Talk:Battlepod

I don't think that adding the Battlepod from Grinchlin Assault is a good idea, yeah, it has the 'boss theme' playing during the fight but he is just another Battlepod. Not really a boss. What do you think about this, Novaster? - Sir Onox

It's not just another battlepod - it's much larger and has a lot of respawning adds and appears as the "same guy" with the same abilities every time (well as far as I know), and yeah, it has the boss music (a factor I don't really like for theme reasons but other editors like to consider it as a factor). Sure, sk just calls it a "battlepod," but we also saw this issue with the new "corrupted" tortos, so it's one of those cases where you have to consider more factors. It's "the really really big guy at the end of it all," and you the only way to get bossier than that in SK is to have token drops - hence I've described it as "miniboss." This page has it under "notable" battle pods, and it is definitely "notable." I honestly don't know why it isn't on the boss page yet, when other entities like the Ironwood Sentinel are - I mean, same logic. "It's just another (larger) lumber." The last time I tried to improve the boss page, one editor went to the forums about it, only a few people talked about it, and edits were made against what the general community wanted. I would definitely leave this one alone, besides completing the ? fields when the event rolls around again. I would like to return to the boss page with a clear set of identification rules we all agree on regarding entities like this battlepod, the ironwood sentinel, tortodrones, the punkin king, and so on. But not right now I have candy. -Novaster 14:29, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
