    Yeah that's terrible. Grimy had a mod from when Alien Hunters first came out that made repeaters do 1/2/3 damage to rulers instead of instakilling them, I'm trying to find someone to update that for WotC to work on Chosen as well, add a 4th tier, and make it doubled when Beta Strike is active.

    Ace is the only good thunder imperil until CG Sakura, and the only good fire imperil period since GL won't be getting a fire dagger to make Nyx potentially worth using. It really isn't worth using him for the light imperil if you have Orlandu unless you need him for a mana battery. But yes, Ace...

    Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide

    Got 3 reds in 4 runs yesterday, was absolutely insane. One was the flame sword which is shit, but the other two were the volley xbow and the glaive. Glaive sucks too but at least it's fun.

    I don't know, I haven't bothered fighting Erinyes because the harp is total garbage. It's not one of the actual 12 legendary trials.

    Beta Strike is the name of that particular second wave option. And from what I'm reading, it's really horribly balanced. On top of it making recheaters even more broken, retaliation missions become an absolute meatgrinder. Double hp chrysallids and berserkers will just wade through a storm of...

    Actually if I had to guess, I'd bet that you can't rescue soldiers that were captured by a chosen you've already defeated. Also, apparently you can only have 4 resistance soldiers, the one extra soldier you get a covert op to recruit will always be from whatever faction you contacted first...

    There's nothing bleah about Agrias' enhancements, she's better than the majority of 5* bases once enhanced. Anyway, the Clouds of Lasting Light exploration is fantastic for farming rank xp, magicite, and megacrysts all at once. Don't think anything in S2 has surpassed it on JP yet.

    By Blizz logic this is probably true.

    their criteria for nerfs just shows how fucking retarded they are. No fucking shit all shamans play hex, what the fuck else do they have?

    There were no plans for a Long War 2 initially either. At the very least I'm guessing Firaxis doesn't want a Long War 2 update right away, so there isn't an "improved" version of WotC right after release.

    Because even without traps hunter doesn't have a better option than eaglehorn you dumbfucks. jesus christ. Maybe these retarded faggots just need to stop going HAM on pirates instead of fucking over the entire class.

    Makes me sad but I can't blame them. I can only assume that Firaxis/2K paid them to do Long War 2, and rebalancing Long War 2 around all of the mechanics added in WotC seems like it would be almost as much work as creating a mod from scratch.

    XCOM 2

    Once your Reaper gets the ability where kill shots don't pop you out of shadow, you just use them to finish wounded enemies. Should always be 100% hits, and you get another +1 damage if they were wounded that turn. The only way to get revealed out of shadow is if they patrol directly into you...

    XCOM 2

    A disoriented or frozen codex doesn't clone, a disoriented sectoid can't use psychic powers. Reinforcements get decimated by overwatch unless they drop in at a very inconvenient time/place. The ascension chambers are kinda half-assed, but pretty much every 'boss fight' in the game involves...

    XCOM 2

    Hard to say what build order is optimal. I still feel like resistance ring and GTS are the best two starting facilities, and I'm leaning towards ring first. Getting covert ops online asap is a nice source of extra stuff like stats or even promotions for your units, and doing the first hunt the...

    Of all the viable things to bitch about in WotC, Lost sitreps really aren't one of them. "Basically every mission" is a load of shit.

    XCOM 2

    I wasn't expecting the ascension chamber to be the exact same for the warlock as it was for the assassin, I don't see how the hunter can be any threat at all when he starts so close to you and has so little room to maneuver.

    My templar face tanked an andromedon and then the andromedon shell while also killing about 10 lost, without taking any damage yesterday when a 2 man covert op got ambushed. It was pretty clutch seeing as how his partner was only a sergeant. Getting bladestorm as one of his XCom skills would...

    Can't get multiple shots from guardian if you have the bolt caster equipped. *edit* Also, it's possible for a Reaper to roll up tactical rigging as one of their possible XCom bonus abilities you can buy. Holy shit is that OP.

    Wonder if you can get multiple rulers or a ruler and a chosen on the same map at once. Probably not but that would be hilarious. *edit* Can you imagine doing the final mission with all three chosen and all three rulers on the map?

    XCOM 2

    Oh they can flee from the facility where you encounter them? LOL Still better than them just randomly showing up after you do the narrative mission pre-WotC, or randomly showing up with no warning at all like they did pre-WotC with the narrative mission turned off. My biggest problem...

    XCOM 2

    There's a setting at the beginning that rebalances the DLC for WotC and it's defaulted to on, so you turned it off. With the rebalance, the rulers no longer show up randomly but instead each one is tied to a random facility.

    Killed the assassin, glad she (it? xir?) is finally gone because she's by far the most annoying of the chosen to fight. Final fight was a bitch, took a lot of wounds but didn't lose anyone. It's a shame that (presumably) something bad happens if you leave a chosen at maximum knowledge because if...

    Yeah I meant that literally, as in you must have none. Only one I run is Capnbubs accessory pack because it was already updated for WotC. Without a WotC update, basically any mod crashes the game instantly.

    Show LF was ruined the moment he sold Sansa to the Boltons. There was no saving the character after he did something so fucking stupid. In the books she's still safe and sound in the Eyrie because Jeyne Poole was the one sent off to the Boltons as a fake Arya. They basically wrote LF into a...
