I\'ll do this one more time.
Feel free to post your folder here, if you need advice on modifying it, or you\'d simply like it rated.
You can even showcase your folder just for the heck of it!

If you know me, you\'ll know I\'m nit picky with codes, the thing I\'m always watching out for...just of word of advice.

Also, I\'d like some experienced volunteers to help with the effort, so if you want to rate, just post the word!
Chaow!

Ok, as per your advice, this is my new * folder.

AirShot2 (*)
AirShot3 (**)
CannBall (**)
Sword (LLL)
WideSwrd(LL)
LongSwrd(LLL)
StepSwrd (L)
Rook (*)
TimeBomb (L)
Mine (*)
AreaGrab (L)
RockCube (****)
FstGauge
Salamndr (*)
Fountain (*)
Bolt (*)
GaiaBlad (*)
Poltrgst (G)
FullCust (*)
FoldrBak (*)

I wasn\'t able to go through with all the suggestions because I don\'t have those chips. Rooks only do 100 damage when flung at the enemy with Poltrgst which is weird since they seem to be made from a stronger material than RockCubes. I\'m thinking about throwing in a BlkBomb3 (L) or two just for the sake of it. In case my opponent is a fire type, it\'ll nuke his side and even if he\'s not, it still makes for a pretty powerful crushing tool.

EDIT - I like MstrStyl. It does 800 damage to one target and then does 100 to everything on the field and it autoaims.

[Edited on 3-2-2004 by Pocket]

I understand your fondness of MsterStyle; At one point I was crazy about it, until the novelty wore off, know what I mean?
The new folder seems pretty good; You\'ve eliminated code clashing, except for the lone Poltergeist, which I can see is rather integral to your strategy.
Lone standard chips tend to be not very happy on their own, so replace the rook with another Mine *, or the reverse. Would you consider removing that StepSword for a AreaGrab *? If you obtain one more WideSwrd, be sure to substitute it for that lone AirShot.
A bit lacking in defense; A few Invis * would be nice, but that\'s up to you.
When you obtain the required chips, just follow the advice I gave you earlier, Pocket.
All in all, I like the work you\'ve put into it, Pocket my friend.

7.7/10 -That\'s just my opinion on it. Don\'t forget my earlier suggestions!

[Edited on 4-2-2004 by Zaleon]

I have no idea where to get more WideSwrd (L) chips. I\'ve been using the chip trader and fighting swordy virii. Faqs say that it comes as a default in your folder (which is true) but won\'t tell me where else you can get them (if you can get them anywhere else at all). I doubt I\'ll be able to get another WideSwrd (L).

Aquabug style always provides me with protection at the beginning of the battle either through a barrier or some type of invis shield. That\'s my defence but it only lasts until it runs out(invis) or I get hit(barrier) and I can\'t regenerate these forms of protection.

I\'ll look into more changes. This seems to be a public two person conversation... I wonder if I should PM you instead of posting updates and such.

Volcano A
Volcano A
FireSwrd N
AquaSwrd N
ElecSwrd N
BambSwrd N
Totem3 N
Mine *
AreaGrab *
Recov 120 *
Recov 150 *
Recov 200 *
Recov 200 *
Recov 200 *
FstGauge *
Shadow *
Lava Stage *
Grass Stage *
Snctuary A
Navi +20 *
Navi +20*
Navi +20*
Navi +20*
Salamndr *
Dountain *
Bolt *
GaiaBlad *
Navi +40 *
DarkMan v4 D
FoldrBak *

Too many Navi +X chips, not enough navi chips. Why do you have one of each sword? If you\'re trying to pull off the P.A., I think you should add more of each sword. I think you have too many recover chips if you\'re going to use FoldrBak.

Try this folder! U\'ll see its powerfull ^^

And why more navi chips? They all suck ^^

You want to start rating? Fine with me.
Oh, after more thought, I changed your folder\'s mark from 8 to 7.7.
You don\'t mind do you? Some more suggestions I have, are to make room for several AirSwords (if they comply with the code, that is), as they will prove useful in pushing the foe to the backrow, letting you use the Lance I suggested you put in, then finishing the combo with the LifeSword. Repeating this is quite effective; 100(AirSword)+130(Lance)+400(LifeSword)=630.

