A spotter/officer shinobi also normally do not carry utilities items. With SMG, they already about 3-5 more mobility than other. So it make sense to pick the low mobility one to make into shinobi. Also with low mobility amd aim, other stat are normally on high side. So they make good officer. With t...

Good jobs to PI team. Did not realise the version go live but playing experience seem to improve while playing. Thought I am getting good, than saw this.

Stacking rupture is important late game when you encounter those high hp and armored foe (Gatekeeper, I am looking at you......). While it is a powerful tool, the path to get a full squad equiped with all plasma are no easy. It is justifiable to have this power in late game. After all we still need ...

Totally. Will not be happy if the rupture does not stack with such high investment of resources.

No. Frustration is not intended, despair is. But seriously, this is my 1st LW2 game, playing at Veteran and honestman. I totally enjoyjng it. I did my homework prior and come to this forum for inspiration and help as needed. Ufopedia is a good sources of information althought not much details game m...

A graze fire, rupture, killzone DFA sniper. She do not miss and anything close enough is dead.

I choosed AMF for her to maximise her damage potential. Start getting all sniper rotate thru AWS in hope of getting 1 more. Sadly no other sniper turn out to have killzone so far.

It looks that liberation is also linked to the number of squad you want support. More then you probably need more missions and then you want keep the number of liberated regions higher, less and then you want keep the number of liberated regions lower. Should be the other way around? You want more ...

Low mobility, low aim = should have rolled high on defensive stats. Excellent candidate for a tank-shinobi whose main job is to be the sole visible tank that hunkers. That kinda demands you have a LOT of snipers in your roster. If you just have regular non-squadsight damage dealers, a tank shinobi ...

I find that I do not fully ultilise the full blue/yellow move for my official/spotter Shinbi most of the time. And with SMG they do have acceptable mobility compare to other class. So will it be better to use a low mobility rookie to make them into official Shinobi? Low mobility and aim rookie will ...

Finally all those assaualt I placed in Havan paid off.

Icepick the fearless assault managed to take down 5 faceless with help from the haven personnel. And 2 MECs, these are bullets magnet.

Tried to kill it before mission end. Still no corpse.

Edit: even hack also do not provide corpse.

You never ever used Arc Lightning or you wouldn't wrote that.

I did saw some LP video on that. Very nice, training 1 now.

Not sure if this a bug or design intent. If you Full Ocerride a Sectopod for control on mission, you do not get it corpse.

My struggle with assault is that in begining of mission, assault can do so little as normally there are pods within LOS of each other. Hence you are 1 man down the first few turns of the mission. While arc throw do offer some control, a psi stasis offer the same with 100% certainty. I do need to adm...

Yes. The sectopod corpse was nice. 1st gremlin MKIII. However I would think that an UFO should offer much more resouces. That thing should be made from alloy and ton of elerium as power source. Cuurent in mid Nov, with almost all non golden path research done and waiting for shadow chamber to be com...

Just completed 1 of the UFO mission. Squad composition: 1 shinobi officer, 1 DFA sniper, 1 snapshot sniper, 2 rangers, 1 psi with warsuit, 1 specialist with exo, and 1 gunner. Full plasma tier weapons. Start the battle with shinobi officer moving forward and found a 4 aliens pod. Muton elite, 2x mut...

I am in progress of building a stun rifle assault since got a lady with good AWC perks that improve aim. Will train up another one of "in your face shortgunning" assault with all the advises given. Hopefully can level up enough before game end. But definately plan for it in next play thru.

Thank. Subscribed.

Thank for the explaination. I was thinking this was a bug.

Current in early Nov with Sectopod just showed up. Avatar is at 6pips but I have access to 3 facilities, 2 HQs and blacksite. Waiting for shadow chamber to complete for the golden path.

Just got 2 UFO landed in West Africa a few day a part. It is possible? I thought there is a cold down for this mission type?

Luckilyboth my A team were available. Just need to delay the HQ assault

Currently rely on my trusty calculator

There is. It will show you the exact infiltration time both with and without a boost.

Nice. What is the name of the mod?

Thank all. I pull one of the better stat and AWC assault out from haven and took him for a spin. Hack mission with sniper, ranger, specialist and shinobi. Still not used to the playstyle and end up using him for stun and disorient most of the time. Used the shinobi as scout on the front line as advi...

Without quickstudy this will take forever....

But why not?

Thank guys. I will give it a try. Just save this girl: Hp: 6 M: 15 W: 71 H: 8 Dodge: 11 A:67 Defend: 7 AWC: lock on, DGG That what prompted me to asked the question. Seem like a good candidate for arc thrower/rifle spec. Thinking of leveling her to be chain lighting assault. But since this is my fir...

I am way under utilize the assault in my game. After tiggering addition pod too many times, I stop bringing assault on mission. I read thst they are good. But in my game, I always find them more of a burden due to lower mid to long range aim. Often I need to move them close butcend up triggering add...
