Help: Console Command for unlearn an AWC perk?

I thought Deep Cover cancelling Steady Weapon was fixed in patch 1.3 so I taught my fully trained pistol Sharpshooter Deep Cover.
I shouldn't have been that greedy... :cry:
Is there a way to unlearn the perk? I've checked the Console Command page on ufopaedia but I only found give perk commands.

Deep Cover still cancels Steady Weapon

Using Steady Weapon will now count as an attack action for the purposes of Deep Cover, meaning DC will not trigger. This prevents Deep Cover auto-canceling the Steady Weapon bonus. 1) 1.4 2) Win 10 3) Mods I'm using 4)Deep Cover still triggers after using Steady Weapon 5)Can't add attachments, says...

1 Damage Rocket

1) 1.4 2) Win 10 3) Mods I'm using 4) Rocket almost hit the target dead center but still doing 1 dmg 5) No save. After some discussion , I decided to submit this as a bug based on my understanding. Sometimes I see rockets scatter into high hp objects (like a building column) and resulting in low or ...

Re: Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

Last possibility is damage falloff. I don't know how and when it's calculated nor do i know if it can drop damage below the minimum damage displayed but if it's calculated after normal roll and you rolled the min damage, then maybe it can drop to only 1. Tuhalu explained explosive damage falloff in...

Re: Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

Not sure, but I see you have Yet Another F1 installed which should show the perk if you have a save from when it happened. In that case, no. Even the enemies in my current stage don't have it. Unless this perk got changed from a permanent DE to one with limited duration in a patch. But I can't reca...

That looks horrible. Seems rockets are even worst than I knew. I am not sure how many people go Racketeer spec on a Technical. For me flame build is way more powerful.

Re: Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

Explosive damage falloff is a factor in addition to min/max damage. You actually can have 1 damage due to falloff. In short, explosive damage falloff can reduce the damage from a grenade or rocket down to 50% of the actual damage rolled (with a minimum of 1). So a rocket doing 2-7 damage that catch...

Re: Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

Grenades and Rockets do less damage the further they're away from the point of detonation, unless you get Tandem Warheads, which counters this mechanic. That would explain why you're getting 1 damage. I think it also happens when the explosion has to go around a solid object. I've never seen a &quo...

Re: Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

You have to keep an eye on the armor. Grenades do not ignore armor without training (there is a perk that adds armor pierce + extra shred; missing the name now). So 2 HP/1 Armor enemy is not a guaranteed kill for a standard grenade. I never had a single point of damage on a non-armored enemy; but t...

Thank you for all your replies! It seems that I was blinded by the bonus radius nerfing and forgot about how stronk the fire nades are. I'll keep using them. :D Acid grenades continue to be bad.

Questions about post patch 1.3 Grenadier

Patch 1.3 Notes: - Advanced Grenade Launcher now grants +2 range and +0 radius over regular GL, instead of +1/+1. - Increased sapper env damage bonus by 1 to make it more reliable. I was disappointed by Sapper+CE Grenadier in 1.1 so I decided to try fire/acid/gas Full Kit Grenadier in the next campa...

Re: Performance issues in Swarming/Final missions

My game slows down and even freezes during big missions like the Haven and HQ Assault. I could play vanilla fine with the same setting, but since there are way more things on those big missions in LW, using the same setting may not be optimal anymore. What I found useful was reboot the game. It feel...

Thanks, that's helpful advice. I wasn't aware it was a dark event, just assumed the chryssalids were part of the regular gang after a certain point. Does it really end after a month?

Re: Stealth missions in the age of chryssalids

My stealth team wiped due to a lid recently. I'm thinking you could try a Shinobi+Specialist team. Since Specialist can hack remotely, it's less likely to get ambushed by burrowed lids near the objective. But you still need a lot of scanners and even scanning protocol to clear a safe path. It's a da...

I'd like to help, but I play the game in English.

Mission objective got crashed

Just had a "download data cache" mission with a sectopod in one of the pods. On turn 4 it patrolled into the device and crashed it. :cry:
Although I've experienced this in vanilla xcom and it's not very game breaking, I just want to bring it up and hope this could be fixed eventually.
