Hewhoispale: Removing the link to the basic tech tree image since it is dead.

{{Toc_(LW2)|61}}<div style="padding-left: 20px; float:right">[[File:XCOM 2 Facility Powercore.png|256px|left]]</div>The Power Core of the Avenger doubles as its main Research laboratory, headed by Dr. Tygan. Research in [[Long War 2]] has been expanded with two more weapon tier techs, one more autopsy, and more Proving Grounds projects unlocked by autopsies.

* Unlocked items in '''bold''' don't need any other project, while items in ''italics'' need another research or Proving Grounds project to be fully available.
* Projects with a yellow background form part of the Golden Path: the elements that progress the storyline.

== Research Time ==
The time to research a project is based on a points system: each project has a required amount of points to complete, and each hour a number of points is added depending on the number of scientists in the Avenger and how they're staffed.

At the start of the game, the only contribution to research comes from Tygan, counting as a scientist contributing 10 science points per hour, but he cannot be assigned to any scientist staff slots. Each additional scientist contributes another 5 points per hour, increasing to 10 if they're working in a laboratory, but if they're staffed in any other facility, they won't be able to contribute to research.

The "Basic Research" project will increase the base points per hour by 5, and it is infinitely repeatable, but each completion increases the cost of the next one by 2800 points.

== Basic Projects ==

These projects increase XCOM's efficiency at research and engineering, reducing staff requirements and increasing speed. They can be repeated indefinitely, but each time they are completed the time for the next repeat increases.

== Resistance ==

These projects unlock facilities for contacting the Resistance in more regions. In addition to the time invested, they now have an intel cost.

== ADVENT Autopsies ==

Once Alien Biotech has been researched, corpses recovered from some missions can be autopsied. If enough corpses are available, the autopsy will take no time to complete, but only one corpse will be consumed. These also include mechanized units, which can be broken down after their robotics have been investigated (which doubles as drone breakdown).

== Shadow Chamber Projects ==

These projects form a major part of the storyline, beginning when either the Blacksite mission is completed or when a Codex Brain is recovered from Skulljacking an ADVENT Officer. The first of these unlocks the Shadow Chamber, a facility needed for every project afterwards. These projects cost Intel, and they all belong to the Golden Path: they will unlock further storyline missions, including the final ones.

'''ADVENT MECs''' are AI operated mechanized combat units. Like most robotic units, they have above average amounts of armor, ignore fire and poison, cannot utilize cover, and are vulnerable to anti-mech weapons and protocols.

ADVENT will deploy both '''Heavy MECs''' and '''Superheavy MECs''' as threats increase as well as specialized [[ADVENT MEC Archer (LW2)|MEC Archers]].

The '''Berserker''' is a specially engineered Muton that focuses on their already strong propensity for hand to hand combat. Essentially a large pile of muscle and anger, the berserker is a dangerous opponent to leave unchecked.

Berserkers do take take cover and have no defensive capabilities. While it takes many shots to down one, they are fairly easy to hit.

Berserkers are distinguishable from standard Mutons by their size and complete lack of either armor or weapons.

ADVENT's Agenda (LW2)

2017-05-19T17:25:26Z

Hewhoispale: /* Missions and Vigilance Level */ Citation: http://www.pavonisinteractive.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=43379#p43391

While ADVENT's primary goal of completing the AVATAR Project is the same in LW 2 as the vanilla game, a number of changes have been introduced on how ADVENT (a.k.a. Strategic AI) will achieve its agenda, and how it will react to XCOM's attempts to stop the project. The major difference now is that ADVENT will conduct specific operations, or Activities, on any of the 16 world regions that will result in missions for XCOM. Each Activity has specific requirements and different results, depending on if ADVENT completes the activity or if the Resistance is able to detect and win the missions generated.

== AVATAR Project ==

The AVATAR project's progress is unknown to the player initially but has been increased from 12 to 20 'pips' required before ADVENT can win the game. To uncover the 'Doom Meter', a player must complete a series of missions to [[Missions (LW2)#Liberation Missions|liberate]] a region for the first time.

