![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hood morphs properly into all the vanilla soldier faces. If using any of the vanilla hairstyles, it’s recommended to use the long hair version of the hood in the helmet slot to allow proper version of the hair to be shown, though some of the longer hairs work well with the original fit aswell. Original fit is suitable for bald heads and buzz cuts, and long hair fit is suitable for pretty much any other vanilla hairstyle. Hood has two versions – "Original/Buzz Cut" and "Medium/Long Hair". Three tint versions: original purple, vanilla style tintable (armor overlay uses primary color) and GrimStyle tintable (underlay uses primary color). Earpiece is available in upper/lower face prop slot. Hood is available in helmet/upper/lower face prop slot. Arms and shoulders are separate for left/right slots. Armor/MEC suit: Titan Armor Powers/Biotic Augments: Brain: Neural Feedback / Eyes: Hyper Reactive Pupils / Chest: Seconday Heart / Skin: Bioelectric Skin. The mod is purely visual, usable with Kevlar/Plated/Powered tiers. Note: I did not create the armor, I merely ported the model with minor edits into the Xcom 2 skeleton – see credits. This is also the case with the Ghost Armor which has the same grapple extension ported over.Last revision: 15 Apr, 2020 at 07:31 UTC (1)Ĭlassic XCOM Armor, inspired by the Personal Armor of UFO: Enemy Unknown. ago Skeleton armor is my goto armor in XCOM. Your mileage may vary, but for my money, the skeleton suit is my armor of choice until ghost armor becomes available. Such tech skip, however, might not be viable/advisable during games when the "Marathon" Second Wave option is enabled or when heavy casualties are sustained and survival becomes a priority.Įither due to a bug or not, the left arm grapple extension is not worn by Gene Modded soldiers traveling to a mission in the Skyranger. Skeleton suits also use fewer alloys than carapace. Skipping Carapace Armor for the Skeleton Suit is a viable and advantageous strategy in most scenarios, as the latter not only costs 5 less Alien Alloys than the former but the improved mobility options and Defense bonus ultimately increase the average squad's survivability much more significantly than its predecessor's incrementally higher health bonus. In fact, depending on the vertical distance, standing directly next to a desired high ledge to grapple on makes the soldier unable to do so because of the uncomfortable angle. This feature is useful to gain a high-ground bonus in accuracy, cover slightly greater distances, flank the enemy and especially to approach (or escape) enemy units using Overwatch or Suppression, as this movement type stands alone in bypassing all reaction fire triggers entirely (making it even more worthwhile in this regard than Lightning Reflexes which is limited to negating only the first shooter's attack).įurthermore, when considering the visible-enemy movement rules of the Mimetic Skin modification in XCOM: Enemy Within, grappling while stealthed yet in view of one or more enemies will reveal the cloaked soldier as expected – but only after the grapple has completed, meaning that there are quite a number of situations where an otherwise 'stranded' soldier might escape undetected (typically to an overhanging roof rather than out-of-sight-radius, though the latter is sometimes possible).Ĭhoosing the grapple option will display nearby tiles on high ground that can be targeted - the unit does not need to be directly under the desired tile. XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a remake of X-COM (note the lack of hyphen) developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K. Using the Grapple counts as one move for the purposes of expending available actions and allows XCOM soldiers to benefit from otherwise inaccessible elevated locations such as structural archways, rooftops or mountainous terrain. Daedwartin 2 the covvies, realizing that the gods have not prevented their orbital support from being disabled, glass the enemy forces. Rare use of Plasma & Power Armor 2C: VS Late-Game XCOM: Titan/Archangel/Ghost Armor and Plasma are standard. This armor mounts a grappling hook and cable on the left arm, permitting rapid elevation change and access to tactically advantageous positions. 2B: VS Mid-Game XCOM: Carapace/Skeleton/Alloy Armor and Lasers are standard.
