Shadowstrike+Kubikiri+phantom on my sniper... goodbye biggest enemy on the map.

Stacks.

I find it funny that in vanilla XCOM 2 psio ops were the most powerful class, but in LW2 they're garbage. Wasted opportunity, hopefully they get buffed.

Skullmining and Intel Packages.

could just replace the middle talent tree with IEDs lets be real here does anyone here level up the middle tree for those guys lol For real though, Specialist, Ranger, and Technicalist all have Suppression in the middle tree. Why take that when you have an entire class dedicated to Suppression? See...

The Marksman Rifle was so so good on Scouts. The Carbines were nearly necessary on Rookies. The LMG was good for suppressing at longer ranges, though i have to admit i used the SAW more. And the Battle Rifle was pretty much the best weapon for the Infantry once their aim got high enough, plus it had...

The lib missions have 2 - 3 strength above the normal regional strength, so that's why you're seeing more enemies. As for the boost, i dunno why the display didnt change.

Do they only appear after your first liberation?

Teleport it. Console command - teleporttocursor

Never understood why machine units had such poor hit accuracy to begin with; but its a gameplay balance issue so you can't really go into realistic behaviors. In regards to the difficulty bonuses though, yeah, that seemed odd to me as well seeing sparks get practically nothing. Seems like more than...

An upgrade to a facility that increases turn timers would also be welcome.

Without relying on outside modifiers, 10% (base) + 10% (heart perk i forget the name of) + 15% (elite laser sight) + 10% (talon rounds) + 20% (rough guesstimate on average bonus from aggression) + 25% (elite stock steady aim, because you should be steadying aim whenever possible) = average crit rang...

Lockdown + Danger Close + mayhem = A very very strong suppression gunner. I had one suppress 7 units at once on a tower assault, because Danger Close is amazing, and he killed the 3 that attempted to move. With Lockdown and an elite hair trigger, the overwatch penalty is negated amd most of the tim...

Basically what the other said. Slap an smg and spider suit on a stealth focused Shinobi and have him navigate to the console while the rest of your squad engages the enemy. Another immensely useful soldier to have is a Gunner, because man o man once that guy gets Danger Close, He can Area Suppress e...

Is the damage curve really that big a deal? Its 1 HP per hit. And you have to spend resources to get it on those units. Maybe go armor first. So that you've got better punch from secondary abilities? And also a bit of up on the incoming damage curve 1.5 damage. The range on the assault rifle goes f...

Danger Close (Bonus 2 tile radius) + Lockdown (+15 aim on targets that move through suppression) + elite hair trigger (+15 aim on reaction shots) + area suppression = a shut down pod that that the gunner gets a shot on for no penalty whenever they move. Pretty nice.

Definitely. Magnetic weapons don't cost that much more than laser weaponry, and the difference in damage is substantial. Even better, it gets u on the path to Coilguns faster, laser wrapon research only leads up to Plasma guns, which is waaaaaaay late game (Each plasma gun requires an elerium core t...

Middle of August, everyone has Lasers and Predator Armor, 2 SPARKS (1 overwatch focused, other heavy weapon focused) about 4 levels in each, bunch of Tech Sergeants, Psi soldiers but only a level in each. How scared should I be? I heard this mission is pretty difficult.