In order to generate the necessary research to complete the AVATAR project, ADVENT will build facilities throughout the world that will generate additional pips. XCOM can stop this process by either detecting the initial construction missions and winning them, or by assaulting the facility after it is build. However, the detection of an existing alien facility now requires either receiving a Facility Lead as a mission reward, or by the Resistance personnel on the havens generating enough intel.

ADVENT's progress on completing the AVATAR project can be delayed or accelerated by the Global Vigilance/Global Alert (GV/GA) values:
* After 3 Facilities are built, ADVENT will only build additional ones if the GV level isn't too superior to the Global Alert value (not safe to build new installations)
* If the GV is superior to the GA it will also delay by 10 hours the completion of a new 'pip' to the AVATAR progress bar for each 1 point of the difference between the GV/GA values

== ADVENT's Strategy ==

When determining the Activities that it will conduct on any of the 16 world regions to advance its goals, ADVENT's has 3 main variables determining its actions: Force (unit quality), Alert (unit quantity), and Vigilance (alarm caused by Resistance activities). These are further explained below. Each variable can also be expressed as global, reflecting the general situation, or as regional, representing the local values for each of the 16 regions.

===Force Level===

Force represents the type of units that ADVENT will deploy during missions. This value has a defined range of 1-20 and it will periodically increase by +1 when ADVENT completes the Activity called 'Scheduled Offworld Reinforcements'. This ADVENT build-up of more powerful and dangerous units cannot be stopped or even delayed.

The Scheduled Off World Reinforcements activity appears 21/18/14 days after the start of a campaign, depending on difficulty level. This activity has a cool down period of 16 days, which means that the maximum Force level 20 is reached between 325-316 days after game starts.

====Force Mechanics====
The Force level is always the same for all regions. All regions start with a Regional Force (RF) value of 1, and the Total Force level is the sum of all regions, or 16 at start and the automatic increases are applied to all regions at once.
* The Force level determines when additional soldiers appear on the Black Market, with the 2nd soldier available when Force level 7 is reached and the 3rd soldier unlocked at level 15, making those appearances as reliable indicators for when those two Force levels are reached, if XCOM hasn't faced those new improved ADVENT units on the field yet.
* The cost of Black Market personnel is also increased by 7.5% for each Force level raise of 1.

====Missions and Force Level====
* A low Force level gives a bonus to the detection of missions at the start of a campaign on Rookie and Veteran difficulties, although this advantage doesn't last long as the Force level gradually increases.
* The Force level for each mission can also be modified by certain ADVENT Activities:
** Scheduled Offworld Reinforcements +1
** Snare +1
** Foothold always generates missions with 18 force level, regardless of the Global Force level
** Rendezvous -2

=== Alert Level===

Despite its name, Alert refers to the number of troops available for ADVENT to use in missions, or to move to between regions by using the Reinforce Activity. ADVENT will also regularly increase its Alert numbers by bringing regularly emergency offworld reinforcements. The Regional Alert (RA) values are on Geoscape on each region's name, as 'ADVENT Strength', and the Global Alert (GA) level is the sum of all RAs and it is displayed as 'ADVENT's Legions' on the Resistance Management tab on the Commander's Quarters on the Avenger.

The RA determines the baseline difficulty regarding the number of ADVENT units encountered on missions in each region: each level of alert increases [[Infiltration (LW2)#Enemy Strength | base mission activity level]] by one category, in addition to mission and activity-specific modifiers.

While XCOM might be able to contain or even reduce ADVENT's numbers by detecting and winning specific missions, it is impossible to win by trying to reduce Global Alert to a zero - ADVENT can always summon more troops than the Resistance can destroy them, and the AVATAR project will eventually be completed.

