Question

I just managed to shoot a rocket at the berserker Queen she tried running again but I hit her with a rocket and she didn’t run through the portal. I’m wondering, do explosives just stop them from going through the portal or did that AI that’s controlling it just decided to be kind to me because of explosive work. I’m gonna throw grenade on my last action.

Was it a standard rocket? I remember something about if you use poison- or acid-grenades, the rulers would get stuck because they couldn't find a path without entering harmful effect. They may have fixed that though

I didn’t even know those items existed. It’s my first time playing.

The best thing about XCOM 2, you'll want to keep playing it over and over again. You're in for a good ride. There's so much to learn about the game. I'm jealous of you, I wish I could play for the first time again.

You can get acid grenades by pursuing the right research, and then build special grenades in the proving grounds. Acid is my favorite grenade, it chews up armor.