Also, I\'m not quite so sure if you should try to attempt a \'dual theme\', as you have the LifeSword PA going there, yet you want to bring code clashing down upon yourself in order to have the second theme: \'Poltergeisting\'.

Be sure to test the folder thoroughly, Pocket. ;D

Playing another tune, BlaXun, Pocket is quite right. You\'ve too many Navi+ chips, yet only one navi chip.

When used effectively, Navi chips do not \'suck\', my friend. Your folder does not have an apparent theme, and has a little bit of code clashing. Luckily, the majority of chips are * coded.
Personally, I think you should modify your folder to become an N coded ElementSwrd folder. Remove the Darkman v4 and the Navi+\'s, and instead replace them with Attk+30 and Attk+10. Replace the Volcanos, and MasterStyle with AreaGrabs and PanelGrabs, and remove the healing chips for more defense; Invis and Shadows. Take out the Mine and Totem; They don\'t belong in there, my friend. Remove all field altering chips, and stick a FullCust in there somewhere, maybe a FastCust if you wish.

5.7/10 -Minor code clashing, and no sense of theme whatsoever.

Yes, yes I\'m harsh, but don\'t worry about it; I\'m the Simon Cowell of folder rating!

You are definitely not the Simon Cowell of folder rating. You\'re more of a \"Randy Jackson form season one\" of folder rating. To be a Simon Cowell, you\'d need to add more \"What the hell was that?\" type phrases.

I thought airsword and airshots only pushed opponents back one row. I haven\'t had any luck finding Lance chips. I only have one Lance (R).

I\'m no rating genius myself, but BlaXun\'s folder seems a little inconvenient. I mean, you have to hold off waiting for one chip to use all the Navi +x. DarkMan rocks, given, but you\'ll find your missing out by not using others. I can understand using it to defeat the really irritating Defenders or such, but it seems impractical for common Netbattles.

I\'m stealing Zaleon\'s spotlight. I\'ll shut up.:D

I\'ve already had my folder rated. I\'ve not yet made any renovitions. I\'ll get to it any day now.:zzz:

[Edited on 4-2-2004 by AimMan v2.5]

Well, my folder might not be \"that\" usefull against heavy rockman exe 3 players, but I just beat serenade gs and forte gs with it, lemme explain.

I start with the FstGauge (Standard Chip)
Totem3 Is meant for fast recovery,
Darkman V4 with +40+20+20+20 is a deadly finishing combo, if u also have FolderBack you can shuffle again, becuase I also have custom+1 and custom +2 in my NAVICUST I get more chps, so I always have somethi good on my hands,

But I\'ll try your ideas, even though I dont like \"N\"-Folders, I once used it, but \"N\" doesnt have that much great chips, so I had \"A\" and \"N\" and that sucks ^^

Wise suggestions, AimMan v2.5. I\'m willing to share the lime light, btw; I need more raters. You\'re hired!
As for your folder BlaXun, if you\'re focusing on the infamous Darkman +Attk+ combo, then I suggest you focus your folder around it. Increase the Darkman ratio, and, as I said, remove the Totem3; it\'ll just slow you down in the long run. If you are a reasonably skilled netbattler, then you won\'t make mistakes often, meaning you won\'t need recovery. Just insert defensive chips to avoid damge in the first place. Just follow the suggestions I posted earlier, and you\'ll see why it\'s important to avoid code clashing, as well as have a theme.

As for your comments, Pocket, I realized, after some self-evaluation, that you are quite correct; I am a Randy Jackson type folder rater. I\'m just too polite to say \'what the h*** was that?\'.
In any case, I offer constructive criticsm(sp?).
As for your Lance complications, I
believe you can find Lance L\'s in

If I recall correctly...

EDIT: Darn spoiler tags...

[Edited on 4-2-2004 by Zaleon]

i dont have a tru folder yet so im not going to give it out yet but i do like gedden3 chips :muha:

I need more raters.
Currently, the raters are:

Myself
Pocket
AimMan v2.5

As I said, if you want to rate, just post the word.
Keep those folders flowing, please!