====Alert Mechanics====

* All regions start with a Regional Alert of at least 1, except on Legendary where RA is level 2.
* Global Alert starting level is 15/20/30/40 for each difficulty level.
* There are 3 activities that ADVENT uses to create new legions and move them, although all can only appear from April onwards:
** The Reinforce Activity, made by land which results in a Supply Raid if detected by XCOM, will transfer 1 point of Alert level between regions if the activity is completed successfully. ADVENT will not reinforce a region through this method if its Alert level is already 15 or superior.
** The Emergency Offworld Reinforcements Activity is made by a UFO and will raise the Alert level by +1 in the region they take place and also +1 on an adjacent region. Despite its name, this activity happens regularly and has a cool-down period of 14/12/10/8 days depending on the difficulty level.
* The Super Emergency Offworld Reinforcements has a cool-off period of 21 days for all difficulty levels and it will give +2 Alert on the region and +1 Alert on 2 adjacent regions. This activity is triggered when the Global Vigilance exceeds the Global Alert value by 20 points.

====Missions and Alert Level====
* If XCOM detects and prevents the Troop Maneuvers Activity/Mission, will reduce the region's Alert level by +1.
* Liberating a region will destroy up to 4 points of the RA value, but any remaining troops will be distributed by the other regions still under ADVENT's control.
* The Emergency Offworld Reinforcements Activity has a cool-down period of 14/12/10/8 days depending on the difficulty level. It will raise the Alert level by +1 in the region they take place and also +1 on an adjacent region.
* The Super Emergency Offworld Reinforcements has a cool-off period of 21 days for all difficulty levels and it will give +2 Alert on the region and +1 Alert on 2 adjacent regions.
* The Alert level for each mission can also be modified by certain ADVENT Activities:
** Liberation: Rescue a Defector and Liberation: Hinder ADVENT Operations missions have a +3 modifier
** Reinforcements (Supply Raid missions) +3
** Scheduled Offworld Reinforcements (UFO mission) +1
** Emergency Offworld Reinforcements (UFO mission) +1
** Super Emergency Offworld Reinforcements (UFO mission) +2
** Snare +1
** Foothold always generates missions with 12 alert level, regardless of the Global Alert level
** Rendezvous -2
* Certain ADVENT Activities will also require specific Alert levels (min and/or max) to be activated

=== Vigilance Level===

Vigilance represents ADVENT's concern about XCOM/Resistance activities. This indicator is the most affected by the results of missions, since XCOM's successes will raise regional (and global) Vigilance, which will then trigger additional ADVENT Activities to deal with the Resistance, such as Counterinsurgency which result in Defend/Terror missions. High Vigilance levels will also stop missions from appearing like Jailbreak or free VIPs, as ADVENT increases its security measures on the alarmed region.

====Vigilance Mechanics====

Vigilance is represented by the Global Vigilance (GV) level, consisting of the sum of all Regional Vigilance (RV) levels. This is then converted to Net Global Vigilance by subtracting the Global Alert (GA) level. That is: NetGV = GV - GA. Conceptually, the net global vigilance is a measure of whether the aliens have over-extended by focusing too much on the resistance: high values mean ADVENT is dealing with more problems than they have troops, while low values means ADVENT has plenty of troops to deal with the rebel threat.

Net Global Vigilance is indicated on the Resistance Management tab as 'Global Resistance Threat'. This provides a general range of the net global vigilance, and thus the raw global vigilance (by simple math). These labels correspond to the NetGV level, with each step representing +10 additional Net Global Vigilance:
* Low (NetGV value below -10)
* Guarded (NetGV between -10 and 0)
* Elevated (0 to 10)
** At Elevated and above, i.e. when Net Global Vigilance is above 0, the AVATAR project progresses more slowly. Each point of Net Global Vigilance increases the time to generate a new AVATAR point by 10 hours.
* High (10 to 20)
* Severe (20 to 30)
** At Severe and above, the aliens gain access to a "Super Reinforcements" activity which creates twice as many Alert points.
** ''TODO: Does this replace the normal reinforcement activity or does it allow two reinforcements at once?''
* Extreme (above 30)

The initial value of the GV is determined randomly at start and it can vary between 16-39 points, and the starting values for each regional RV can vary between 1-4.

'''Additional Information'''
* Regional Vigilance decays automatically by 1 point every 7 days, so if a region is empty of any XCOM activity it will eventually return on a less alarmed status.

