I just lost quite advanced ironman run due to a fucking trooper being immune to flashbangs cause he got stuck in some kind of closet (bonus points for not being able to target him unless i was standing next to him ) or w/e it was.

i love X-com 2 but please patch

Those are the ones i enjoy the most. Dunno, did you try out the LW mods ? That's what i am doing now.

So is the proving ground bugged? When I start something and it says 6 days estimated I deploy and engineer to reduce production time but instead it doubles! When I then remove the engineer from the proving ground it doubles again making it last 4x longer (i think) than what it started out with. A skulljack shouldnt take 30+ days to build on commander with an engineer to speed up the process.

Weird. Never happened to me, and i thought you always required an engineer to craft stuff there.

How the hell do I acquire a gatekeeper shell to build an alien psi amp? 1st gatekeeper I met I killed with a nade, it exploded "OK, so his shell is like mods. Don't use explosives" I said to myself. But the next mission I mind control one, kill it off with normal weapons and.... no shell as salvage. WTF is going on here.
I'm almost done with September for God's sake. I want that AMP.

Explosives don't kill corpses in XCom 2. You do not get corpses when you kill units under your control.

Crit and hit mechanichs. The game only makes one roll for both, so the closer your crit chance is to your hit chance, the most likely it will crit. That means a 50% hit with 25% crit, in reality would crit a 50% of the time. Or those pesky shots that officers do where you lowered their aim by a flashbang and you stay in full cover and he crits you. Yep, because they have a 10% crit chance and you left them at a 15% hit, so if they hit, they have a 66% crit chance.

That's a very interesting find. Explains a lot about the intuitions people have had, actually.

If I understand this correctly, this means that if an enemy has a 10% crit chance, 1 shot out of ten will hit and be a crit. Being in good cover does not reduce that percentage unless you manage to get their hit chance below 10%.

If their hit chance is for example 5%, they would only hit 1 shot out of 20, but each of the hits would crit.

It kinda makes sense honestly, with 2 rolls, crits chance was depending on hit chance (50% to hit and crit for example, so 0,5 x 0,5= 0,25 chance to actually crit)
With only one roll, as long as your crit chance is not higher than your hit chance, you really have your crit% chance of scoring a crit.

My rocket launcher is thirsty.


Hit them, then killed two codexes and one clone in the Overwatch, and then was able to hit the rest with a flashbang. One of my rangers with Reaper was able to kill the rest in one go, then got approached by a Chryssalid and took off half its health with Bladestorm.

Delicious.

Hey guys, does anybody know for sure if repeaters work on pistols or just the main weapon? I'm struggling to see who I should give a superior repeater to.

You can't mod pistols. However, pistols do benefit from ammo.

always use a repeater with a stock because the instant kill can trigger on the stock damage.

you can only put 2 mods on a weapon, or is there more you can put on later?

I think there's two schools of thought for repeaters: put them on a specialist because they do crappy damage, or put them on a grenadier because they're more likely to shoot first.

I put them on serial or anyone that can potentially do multiple shots.

Also is the best tactic for the final mission + Show Spoiler +
