Weapons (TJ)

Back To Main Page

As with Long War 1, Long War 2, and Long War of the Chosen, Ted Jam makes some changes to the weapons available to XCOM:

• 5 tiers of primary weapons are available: Conventional, Laser, Magnetic, Coilgun and Plasma.
• Secondary weapons are unique and tied to each class.
• Rocket Launchers and Flamethrowers are no longer equippable as heavy weapons, they are now part of the Technical class' secondary weapon. In turn, Technicals can't equip the rest of heavy weapons.
• The Pistol is now an auxiliary weapon available for any soldier, equipped in their Utility slots.

Note that while weapons don't have a maximum range, soldiers have a limited sight range of 17 tiles, so unless they have Squadsight they can only shoot (and will only get the range modifier) up to 17 tiles away.

Weapon Tiers

Conventional

The weapons XCOM starts with, they are unlimited in supply and have no special properties. Every default weapon is at this tier.

Laser

The first upgraded weapons XCOM can research provide a +5 aim innate bonus in addition to higher base damage.

Magnetic

The original second tier has been bumped up the tech tree with more damage but otherwise no special properties.

Coilgun

The fourth tier of weapons are significantly more expensive to build, but in addition they ignore 1 point of armor, making them valuable against armored targets.

Plasma

The final tier of weapons need an Elerium Core to build but they boast the highest damage, and any enemy hit by plasma weapons will rupture the target, taking 1 additional damage from any other damage sources.

Primary Weapons

Assault Rifles

Assault Rifles are the default primary weapon of XCOM soldiers, and can be used by any class save for Gunners and Sharpshooters and the heroes. Extremely versatile and "middle of the road" in every way.

Cannons

Cannons are the only weapon available to Gunners, automatic rifleman specialist trained in using light machine gun or squad automatic weapon as part of a fireteam. They have higher damage compared to rifles, and larger clips. They suffer penalties at very short range, but nowhere near the extent that sniper rifles do.

Pistols

Pistol Perks

For most classes, the pistol is now a dedicated slot item and can be equipped on any soldier but costs 1 mobility (Darkclaw does not cost a mobility). Pistol related perks are trainable with AP if you scroll down on the promotion screen (it takes a lot of scrolling!). Officers also have a few abilities related to pistols, including the ability to give one to a civilian ally.
However, Akimbos and Hoplites use pistols as primary weapons. Pistol primaries do not cost 1 mobility and also gain 3 weapon mod slots.

Shotguns

Shotguns can be equipped by most soldiers in Long War 2. Assault, Combat Engineer, Crasher, and Scrapper soldiers have several perks specializing in them. They have higher damage than rifles, innate critical chance, high aim bonuses at short range but significant penalties at long range, making it necessary to get close.

Sniper Rifles

Sniper Rifles are the only weapon available to Sharpshooters. Sniper rifles have higher damage than rifles and innate critical chance, but they suffer aim penalties at short range and at extreme ranges when used with Squadsight.

Submachine Guns

SMG-type weapons can be used by most classes. They do lower damage than assault rifles and have more falloff at range, but increase mobility and more accurate at close range. They also slightly decrease infiltration time for the soldier carrying them.

Artillery Cannons

Artillery Cannons are alternate weapons wielded by MEC Troopers and SPARKs, though only MEC Snipers make the best use of them. They have only one ammo at a time, and their damage is reduced by cover. In addition, equipping Heavy Shells grants access to a number of other alternative methods of firing the Artillery Cannon.

** Rupture for the Plasma Artillery Cannon does not apply to HE Shells, HESH Shells, or AoE damage from HEAT/HEDP Shells.

Incinerators

Incinerators are flamethrowers wielded by SPARKs and MEC Troopers, though only the MEC Hellion class specializes in it. They function identically to Chemthrowers, but are larger and deal more damage. Note that unlike chemthrowers, incinerators do not automatically get Chemthrower Suppression.

Bolt Caster

The Bolt Caster is a unique weapon from the Alien Hunters DLC, with only one available per campaign. While it counts as an assault rifle, it has higher damage, aim and crit bonuses, shreds 1 armor and has a 20% chance to stun on a hit, which becomes 30% on Alien Rulers. As a counterbalance, it has only 1 shot available before having to reload, and it can't be modified with weapon upgrades.

Bullpups

Bullpups are the weapons wielded by Skirmishers. They act similar to smgs having lower damage than an assault rifle and less accurate at longer range but having a bonus to mobility, infiltration time, and aim at closer range.

Vektor Rifles

Vektor rifles are the weapons wielded by Reapers. It serves as a marksman rifle being more accurate than an assault rifle and still effective slightly beyond visual range but having slight penalties at close range. Although they have the same base damage as a rifle, they are far more lethal when scoring a critical hit.

Templar Gauntlet

Templar gauntlets are the weapons wielded by Templars. Unlike all other soldiers who wield some sort of firearm as a primary, templars is more melee-oriented, closing in on enemies to strike at.