====Missions and Vigilance Level====

* XCOM successful missions in a region increase RV by +1, failures have no effect
* If the mission was created by ADVENT's Propaganda Activity, such as a Destroy Monument or Neutralize Target missions, completing it will increase the RV value by +3
* Some missions, like Supply Raids, Troop Maneuvers or Retaliations, will also reduce RV by 1 if completed successfully, cancelling out the automatic RV increase
** XCOM failure on the Retaliation missions will also reduce RV by either 2 or 4 points, depending on the mission
** Success in Troop Maneuvers will decrease RV on the region, but there's a 50% chance of increasing RV by +1 on an adjacent region
* If a region's Vigilance value exceeds the its Alert value, then ADVENT will try to bring additional troops into the region, either through the Reinforce or the Emergency Offworld Reinforcements activities.
* Certain ADVENT Activities will also require specific Vigilance levels (min and/or max) to be activated
* Liberating a region removes all vigilance from the region, increases vigilance by 3 in each adjacent region, and increases it by 1 in every other region.

==ADVENT Activities==

The missions in Long War 2 are defined through ADVENT activities, which are performed by the aliens on each regional to achieve their goals, which will then result in tactical missions, if the alien activity is detected by the Resistance.

Each Activity can have several settings or requirements for it to be activated:
* Priority - weight for mission to be chosen
* Rebel Income - amount of detection collected by rebels with Intel jobs for the mission to be detected
* Detection - daily pct of the mission being detected, once the Rebel Income requirement is achieved
* Force & Alert Modifiers - the effect the activity will have on the ADVENT Regional Force and Alert levels during any mission(s) it generates
* Min/Max Vigilance - the range of Regional Vigilance values required for ADVENT to activate the Activity in a region
* Min/Max Alert - the range of Regional Alert values, as the previous setting
* Mission Tree - the number and sequence of missions generated by the Activity. In some cases (Liberation) it is required to complete the initial missions to unlock the rest of of the missions on the tree, while in other Activities like Invasion, detecting and completing the first mission will prevent the other missions on the tree from taking place.
* Mission Families - the type of missions that can generated (chosen randomly) for each step of the Mission Tree
* Duration - the amount of hours that the mission can be detected, once it is active. After it is detected the remaining time is the time available to infiltrate the mission (if infiltration is possible).
* EVAC Modifier - the number of turns added to Skyranger evacuation during missions spawned by this Activity
* Infiltration Modifier - the number of hours added/removed from infiltration requirements for any missions generated by this Activity

===Activity Tables===



'''Liberation activities''' allow XCOM to free a region from the aliens' control. Every alien-controlled region has a liberation activity present at all times: if the mission expires without being detected (or is attempted and failed) then it will immediately respawn.

'''Rebel activities''' are common missions that help build the resistance. They tend to be easier to detect than other types of activity. Nothing happens when these missions expire so there is no penalty for ignoring them.

Each region can have up to two of these activities at once. Each activity can be present in up to two regions in the world at any given time.

'''Alien progression activities''' advance the aliens' goals or increase their power. These activities tend to be very difficult for XCOM to detect. Completing these missions (if detected) should be a high priority, as this is the only way to slow the aliens' progression.

'''Rendezvous''' is a special activity. Normal rebels don't contribute intel towards the detection of the Rendezvous missions, only soldier advisors do. It's coded as a 2 part mission where you detect the first part (it has the longest duration of any mission) but then the mission immediately moves to the second part which is automatically detected. The final mission is that second part which explain why you never detect Rendezvous with long durations.

The '''Muton''', as it always has, serves as heavy infantry for the aliens. They are armed with a plasma rifle (with bayonet), plasma grenade, some armor, and above average stats across the board, making them well rounded and effective while brawling at close to medium range.

Muton leaders in the field are called [[Muton Centurion (LW2)|Centurions]], they possess additional training and skills. They are identifiable from standard mutons by their red armor and face covering masks. The far more dangerous [[Muton_Elite(LW2)|Elites]] have purple armor and sophisticated helmets.

