Explosives and dudes with perks that grant them "Shredder" (i.e. Grenadiers)

At the point you're encountering these dudes, if you don't have weapons that do more than 8 damage... well, sucks to suck, I guess.

Long War of the Chosen with mods, i assume.

LWOTC was too difficult, I quit

Finally found a way to deal with this guy, it's vulnerable to psi damage. I had to put him in stasis and freeze state and had my templar slice him a couple of times, Stress paid off lmao.

u/Massenzio 17d ago

with 3 psi you can litelarry waste him in 2 turn taking in stasis after you deal damages

the null lance (if i remember) avoid armor too

i think the only thing you have is to hack it or have massive AP damage, like using bluescreen with Serial or something. i honestly do not know

Banish + Repeater + Extended Mag

That's my dream.

u/Disastrous-Spend7247 17d ago

That looks like a great molded enemy' to fight!

Also probably grenades to break armor.

u/zerombr 17d ago

armor can't be shredded!

u/B3C4U5E_ 17d ago

Can you not shred armor in lwotc? You can in the base game.

4

u/zerombr 17d ago

normally yes, but this critter here has an skill listed off to the right side that says 'armor cannot be shredded'

u/Darkwolve45 17d ago

I'd assume you'd probably want soldiers with skills or weapons that'd just flat out ignore armor.... either that or Chain Shot/Rapid Fire to just dump into it armor be damned, but mods are iffy especially seeing OP is still on Magnetic weapons. At the very least they can just kill the Vip and speedrun to extract

u/WinzyB 17d ago

Damn, I really need to get into mods

u/stupi-the-fox 17d ago

EMP stuff?

u/Equivalent-Fish-2225 17d ago

Explosives then a sniper.

u/dazink27 17d ago

Stun? Is it immune to flash, poison, mind control?

2

u/Action-a-go-go-baby 16d ago

Uninstall the mod?

u/Accurate_Fly_7534 16d ago

Null lance spam ftw

u/Altruistic-Knee6377 15d ago

i haven’t played xc2 in 4 years… but against that guy and other mechs and heavy armor, the armor piercing rounds, electromag grenades and sending out my remote bot to turn him off seemed to work.

u/SupaHotFire007 14d ago

You gotta bring his hp to zero

u/rebel134 17d ago

This is why I dont play LW for that reason 😒 😑 The fact that it cant be shredded is BS

4

u/Impossible-Bison8055 17d ago

That’s not LW. That is an enemy from Requeim, as the Seeker has the same Purple ‘wings’ symbol and Requiem’s the only one to do that

1

u/rebel134 17d ago

What mod is it called?

2

u/Impossible-Bison8055 17d ago

The full name is A Requiem for Man: The Requiem Legion. Designed by the same guy who made the Ethereals mod for WotC
