I dont know if its a bug or not but sometimes when I try Insanity on advent I get the preview percentage.. say 70% or 90%, but when I try it Perfect Information tells me "0% Hit, 0% Crit, 0% Dodge" and obviously misses.
Is this just a bad roll (miss) and Perfect Information didnt work? Its odd as it works most of the time when using Insanity.
Or is there a bug in the game and the preview % is wrong?
Any ideas?

Re: Insanity
Well, it's XCOM. So assuming your mod isn't bad, the game could just be doing what it usually does, which is unapologetically screwing you for the sake of it.

I missed a 100% hit from my point blank assault last night. LOLed.
FYI... I have 10% graze band..

Re: Insanity
I've had several Faceless miss "100%" swipes at me. Perfect Information isn't perfect for some things.
Re: Insanity
That can happen against high dodge enemies. You rolled poorly and ended up in the graze band, and then the alien dodged and "downgraded" your graze to a miss.Snipethis wrote:I missed a 100% hit from my point blank assault last night. LOLed.

Re: Insanity
I've had the same thing happen to me, and I keep the graze band at 0. Apparently there's still a chance for it to trigger if the roll is exactly on the money, and it's annoying how frequently that apparently happens.Snipethis wrote:I missed a 100% hit from my point blank assault last night. LOLed.

Re: Insanity
So anyone have any idea as to whats happening with the Perfect Info stuff? Because if its really 0% hit then I will stop wasting an action point on it.
Re: Insanity
It's definitely not actually 0%. Perfect Information will just report it as 0% when it fails. In my current campaign, I have 4 or 5 PsiOps and I spam insanity all the time. The percentages reported by the "shot preview" feel correct based on my results. Insanity is great, you should use it.
Re: Insanity
Despite what most people think - I love Psi's. They are absolutely clutch when it comes to control and saving the "oh hell" moment. I have 6 operating and I always take one in every team. It also ensures the Psi Chamber is always training 2 guys.
I recently added "Make Psi Great Again" mod to see what all the fuss was about. It adds quite a lot of cool stuff but the choices I have made for my current Psi's are now sub-optimal so I was thinking of retraining them in the AWC and re-picking my skills. Has anyone tried this?
