his first work after studying magic armor for three years.
"Using the Cliff Walker as a template, this is a highly mobile mountain magic armor that strengthens the upper limbs. If we can occupy the sky of the hunting ground, then the hunting ground will be completely suppressed."
Magic armor could be used to make up for the shortcomings of a profession and enhance their advantages. Naturally, it could also model the abilities and fighting style of a profession.
Although the reaction speed of the Cliff Walker in the form of magic armor was less than one-third of that of a true professional, the Cliff Walker's enormous body size and thicker rope gave it sufficient mobility. Not only was it not limited by physical strength, it wasn't that much slower than Roxia in standard time.
At this moment, his original mobility did not have a chance to show off in battle. Instead, it shone brightly when he was running away.
Along the way, the group of demonic armors only surpassed the others. No other group could keep up with their speed, even if it was just their line of sight.
However, Su Nana was Rorschach's ranger mentor and the person who taught the Cliff Walker job. She had a lot of opinions about these steel lumps.
"Rorschach, as long as you tell the outside world that these things are based on Cliff Walkers, I won't acknowledge you as my disciple!"
Rorschach didn't want to have another master of the same age as him, but of course, he wouldn't say it out loud.
In fact, he was also troubled by something.
"Look, there are so many gorillas flying in the sky!"
Yes, in terms of appearance, in order to have enough grip strength, the arms that were so strong that they were deformed extended all the way to the knees. In order to reduce the weight, they even used the slimmest parts of their lower limbs. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a gorilla standing upright.
Coupled with the way they were constantly swaying while dragging the rope, it looked even more like one.
Originally, the cliff elves were flying between the rock walls of the underground world. Their agile and beautiful dance had now become a group of steel gorillas running wildly, dragging down a piece of rock from time to time.
Even if Su Nanna didn't say it, Rorschach himself couldn't afford to lose face. If he really said that these were the original Cliff Walkers, the angry black-blood elves would probably come knocking on his door.
After all, everyone knew that the long-eared elves valued face and elegance more than anything else.
"After all, it's the original model. The improved model should look better."
Rorschach said something that even he didn't believe. Although he also had the bloodline of an elf, he was indeed a designer who tended to be more functional. He wouldn't waste materials on balance for the sake of appearance and add unnecessary weight.
"Boom!"
But even in midair above the rock walls, the escape route wasn't smooth.
Isabella's magic armor suddenly emitted smoke and then instantly cracked. But at the same time, several steel nails shot out, and the rope directly wrapped around the falling "Rope Gorilla" (the Church's private term).
"Give up. The right arm is overloaded and falling apart. There's also an error in the engine's signal. The power pipeline is overloaded and damaged as much as 36%. Tsk, it's hopeless. Let go. "
Isabella's voice came from within. Then, the other magic armors followed her instructions and let go of the rope.
The next moment, the former magic armor turned into a huge piece of scrap metal and fell down. A large snow-white bat flew out from the open cockpit with a bag of disks in its mouth.
"Huh? You still remembered to bring the data. Not bad, not bad. Isabella, I've changed my opinion of you. "
Rorschach turned around and saw this scene. He couldn't help but sigh. As expected of the most senior descender of the Game Church. She usually looked unreliable, but at critical moments, she was very reliable.
The development and perfection of the magic armor wasn't a job that could be done overnight. Every failed or damaged experimental model would provide important experimental data and information. Then, the designer would adjust and strengthen the magic armor based on the feedback from the various data and finally create a model that could withstand any test.
With the experimental data of problems and malfunctions on the battlefield, the improvement of the next generation of magic armor would naturally be targeted and greatly improved.
Seeing that Isabella still remembered to bring the experimental data, Rorschach was somewhat touched.
"Don't be silly. That must be a game disk."
“+1。”
“+2。”
"Tsk. Why did you all say it out loud? I was planning to open a bet and let you all bet on what's inside."
The discussion of his teammates in the Divine Power Network and the smug and shameless bat made Rorschach feel that he was still too young.
[Be serious. Run for your lives now!]
On the other hand, the God of Games who was watching the scene was so nervous that she almost couldn't stand it. Not only were all her belongings here, but all her friends and family were here as well. She could understand the situation on the outside, and she was even more nervous than everyone else present.
The situation wasn't looking good. This wasn't the first 'Rope Gorilla' to be damaged — only five out of the eight magic armors that came in were left intact.
It wasn't that Rorschach's design had a serious flaw such that more than half of the magic armors self-destructed as soon as they entered the battlefield, but the current situation was a little special.
Repeatedly ejecting steel spikes to secure points, using ropes to forcefully move through the air, and using artificial AI to adjust the movement technique were all very taxing on the body and energy.
In the original design of the magic armor, such movement was only meant for ambushes and short battles, and theoretically, it shouldn't last more than eight minutes.
But now, it had been running at full power for more than twenty minutes. Only Isabella's magic armor had self-destructed due to overloading, which was already quite a bit beyond the design requirements.
Su Xinqi's plane had been destroyed due to a sudden falling rock. Yep, it was when a rock suddenly fell from the sky and smashed into her face. If it weren't for the fact that her companions had reacted quickly enough, she would have died already … Roxia had already noticed that this half-beast half-elf girl had always been quite unlucky.
Matt's magic armor had been shot through by a marksman below. The 'hunters' below had probably seen the 'invaders' in the air and simply struck first to gain the upper hand.
In return, Rorschach's group didn't do anything other than turn off the communication devices that had been activated along the way, allowing the hunters to enjoy the joy of repelling their 'competitors' … and hunting to their heart's content.
Needless to say, as they approached the exit, Rorschach's group's success rate in activating the warning increased considerably, and they even saw several of their colleagues running for their lives.
They probably guessed something, or had a way to contact the outside world.
And as he watched the situation below, Rorschach had his own judgment.
