HMS General Discussion

It's not great, just usable. Third Tier, say. 10 Heavy isn't a weight disk an attacker should use though Wink

I don't have enough to lend out atm, and I don't know if I ever really will, and I doubt people want to be using phantom fox in a competitive situation, haha. Plus, launchers. Confused That said, perhaps at some point with help from a few people I could throw something small together.


If I'm remembering correctly, you can stock up on launchers for cheap by buying the overly-abundant Saint Beasts(excluding Dragoon MS).

I used 10 Balance, not 10 Heavy... I think I wrote Heavy because of reading about Driger in another thread simultaneously, haha.

I would've used 10 Wide but I only have sixes and eights. Unhappy
Yeah, I've already bought a gaia dragoon MS for that second launcher (and Circle Heavy is decent enough).

Get Wide Defense Tongue_out
I have a Wide Defense on the way, along with a bunch of other neat things... my collection will be a lot fatter very shortly. Wink

It's funny, I actually have my ideal HMS combo already, but I don't even own a launcher, hahahahahaaaa ; ;

One of these days I'll just buy a 4set of the cheap saint beast starters and I'll be set.
Sorry guys but would you mind not talking about plastics here. That felt so weird saying that to a mod.
Isn't your ideal HMS Combo just

AR: Circle Upper
WD: Circle Heavy
RC: Metal Change Core

?

Just do it, heck, you can a set of two with the sonokong neo customize grip for like $23, or just get draciel MS for the 15g circle wide and it's like $7.

Ultra: it was a side conversation while we were discussing HMS.
Well, that's one of them, but I actually really like the wobble combo I got from roux today, too!

Neo customize what huh when did this happen so cheap

I already have a 15g circle wide.
It's the one nocto was talking about over in the beywiki photo thread. Read about it there, because it's not quite the same, haha.
Ohh, that one. Doesn't look much like the TT one, but a grip is a grip! I will definitely pick one of those up, then...
I should look at it too, to be honest, I'm kind of annoyed that I bought both the beyblades it comes with before realising it existed Uncertain

Looks like you don't need a round shell MS for the grip since it already has the finger slots.

I don't think the round shell grip works without already having a customize grip. It needs a part from the customize grip.
Yeah, it needs the launcher attachment part, but the actual grip itself when with that part is very useful.
Correct me if I'm wrong, Ive been watching some Driger Gt vids and I think that the GFC has a similar speed to RF and GFC/UM has a speed similar to R2F but with more controllability.
R2F is not that fast.

You should add a bit more substance to your post than that, or you'll be reprimanded.
To set the record straight, no tip has ever been made that is as easy to control, with that level of speed, as GFCUM. Uriel 2's tip is faster, but nigh uncontrollable in comparison.

Takara did right with GFCUM, and then decided to never do it again.
Or at least not yet...

The comparison I've seen thrown around recently is that Zero-G is to MFB as HMS was to plastics. If this turns out to be a fair comparison, then perhaps a GFCUM-like tip is in our future! Smile
RCF/GCF LETS GOOOO

But yeah, once you get hooked on to the insane speed and control of GCFUV, you never want to turn back. Losing it is like losing the meaning of true attack.
I noticed that tons (about 94%) of MFB players cannot retain a proper flower pattern with RF/R2F/LRF. Is that due to the design of the tip, or the fault of the player? I'm thinking it's the latter because Kai-V said something about Italian players having excellent flower patterns...
I can do flower pattern just fine, though I do admit to sometimes messing up and smashing into walls or just completely derping and doing a straight shot.

I'd say it's the player, flower patterns are definitely possible with those tips, and even more so (higher control oh yeah) with the GFCs.