Officers (LW2)

2017-05-19T14:44:32Z

Hewhoispale: Some 1.3 updates

Officers are regular soldiers who have received additional training and responsibilities as leaders in the field for XCOM operations. Best used as formal leaders for specific recurring squads, Officers grant important tactical and strategic bonuses for those soldiers, some of which improve the more missions those squad members go on. Bear in mind that only one Officer at a time can serve as a mission leader (the highest ranking Officer, highest combat rank if tied, or highest Will if both ranks are tied); other officers on that mission do not have access to their special abilities.

Even the lowest ranking officer gets access to the powerful "Command" ability, which allows them to grant any ally an additional action at the cost of their own action, as well as the "Intervention" ability, which exchanges your Intel resource for an extension of the mission timer. Well-employed, Officers improves the reliability and survivability of your squad even in the face of unknown, unexpected, or inconvenient factors. There is some selflessness inherent to the Officer's duty, and use of many of their abilities will cost you opportunities to employ their combat skills at the same time, so make sure the squad you assign them to shores up the officer's blind spots that emerge from use of their special abilities.

A few important notes:

* Many officer abilities refer to the "Command Range" of an officer; this is an area of effect centered on the officer, inside which these abilities apply, and outside which they do not. The higher ranking the Officer, the larger this area. You can check this ability by pressing the green button on the upper right corner of the command screen, which toggles the display of this area.
* Officers are better than non-officers at rooting out Faceless spies when assigned to Haven Advisor duty. The higher the rank, the stronger this effect. This combined with the Lead By Example perk (see below) makes them excellent for kickstarting recruitment new havens, as their officer abilities help make up for your lower numbers on faceless hunts and defense missions.
* Get Some, Fall Back, Oscar Mike, Command, and Incoming do not effect "civilians" (i.e. VIPs, unarmed rebels)

== Training and Abilities ==

Officers can be trained via the Guerrilla Tactics School, and are unavailable for the duration of the training period (4-12 days depending on level) unless the training is cancelled. Once initially trained, all Officers are automatically granted the following perks:

{| class="wikitable" width="50%"

Officers can gain the following abilities as they rank up. An officer's rank increases as their normal level does. Each new ability must be trained by spending time in the Guerrilla Tactics School.

== Candidates for Officer Training ==

Any soldier class (including Psi Operative) can receive officer training once they are no longer a Rookie. Here are some notes on class suitability for the role:

'''Ranger''': Good. Rangers have access to a variety of defensive perks that can make your officer hard to kill in a fight, and their tendency to already serve in the mid and back lines means that they're usually well-positioned to catch everyone in their command range and line of sight. You will usually want to favor passive or free action abilities in this officer's training; "Fall Back" and "Incoming" are two good choices. Alternatively, use their Light 'Em Up ability to maintain an attack per round while also issuing orders.

'''Assault''': Poor. The Assault role is a hazardous job, especially reliant on actions and mobility, and managing the hazards your officers have to deal with is important to keeping them alive.

'''Gunner''': Situational. Often times you'd rather have the gunner shooting than barking orders, especially if they're applying shred to tough targets. That being said, if your squad is already loaded in firepower and cover-busting effects, a SAW-specced Gunner can double as an officer without too much trouble. Like the Ranger, passive and free action abilities are ideal if you want to keep your damage output up.

'''Technical''': Good. Technicals have access to the largest number of concurrent defensive perks in the game, so even if you're rushing them forward to flamethrower the enemy, the combination of Formidable, Burnout, Fortify, and Tactical Sense will make your Officer an unappealing target. Also, since the Technical's trademark weapons are already charge based, doubling them as your officer increases their utility and gives them things to do when heavy weapons are unsuitable for the task at hand.

'''Shinobi''': Excellent. Officer abilities do not break concealment when used, allowing you to keep a forward observer Shinobi relevant without breaking their stealth, or simply retain the officer's stealth during a firefight for use later in a mission. An Officer Shinobi is also the vital half of the Shinobi-Specialist one-two punch that can effortlessly tackle most hacking and prison-break missions, using their Command to get the Specialist or mission package out of harms way after completing to the objective.

