Re: Do Scopes, Lasers, Steady Weapon affect Rocket Scatter?
I believe JL has stated before that weapon mods only apply to the weapon they're equipped on, so rockets would not benefit from mods installed on your primary weapon. Yeah he said it in this topic: http://www.pavonisinteractive.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=23817&p=27504&hilit=rocket#...

Re: Tips/suggestions on HQ attack?
Here's a copy/paste from my post in another thread. It's very similar to what trihero suggested. I usually go in with a "Phalanx-squad" for missions where you will face heavy opposition. It works fairly well, only 2-4 wounded usually. (Playing on veteran, early to midgame) A gunner or 2 + ...

Re: # of Outfitted Squads & Cost to do so
Doing ... ok.... on my first run - probably going to restart to get a fresh start cause the game difficutly is ramping up fast and the new update. I am running into an issue and curious how others are handling it. I'm in July / August in my current playthrough I have 4 squads - each squad has a ful...

Re: How to use Ranger secondary?
It's useful for those bullet-spunges if you can stun them. I used it on the beserker queen after stunning the thing with my assault. I was able to kill her before she got away

Re: Should we ever fight missions where we can't get any infiltration?
You definitly should if you can muster a squad you feel comfortable with. I usually go in with a "Phalanx-squad" for missions where you will face heavy opposition. It works fairly well, only 2-4 wounded usually. (Playing on veteran, early to midgame) A gunner or 2 + 1 ranger in front as th...

Re: Feature Request: "Remove all upgrades from unequipped weapons"
While not being as important as removing upgrades, "Remove all gear" would also be nice if possible. I doubt I'm the only one who removes all 3 (Weapons, Armor & Utility) separately before outfitting a squad for a new mission. So I made a mod that includes these two buttons. Have fun!...

http://www.pavonisinteractive.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=23817&p=27504&hilit=rocket#p27504 Hey DarkRenown, good seeing you again. Scopes and steady weapon do not affect Rocket Scatter. Innate "aim" to the soldier and aim from PCSes should. Weapon addons only apply to the w...

Option settings revert to default on launch
I'm not sure what section to ask this, as this is issue more related to the the vanilla game. Sorry in advance if it's the wrong one. I was wondering if anyone knows how to keep the game settings(after changing them in the options menu) from resetting to default on launch. They always reset, even th...

Re: Any success with overwatch perks
Like Gunner, Specialist, Ranger going heavy on the reaction fire perks? I'm trying to see the silver lining but I find that if you are aiming for the late game when the enemy gets really crazy hp units, you don't want to be relying on reaction shots on those. I could maybe see a use for a gunner th...

Re: Lost Towers, ADVENT Trooper
Was it intended for Shen to have infinite combat protocol on this mission.?
I assume it's a bug/oversight, but it does fit the narrative a little because she's your lead engineer and has some kind of special bond with her gremlin.

Re: How do you equip your soldiers?
I learned the hard way that Nanoscale Vests give you extra health, not increased ablative armor. I thought it was a bug at first, but since you can equip bot the Nano-vest and and plating i'm sure it's not a bug. Alloy plating gives you 3 ablative armor. I think you need to Advent Trooper autopsy f...

Re: Tower missions: any tips?
Those missions are indeed quite hard. Protip: hacking the objective stuns every enemy on the map for 2 full turns. This is indeed good to keep in mind. The team I used for my first tower op; Ranger Officer - Standard shooter build. I used him to pin enemies, take tough shots, and generally kill thi...

Tower missions: any tips?
My first one was quite disastrous as I barely made it out, and pretty much everyone in ended up in the med-bay. I forgot what the map layout on towers was like. I destroyed the cover to cross the bridge, had low mobility and the reinforcements had me pincered. Good thing I always bring a good amount...

Workshop limit: bug or design?
I can only build 1 workshop in The Avenger. I can build in another location if i destroy the one i already have. I'm assume it's intended, but i wanted to check first.
