| *The Average Level: A person who has some knowledge of building bots but is neither a good or a bad one. Their design still has a lot of building flaws, and is beaten easily in tournaments, though not as much as the Beginner. A lot of members fall into this category and strive to become the Above Average Builder. | | *The Average Level: A person who has some knowledge of building bots but is neither a good or a bad one.

− | *The Intermediate Level: Builders that are no slouch when it comes to building bots. Builder knows all the basics of building in RA2 and most of the [[Glitches]], Weapon ratios, etc. Empty space is low to average, weapons are effective, drive is effective, and armor and power choices are more than decent. Usually [[Innovationalists]] like [[Gigafrost]], [[Serge]], and [[Madiaba]] fall into this category, but this does not relate to their [[Modding Skills]]. No surprise if they soon become Experienced builders within a short time span. | + | *The Intermediate Level: Builders that are no slouch when it comes to building bots.

− | *The Experienced Level: The bot builder knows the ins and outs of bot building, are fenominal bot creators, and most if not all of their designs are both eccentric as well as effective. They are similar to the Intermediate builders with their difference being in that they have near perfect designs in every aspect. [[ACAMS]], [[Clickbeetle]], [[Starcore]] (very experienced) and [[Psycolone]] are some good examples of Experienced builders. These builders also know just about all of the glitches in stock bot building as well as their functions. | + | *The Experienced Level: The bot builder knows the ins and outs of bot building, are phenomenal bot creators, and most if not all of their designs are both eccentric as well as effective. They are similar to the Intermediate builders with their difference being in that they have much cleaner designs which are generally more effective. [[ACAMS]] and [[Starcore]] are some good examples of Experienced builders. These builders also know just about all of the glitches in stock bot building as well as their functions. Other examples include [[The Ounce]] and [[Virus Bomb]] |
− | *The Perfect Builder: Simply put, a bot builder who can/has built a bot or bots that are unbeatable by any means. Chassis design and weapon setup is flawless. Armor choice and wheel setup is perfect, and every aspect of it was built not only to win, but to always win. No exceptions. | + | *The Expert Builder: These kinds of builders strive to be the best and push the limits of the game past what has been done. Every bot is designed to not lose, as these builders are the closest to achieving the perfect bot. Breaking records and developing new techniques are what make these builders the experts. Examples include [[Sage]], [[Infiniteinertia]], [[Clickbeetle]], [[Pyscolone]], and [[Pwnator]]. [[r0b0sh4rk]] and [[Scrap daddy]] could also be considered experts, as they are above the Experienced level. |

[[InfiniteInertia]] and [[Sage]] came close when [[Absolute Chaos]] was developed, but eventually even that bot was beaten. No one has this level yet. |