'''Sharpshooter''': Poor... for traditional snipers. Sharpshooters are either too isolated or too busy shooting to serve as an effective squad leader, and don't get access to that many defensive perks. However, there is a sharpshooter archetype that synergizes extremely well with officer abilities: take everything from the center of the tree. Once the sharpshooter hits Sergeant rank this setup kicks into high gear, providing your tactical teams with a concealed scout that can contribute meaningfully to every battle. In one turn this officer can observe the next pod of enemies to avoid pulling in four new mutons, light up two key foes with a holotargeter (thanks to rapid targeting), give a critical soldier an extra action, and provide passive benefits through defilade and lead by example, all without breaking concealment. Avoid the urge to also train in pistol abilities unless you can justify the extended time off the field.

'''Grenadier''': Good. As another class that leans on charge-based core abilities and with some access to defensive perks, Grenadiers benefit nicely from having officer perks, as you don't always want to solve a problem with a precious grenade, especially on longer missions. Cooldown based abilities, such as Focus Fire, are ideal picks here. Rapid Deployment is particularly useful, allowing this officer to throw a defensive grenade in the same turn as issuing an order if a surprised group of enemies requires an immediate reaction.

'''Specialist''': Excellent. Further cementing their identity as toolboxes for any mission, Officer training gives specialists even more options to confront a particular problem, especially tools that don't drain precious charges. Given how little the Specialist's primary weapon is employed, little opportunity cost is paid in use of Officer abilities, so go crazy on those action-costing abilities, such as Get Some, Jammer, and particularly Focus Fire.

'''Psi Operative''': Situational. As Psi Operatives will already spend a lot of time "in the tank" training Psionic abilities, further sidelining them for officer training can be a prohibitive opportunity cost. However, its important to note that Psi Operatives ascend their ranks much faster than regular soldier classes, so if you get psionics early, you can quickly get a colonel or field commander trained for some GTS upgrades and strategic benefits. The Officer haven bonus also stacks with the Psi operative haven bonus for detecting faceless, so you can quickly sanitize the globe of faceless spies with these soldiers. On the battlefield, Psi Operatives already have a lot of cooldown-based abilities competing for attention, particularly the ever-valuable Stasis and Mind Merge abilities, so its viable but not excellent.

The role of the Faceless has been significantly expanded in XCOM 2; no longer just a menace on the tactical field, Faceless can infiltrate XCOM's rebel havens. Infiltrated Faceless operate at reduced efficiency when performing a task, siphoning supplies and increasing vulnerability to retaliations.

Identifying Faceless infiltrators requires a soldier to be an adviser in the suspected haven, eventually starting a [[Missions_(LW2)#Retaliation_Missions|rendezvous]] mission. This will pit the adviser and some of the remaining rebels in the infiltrated haven against one or more infiltrators and an ADVENT patrol during their meetup.

Faceless can also be found during [[Missions_(LW2)#Liberation_Missions|certain VIP]] missions where a large portion of the civilian populace are concealed faceless, during retaliations on havens they've infiltrated, and during certain [[Dark Events (LW2)|dark events]] as concealed civilians. Faceless will not appears as part of normal alien units outside of rendezvous missions.

Tactically, Faceless are surprising fast for their appearance, capable of regenerating health, and possess a melee attack that can hit a wide swath while tearing apart cover.

The '''Sidewinder''' is a more mobile variant of the [[Viper (LW2)|Viper]], which will more often than not attempt to flank your soldiers. Even more fragile and slippery than standard Vipers, they are equipped with a close range plasma weapon that can deal incredible amounts of damage to exposed targets.

The '''ADVENT Stun Lancer''' was initially developed by ADVENT to serve as less then lethal crowd control, that has changed. In the face of the increasing XCOM threat, these soldiers have been re-tasked as brutal, close-in melee fighters. Their high mobility and dangerous charge makes them an important unit to lock down.

* The stun lance has high accuracy bonus and has a chance to stun a unit for a single action or potentially knock the unit unconscious for the remainder of the deployment.
* Long War stun lancers are more likely to fire their rifle than in vanilla if a good melee target is unavailable.
* Stun Lancer threat is variable as a campaign progresses as they have a number of high impact Dark Events available to them.