Secondary Weapons

Secondary weapons are available only to Soldier classes. These weapons require specific training and each Soldier class can use only one type of special weapon.

Arc Throwers

The Arc Thrower is used by the Assault class. They do no damage, but will stun organic enemies if it hits. Importantly, it has normal range penalties, giving a shotgun equipped Assault an option to use at range.

Perks allow the Arc Thrower to deal armour-ignoring damage to mechanical enemies (MECs, Drones) and reduce their hack defense.

Sawed-Off Shotguns

The Sawed-Off Shotgun is used by the Buccaneer, Keeper, Ranger, and Survivalist classes. It deals colossal damage at close range, especially if both barrels are used at once, but has extreme accuracy penalties beyond a few tiles. These shotguns cannot be reloaded.

GREMLINs

The GREMLIN is used by the Specialist class. These little robots provide electronic warfare and logistical combat support, such as remote hacking and healing, and can deal damage with the right perks, especially against mechanical enemies.

Gauntlets

The Gauntlet is used by the Technical class allowing the use of a rocket launcher and flamethrower. The gauntlet is equipped with 1 rocket and 2 charges of the flamethrower. The rocket has a radius of ~3 tiles and the flamethrower fires in a cone with a range of 7 tiles and spanning out to 5 tiles wide. The flamethrower has a 60% chance to burn targets and a 50% chance to burn environmental tiles.

Psi Underlays

The Psi Amp has been replaced by the Psi Underlay in Ted Jam, and it is used by the Psi Operative class. They are used for all psionic attacks.

Kinesis Perks: Note that some psi perks use the Kinesis hit chance formula, which fundamentally is a Psi Offense vs Defense roll instead of a Psi Offense vs Will roll. However, it is more complex than simply Psi Offense vs. Defense. That formula is:
Round(30.48 * (7.72 + Sqrt(PsiOffense)))
and the hit chance is then modified by

• Defense
• Cover
• Height
• Flanking
• Range
• Concealment (ignores dodge)

SPARK BITs

SPARK BITs are drones used by SPARKs, as well as most classes that can use Gremlins, including Dragoons, Specialists, and MEC Troopers. They can be used to hack targets like GREMLINs, use heavy weapons or explode at a distance. BITs grant one heavy weapon slot.

Throwing Knives

Throwing Knives are the new secondaries of Reapers. They serve as their close range option, being more accurate and reliable up close compared to their vektor rifle. These new weapons allow the reaper to take highly aggressive positions, going deep into enemy lines, in shadow as these weapons are guaranteed to never reveal.

Heavy Weapons

There are two types of Heavy Weapons: those carried by the Technical class in their Gauntlet, and those used in Heavy Armor suits and SPARK BITs. Technicals cannot make use of the second even when wearing a Heavy suit, but they can carry extra ammo for their Gauntlet weapons.

The other Heavy Weapons have a single charge and fire in a cone 25 tiles long and 12 tiles wide. XCOM has infinite Shredder Guns at their disposal, but more advanced variants have to be researched and built.

Rocket Scatter

Rocket scatter is calculated by making a number of aim rolls against the maximum scatter distance and applying scatter of that number of tiles in a random direction. The maximum scatter is by default 4 tiles, reduced by 2 tiles by the Fire In The Hole ability, and increased by 2 tiles if the soldier has only one action remaining.

The aim rolls are based on the aim of the soldier, reduced by 30 if the soldier has only one action remaining, with a range penalty of 3 per tile further than 9.

So, if your Tech has 70 Aim innately and Fire In The Hole, hasn't moved and is taking a shot at a target 14 tiles away (-15), you want 2 rolls of 55%. You have a 30% chance of a direct hit and an 80% chance of getting 1 tile or less. Not bad. On the other hand if they moved before firing, you'll be making 4 rolls of 25%. Not great odds!

Rocket accuracy can further be increased by increasing the soldier's base aim. Modifiers based on the soldier's weapon will not effect it. For example, these effect the soldier's aim in general and will boost rocket accuracy:

• Aim progression on stat bonuses from leveling up
• Lone Wolf
• Combat Fitness
• Steady Hands
• Aim (Perk)
• PCS: Perception
• PCS: Combat Rush

For a counter-example, these effect effects are tied to weapons and don't effect rocket accuracy:

• The accuracy boost from laser weapons
• Weapon upgrade modules (scopes, stocks, etc)
• Tracer rounds
• PCS: Hyper reactive pupils

Weapon Upgrades

After researching Modular Weapons, most primary weapons will be available for upgrading. In Long War of the Chosen, weapon upgrades can be applied, replaced and removed freely. Scopes and Laser Sights are mutually exclusive, same as Expanded Magazines and Auto Loaders.

Weapon upgrades can be obtained from ADVENT loot drops, mission rewards, Covert Actions, or bought from the Black Market. After obtaining 1 of a specific weapon upgrade, a Proving Grounds project will become available to begin fabricating them.

X and Y in the "Effect" column of the table below refer to the first and second numerical values in the "Effect Value" column.