Hi everyone. Haven\'t been on for a while, but nobody cares cause I have no friends here except for Zaleon:cry:.

On topic. Here\'s my folder.

Stunning Sensation!

Bolt *
Lightning *
RockCube x4 *
Airshot3 x4 *
Prism x4 H
IceStage * (preset)
Sensor2 x4 H
Metagel3 x4 H
Invis x4 *
FastGauge *
FullGauge *
FolderBak *

Hmm, yes. A very strategical folder. I can see it probably gets the job done fast. I\'d give it an 9. The only problems I see are that:

A. It must require good natural buster skills for destroying enemies, for their only 3/5 chips deal damage. However, this should not be a problem if your natural buster and charge attack are good.

B.A rockcube and stealing chips can sometimes be a dangerous combination. If you are standing in front of a rockcube and an enemy Navi steals spaces, he will continue to endlessly steal spaces and, hurting you 10 each time, eventually destroy you. However, your FolderBak could solve that problem.

Overall, I see no problems with your deck that are not purely circumstancial. It is an original idea. Keep in mind that very powerful H code chips may help your strategy, as they would mix with virtually anything in your deck. I can\'t think of any suggestions off the bat though.

ANyone have any suggestions for powerful H code chips?

Speculation and analysis time!

Judging by this folder, you must be using an elec style of some sort. The IceStage chip preset (to boost the power of your elec chips) must be a hinderance while you\'re fighting (you slip). You might not be able to position your prism or rockcubes in the appropriate area. The only way you could counter this would be if you were using the HubBatch.

I\'ve never seen Bolt or Lightning in action but I think it hits objects on the field (does it destroy them?) and hits the enemies adjacent to the object that was hit (like a reverse geyser). Since you only have two of these chips, this can\'t possibly be the main theme (could it?)

If the Sensor2 chip in combination with the prism chip provides multiple hits, this could be a very good elec folder. You might want to remove one invis chip and take advantage of the 5 mega chip limit imposed on folders (if you\'re using the HubBatch, you can have 2 extra mega chips.)

Thanks for the rating and the advice Aimman v2.5. The lightning and the bolt are the main theme in my folder. Also I forgot to mension(sp?) that to have float shoes on as a extra code in the Navi customizer so you won\'t slip. To anwser your question Pocket about the bolt thing, it hits the objects and does damage to anything around the object. Also, it doens\'t destroy the object. Oh yeah, Pocket, since you told me to add more mega chips in there, what do you suggest me to add?


[Edited on 7-2-2004 by darkfirex]

Sadly, there aren\'t any mega chips with an H code so the only viable option for you would be to use an Atk +30 unless you were willing to sacrifice your perfect code scheme (gasp!). That woudn\'t be a good idea so maybe you should just keep the invis chip afterall.

Oh ho! There\'s a familiar folder.

Don\'t mean to be a credit hog, but in the earlier stages of that folder\'s creation,
I did quite a deal in assisting darkfirex with it\'s compilation(sp?). I won\'t bore you with the incredibly long story and details, but after numerous modifications, here is the folder I see! I\'m so proud!

There are several flaws in addition to the ones AimMan v2.5 has pointed out very nicely:

1; It has a great dependence on the FolderBak chip, which is of course not a good thing. Why? Well, you see, the two main chips that darkfirex\'s folder relys on are the limited Bolt and Lightning. If those should fail in deletion, then it\'s a waiting game for the FolderBak to save your behind.

2; It can very easily be defended against with a Shadow.

3; If the enemy were to use a Repair, or another field altering chip, damage would be reduced be 50%.

4; The classic; foe could simply go under Prism and take a meager 10 damage...

5; Set up. It would be all to easy for the foe to destroy one of the obstacles with a piercing chip, or to simply intervene in the set-up of the cubes and Prism--fluidity is iffy. Iffy=risk=chance= x_x
Maybe I\'m exaggerating, but...