Hewhoispale: /* Rocket Scatter */ some info on what does and does not effect rockets

== Primary Weapons ==

=== Assault Rifle ===
{{main|Assault Rifle (LW2)}}
Assault Rifles are the default primary weapon of most soldiers within modern militaries. Extremely versatile and "middle of the road" in every way.

=== Cannon ===
{{main|Cannon (LW2)}}
Cannons can only be fielded by [[Gunner (LW2)|Gunner]] soldiers; 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.

{{Range (LW2)/LMG All}}

=== Submachine Guns ===
{{main|SMG (LW2)}}
SMG-type weapons can be used by most classes. They do lower damage than assault rifles, have smaller clips and have more falloff at range, but increase mobility. They also slightly decrease infiltration time for the soldier carrying them.

Using an SMG increases the soldier's Mobility by 3, and reduces enemy detection radius for that soldier by 12.5%.

==Auxiliary Weapons==
=== Pistols ===
{{main|Pistol (LW2)|Advanced Warfare Center (LW2)#Pistol Perks}}
The Pistol is now a utility slot item and can be equipped on any soldier. Pistol related perks are trainable in the Advanced Warfare Center. Officers also have a few abilities related to pistols, including the ability to give one to a civilian ally.
{{Pistols (LW2)}}
{{Pistols DLC 2 (LW2)}}
{{Range (LW2)/Midshort Conventional}}

== Secondary Weapons ==
Secondary weapons are available only to [[Soldiers (LW2)|Soldier]] classes. These weapons require specific training and each Soldier class can use only one type of special weapon.

=== Combat Knife ===
The Combat Knife is used by the [[Gunner (LW2)|Gunner]] class. While it is weaker than the [[Swords (LW2)|Sword]], this melee weapon is highly accurate and has a higher innate chance to crit.
{{Combat Knives (LW2)}}

=== Arc Thrower ===
The Arc Thrower is used by the [[Assault (LW2)|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.
{{Arc Throwers (LW2)}}

===GREMLIN===
The GREMLIN is used by the [[Specialist (LW2)|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.
{{GREMLINS (LW2)}}

===Grenade Launcher===
The Grenade Launcher is used by the [[Grenadier (LW2)|Grenadier]] class. They provide extended range and blast radius bonuses over [[Equipment (LW2)#Grenades|Grenades]] thrown by other classes, and grenades launched by these do not suffer the cooldown preventing other classes from using grenades every turn
{{Grenade Launchers (LW2)}}

===Holotargeter===
The Holotargeter is used by the [[Sharpshooter (LW2)|Sharpshooter]] class. Holotargeters have squadsight range and apply an aim bonus to any targeted enemies. The Sharpshooter can specialize in various skills to augment the Holotargeter with additional bonuses and allow targeting of multiple enemies in a single turn.
{{Holotargeters (LW2)}}

===Psi Amp===
The Psi Amp is used by the [[Psi Operative (LW2)|Psi Operative]] class. They are used for all psionic attacks.
{{Psi Amps (LW2)}}

=== Sawed-Off Shotgun ===
The Sawed-Off Shotgun is used by the [[Ranger (LW2)|Ranger]] class. 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.
{{Sawed-Off Shotguns (LW2)}}

{{Range (LW2)/Sawed Off}}

=== Sword ===
The Sword is used by the [[Shinobi (LW2)|Shinobi]] class.
{{Swords (LW2)}}
{{Swords DLC 2 (LW2)}}

=== Gauntlet ===
The Gauntlet is used by the [[Technical (LW2)|Technical]] class.
{{Gauntlets (LW2)}}

==Heavy Weapons==
Heavy weapons are carried by the Technical class and other soldiers in EXO suits. Technicals carry the Gauntlet, which has an integrated rocket launcher and flamethrower. Technicals in an EXO suit can't equip different heavy weapons, but can carry extra rockets and flamethrower fuel in its heavy weapon slot. Other soldiers can carry different heavy weapons, but not rocket launchers or flamethrowers.

|-
|Shredstorm Cannon

|-
|Plasma Blaster
|Fires a beam in a straight line, penetrating walls, cover and armor.
|}

