Re: Skill don't show in UI (too many)
if you are using 30 ability icons you need to enable use base game ability container in your lw2 options.

Re: Flanking : an exploit ?
I do exploit the crap out of this, I have a handful of overwatch gunners with lock down and CUP and mayhem and I use the shinobi stealth flank to force the aliens to move, and get mow down by the massively stacked suppression damage.

Holotarget independant targeting does not refresh properly when re-apply
If you have independent targeting and use holo target on someone who is already holo targeted, you will notice that the turn remaining didn't get bump back up to 2 and it stays at 1. This is due to an error in implementing the check for independent targeting when applying holo targeting. Where it is...

Re: Changing infiltration math to balance small squad ops

Re: Thoughts on Stealth & 5-6 man missions
1 way to discourage stealth but encourage small squads is to DECREASE POD SIZE instead of the current decreasing pod numbers as you infiltrate. Sort of what I was going for in one of my points but you said it better. I would add that unless you have a bigger map to spread out the pods then it doesn...

Re: Wet Work Balance
oscar mike into command did not trivalize gameplay, it's straight up necessary if you want to have a chance to complete stealth vip extractions, due to there will always be a pod patrolling around the evac zone.
Unless you consider any form of stealth missions are trivalizing gameplay.

Re: So 0%/low% supply raids are getting nerfed....
What concerns me about the nerf is that it's in a way where if I desperately need to stop the increase of advent strength, I won't be able to stop it. :s I ran a 5% raid a little while back to keep strength at 2 in April so I could raid the HQ with less worry. supply raids are troop strength transf...

Re: Biggest hit, can anyone do better than 82
combined arms give additional +1 base damage. Vital point targeting is also calculated AFTER the x2 damage from killer instinct/street sweeper because of effects resolve order (source before target), it is also +2 not +3 So the current max is 80 not 82 But instead of using bluescreen you can use nee...

Yeah, I thought as much. It's annoying that the interface doesn't give an indication of why this is happening, though.

If it's really too hard for you, consider skipping it and let the recruits die, it's better th...

Re: Kubikiri Immunity
That's due to the 33% DR they get when closed, kubrikiri should use a special applyweapon damage effect that straight up use unitstate.takedamage instead of increasing the damage to match their hp to prevent further bugs like this.infidel901 wrote:Same problem here against gatekeeper.

Re: Ranger Ammo Bug
are you able to reload your gun after shooting the free ammo? If yes, that might be the double equip bug from vanilla. Like the PCS stacking bug, it happens sometimes when you equip them through squad select.

Re: Are Flashbangs overpowered
They are damage grenades, and are basically an inferior flashbang. Why do you think that they're an inferior flashbang? They provide a roughly equivalent aim and mobility bonus, do slight damage over time, last at least 2 turns, and can be used for zoning. I'm not saying they're crazy good- flashba...

Re: So 0%/low% supply raids are getting nerfed....
I think xwynns subtly mentioned in one of his videos that they are increasing mission duration timers across the board, allowing for better infiltration timers and more varied size groups. That's not exactly the same thing as making them easier to detect, but still has a healthier outcome in genera...

Re: Ability Roust and Overwatch - bug or Design ?
This is due to concealment is broken after ability activation game state submit, after all the effects are applied (so advent won't run to cover before your shot from concealment reach him). And the fallback effect from roust is an effect, so the targets ran into cover while your squad is still conc...

Re: ADVENT reacting to concealed movements?
I do notice that still happens from time to time, that's why when stealthing I tend to make my shinobi stand far away from my specialist, so the center of squad is far away and they will move away from my specialist.
