Hello again! Chain Lightning WITH Arc Pulser perk doesn`t shoot mechanical enemies (also they can`t be targeted with this perk). Although regular Arc Thrower attack with Arc Pulser perk works as intended. Can you stun mechanical units? If not, then there is no reason chain lightning would fire at t...

For those who can make sense of it, a lot of the reinforcement variables are exposed in XComLW_Overhaul.ini starting on line 945 (or so). Search for [LW_Overhaul.XComGameState_LWReinforcements]. After a certain point, you are guaranteed to receive reinforcements every other turn (this point is signi...

Are you guys who are getting this all using the caps lock trick? 'Cause that's not supported and could cause problems. It occurs to me even though I don't use the capslock trick -- on the other hand, I do run in borderless windowed mode and tab out a lot so I can do stuff whilst it loads in the bac...

IIRC, the experimental ammo/grenade project listings are extremely touchy. At one point I had ones that would only ever spit out incendiary grenades. Recommend purging your configs and verifying the game files in Steam before trying again. After Action - Days Wounded should also be redundant now, I ...

On a Shinobi with center mass and hunter's instincts. Center Mass and similar traits are primary only, but good try. ;) I speak from experience when I say those two work with pistols. It's pretty neat when one of my assaults shoot an alien for 5-8 damage with his laser pistol. Lethal is primary onl...

I specifically said standard set.

IIRC this is a vanilla bug?

There is nothing better than sneaking a concealed shinobi up to an unactivated pod and using faceoff with a mag pistol. That is all. Sure there is. Replace the mag pistol with a coil pistol, or a plasma pistol. :P On a Shinobi with center mass and hunter's instincts. Center Mass and similar traits ...

I just hate how low range Grenadiers have compared to technicals so I don't bring Grenadiers to be honest. They tend to have absurdly low mobility due to how many utility slots I pack them with. SMGs. Why? The mobility bonus (+3) offsets the standard set of utility slots (-3) perfectly. Grenadiers ...

Wait, you feel Gunners do more damage than Rangers? Per hit, it is a simple fact that Gunners do more damage than Rangers. Period. Cannons do more damage per shot than sniper rifles . Yeah, take a moment to let that sink in. If you let a gunner set up properly (which is the same for basically any c...

...you can kind of do this already? It's called "don't assign soldiers to a squad" and "you can select soldiers from other squads". I do it all the time with my Specialists. If a soldier can be deployed, they'll be lit up. If a soldier can't be deployed, which is only possible du...

Another sorta solution is to put back in the extra training slot. I think the answer right now is to train up multiple Psi-Ops until you get one with a decent level progression, and then work on them. But that leaves all the 'garbage' Psi Ops with nothing to do. If there was a seperate tube, I coul...

Do you actually have any Sectoid Corpses spare? The research itself requires 1 and so will be shunted to the bottom of the list (possibly out of view) if you have insufficient resources.

If I recall, they are not planning on it at all. Both because it is much harder to modify DLC stuffy because there is an extra wall to the code so to speak, and because the effort doesn't yield a whole lot as it is purely optional content. PI already updated the basic SPARK perkset to match the oth...

At the very least not locking out their loadout would be nice. If I want to upgrade their gear, I have to find the haven they're assigned to, deassign them, modify their loadout, and then reassign them again.

In my experience, they do not. Also, the sword would definitely conflict with the psi-amp.

Pretty sure if you actually read the description on the tech once the research is finished, it specifically mentions they traded down a little armour for that extra firepower.

It hasn't even been 24 hours. Why don't you try it and see? The Subscribe button is right there.

Blackmarket Usage is ~100% compatible with LW2. Enjoy.

Oh, so they NEED to gain a level? OK. I can live with that. Don't fret, they will only need 72 days (on veteran, if difficulty scales it) to train the meaty abilities. Even with a scientist to lower it by 50%, that's a lot of training. I truly hope the effort is worth it (Voidrift, 72 days), which ...

Dev builds.

Be honest people.. is there any worthy advantages to losing precious Research points (one day +/- here, another there) to obtain very small amounts of resources? When the BlackMarket can give you a hefty bunch of Supplies (even sometimes at a premium!) for ANY of the same corpses (Once given to me....

Someone identified a bug where excluding perks from the AWC based on class excluded them from all classes, not just the specified class.

As tesb says, it's there- you just need techs and resources. It requires a sectoid corpse and two elerium cores plus a decent pile of supplies.
