Re: Do rupture from perk and plasma tier weapons stack?
Yes. Which honestly I think really shouldn't. I think that the ruptured unit should be ruptured only for the highest value they were ruptured for (i.e. if a unit is hit with a plasma rifle and then hit with the rupture skill they would then only be ruptured for 3 instead of 4). Because rupture neve...

Re: War of the chosen is right around the corner :)
I read posts quoting that for now there's no plan to make a LW2 WotC version. Some articles list many changes coming and it's cool... but for me among DLC, Anarchy"s Children is a much much better DLC than Aliens Hunter. I played once AH have have zero plan to ever do it again, not even in a n...

War of the chosen is right around the corner :)
I know this isn't necessarily a post on strategy regarding Long War. But is anyone really excited about the new war of the Chosen expansion? I'm actually really excited to see what the long war team does with all the new content from the XCOM base game. I can't imagine how great long War 1.6 and 1.7...

Psi Trooper level up progression question
Hey guys I had a question regarding psi troopers. I have three side Troopers in my current campaign and whenever each of them level up they pretty much get access to the same skills with the exception of one side Trooper who got access to null Lance first before domination. Is the skill progression ...

Codex not spawning
I'm playing on veteran. Codex won't spawn on my missions, I can't complete the golden mission. I was instructed in the strategy forum to.use console commands to add a codex manually to fix the issue.

Re: Can't find a codex to skulljack
A lot of people had issues in spawning one for the quest. You can use console command to spawn one: dropunit cyberus 1 I am not sure if you can finish the campaign if you have only 10 days left. You will set back the timer after you take the codex but endgame, it goes back pretty quickly. You might...

Re: Technicals and Grenadiers with SMG's
I do the same thing with my Grenadier xand technicals. I give them SMGs almost always. I view Grenadier and technicals as consumable classes. You bring them in for their consumable items. And the ability to destroy cover. Their ability to shoot comes second only to their ability to destroy things or...

Re: Is it just me or are Shinobis the most important class in the game?
I wouldn't say Shinobi's are the best class but I certainly will admit that they're very critical. My sword should know be is almost always number one in kills through the course of the game. It's nice having a class that can reliably kill one enemy per turn at the bare minimum. The Phantom should k...

Black site mission question 1.4
Hi guys it's been awhile since I've done the black site Mission and I'm curious is to whether I can still do the black site Mission with two Shinobi's or now that they've changed the way pods are in terms of size and frequency is it best to go into the black site mission with a full crew?

Re: How do you deal with yellow alert flanking shots?
The shadow chamber will tell you how many enemies and what kind of enemies are on the given Mission before you enter the mission. There's also a mod that will count the number of enemies based on what the shadow chamber tells you. Because if you know how many enemies are on the map. You know what t...

Re: How do you deal with yellow alert flanking shots?
4. The shadow chamber is a HUGE advantage if you can get it fast. There is a mod that is an enemy troop counter which also helps. Why is the Shadow Chamber an advantage for avoiding yellow alert shots? The shadow chamber will tell you how many enemies and what kind of enemies are on the given Missi...

Thank you for the input. I almost always take Close Encounters but I will start taking a look at hit-and-run because of your post. Is there anyone else that might take rapid fire and hit and run over Close Encounters?

Re: MEC serves XCOM side
There is a specialist perk that allows you to keep mecs for your havens. They are pretty helpful during haven defense Do they just get generic MECs or does the type of MEC you capture matter? Super Heavy Resistance MEC would be awesome. Just a basic me, but I think that is a great idea the devs sho...

Hi guys I have a question regarding hit and run versus Close Encounters versus rapid fire.

Type 1 is the stun Gunner assault. Type 2 ...

Re: How do you deal with yellow alert flanking shots?
This can be challenging to deal with however there are ways to prepare for it. 1. Staying on the edges of the map limits the numbers of directions you are flanked. 2. Fighting indoors helps as walls can block your squad 3. The enemy count is dictated by the density of enemies, extremely light means ...

How soon do you liberate your first region?
Hey guys.
I was curious how many months it takes you guys to get your first region? I am kinda struggling financially right now in the game and i think it may be because I waited till ingot laser and pred armor.
Thank you!