6; Foe only sustains \'max damage\' on top/bottom center panel. This is a very important point.

Analysis:

Breakdown of damage:
One cube=200 damage.
Cube x2 =400
Cube x2 + prism=600
x2 for ice bonus =1200 on top/bottom center panel.

As you can see, damage is quite decent.

Basis: Supported Bolt/ Lightning
Defense: Invis
Fluidity: Medium fluidity
Speed: One code

Despite the flaws, there really is no way to help them [the flaws], in the long run. If you\'re in the mood for a fun original folder, this is a good bet. After all, I did lend a helping hand in it\'s creation.

8.6/10 is my rating.

[Edited on 9-2-2004 by Zaleon]

Okay this is my folder.. \"MegamanZero66\"

Wide sword E
Lance Z
Recover 30 *
Recover 50 C
Recover 50 E

yup... thats it.

I\'ll spare you the great lecture;
far too many codes, too little sense of theme and direction.
Fluidity is very delayed, and unless you rely on luck, renovate you folder. HeroSwords do not come in K by the way, unless you sharked it...

Find some vital aspect of intent you utitlize in this folder, and focus your folder around that intent.

Oh yes, before I forget...

I need more raters!

Nah, that Hero sword came while i was swinging around the internet. I came up to this site with the NUmberman machine codes... and there is was, a Hero Sword K.. i gota get better chips.. heh XD

Oh, pocket, you can get wide sword L easly. Go to www base, as soon as you fet off the boat, go up as far as you can, and you won\'t be able to see yourself. You are behind a wall, so jack-in! Yes, this is the secret server with an awsome navi cust program \"Collector\'s Eye\" This makes it so you ALWAYS get a chip from a battle, and NEVER Zenny. Go fight some swordies with this equipt. No matter what rank you have, you will always get a chip. Hope you have better luck.....I\'m missing something like Long Sword L, or Sword L......

Hmm... I\'ll try that. I tried fighting the Alpha virii (the tiny versions of Alpha) with the collector block installed and when the battle ended it gave me this N/A message so I didn\'t win anything.

By the way, can I post a Battle Network 2 Folder that I have? I really didn\'t want to admit this but I haven\'t gotten to Napalm Man and beyond yet. I don\'t even know what Planet Man looks like...

Zero EXE is now a rater.
You all deserve badges or something, to make you feel special, or that you\'re part of a group of sorts...:lol:

Again, if you want to be a rater, post the word, or PM me.

I only beaten Parohman(sp?) and thats it:(.

Battle Networks 2 Folder:
\"It takes guts to put a fork in a toaster\"
I need a better name

FullCust (***)
Elec +40 (*)
GutsManV3(GGGGG)

I use MagBombs to hold him down and then use the GutsShoot P.A. as many times as possible. I need more MagBombs and Elec +40s.

EDIT - Noted the regular chip.

[Edited on 10-2-2004 by Pocket]

7 out of 10! Very good! I need to start playibg that game! Sheesh, I like how you have to many Gutsman V3 G chips! Kamakazy!

Here\'s my folder.

Thats not the whole thing, but a good portion of it. I have to find my save file on my computer first.

PA\'s In This Folder
Heat Blast
Life Sword

I know the codes aren\'t good, but the stratagy works well for me. Plus, I\'m quick to adapting to these things!;)

Well, suggestions are always welcome here!

AUGH! The codes are all over the place, the chance you\'ll pull off a P.A. is minimal, you have a navi+40 in there with only one navi chip, there\'s no theme... This is like the folder I had when I was looking for just strong chips. You should modify your folder so that there\'s only one code and more chips of the same type if you plan on using type specific +damage chips (ie. Not atk +X chips). That may mean removing your really good chips like Muramasa and the Random Meteor but you\'ll be gaining fluidity which is more important in the long run.

Sorry Zero.EXE, but I\'m giving your folder a 4/10 only because the average strength of your chips somewhat makes up for the poor \'assembly\'. If you insist on keeping this folder, take out the magnum (or the weakest of your chips) and replace it with a FstGauge and make it your regular. That way, you\'ll be getting those strong chips in faster.