=== 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%. Doable. On the other hand if they moved before firing, you want 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:
*[[Equipment_(LW2)#Personal_Combat_Sims|PCS: Perception]]
*[[Advanced_Warfare_Center_(LW2)|Steady Hands]]
*[[Advanced_Warfare_Center_(LW2)|Aim (Perk)]]
*[[Perk_List_(LW2)|Lone wolf]]
*[[Equipment_(LW2)#Personal_Combat_Sims|PCS: Combat Rush]]
*[[Perk_List_(LW2)|Combat Fitness]]
*Aim progression on stat bonuses from leveling up

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)
* [[Equipment_(LW2)#Ammunition|Tracer rounds]]
* [[Equipment_(LW2)#Personal_Combat_Sims|PCS: Hyper reactive pupils]]

The '''ADVENT Rocketeer''' is a trooper variant equipped with a gauntlet-mounted rocket launcher. They are extremely dangerous against grouped up XCOM soldiers, as their rocket will do AoE damage and potentially remove any cover for those troops. It is recommended that they are dealt with swiftly before they can fire their rockets.

|}

* Rocketeers seem reluctant to use rockets on single targets, though their area of effect is large enough that avoiding being grouped is non-trivial.
* Rocketeers will not fire rockets as a second action, so threatening them with flanking actions can dissuade them from rocketing as they will be inclined to scamper to cover.

The '''Sectoid''' enjoys a somewhat elevated position in the alien hierarchy since the formation of the ADVENT coalition. Extensively modified with human genetics, the Sectiod is much more physically imposing than they have been in the past. Armed with a wrist mounted plasma weapon and powerful psionics, they serve as either patrol leaders for ADVENT grunts, or support for more independent aliens patrols.

Eventually, '''Sectoid Commanders''' will be seen in the field. Possessing more psionic power than common Sectoids, they are substantively more dangerous.

* Mindspin is resisted using the target's will score, making Sectoids very effective against shaken soldiers.
* Disorienting or killing a Sectoid will remove active psionic effects, which includes de-animating psi-zombies.
* Sectoids will reanimate corpses in view even if their pod hasn't been activated.
* Sectoids have a hidden perk called "Sectoid Melee Vulnerability" have causes them to take extra damage from melee attacks.
* In Long War 2, Sectoids are more likely to take flank shots than they were in vanilla.

The '''Naja''' serve as marksnakes, bolstering the alien forces with direct fire support. They have high accuracy and can shoot at squad sight range with their plasma rifles. To compensate, they are less mobile and have less dodge than other vipers.

The '''Naja''' serve as marksnakes, bolstering the alien forces with direct fire support. They have high accuracy and can shoot at squad sight range with their plasma rifles. To compensate, they are less mobile and have less dodge than other vipers.

The '''Sidewinder''' is a more mobile variant of the [[Viper (LW2)|Viper]], which will more often than not attempt to flank your soldiers. Even more fragile and slippery than standard Vipers, they are equipped with a close range plasma weapon that can deal incredible amounts of damage to exposed targets.

* Sidewinder AI makes them much more likely to flank and shoot targets compared to standard Vipers.
* Poison spit is a single action and not turn ending, leaving sidewinders like to spit and shoot if they unable to exploit a flank.
* The Sidewinder's plasma weapon has SMG-class range fall-off, resulting in Sidewinders getting close instead of staying back and sniping.

Dark Events (LW2)

2017-03-13T18:34:59Z

Hewhoispale: Updates based on https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kcM-49VwQdkqsyR2RtBfzQJrDmtaw46sWdFgfrmorLw/edit#gid=974252575

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

Dark Events in Long War 2 come in two forms: '''tactical research upgrades''' and '''strategic operations'''. The former represent ADVENT building up the strength of its forces over time, and are permanent once applied; the latter represents the Aliens conducting operations of its own to cripple XCOM at the strategic layer, and last for a designated time frame.

Much like vanilla Dark Events, certain designated missions can be conducted to interrupt and prevent the Dark Event from occurring - but unlike vanilla, you will not be given the opportunity to do so if you do not have contact with the region the Dark Event spawns in. Since the only way to identify them is to increase your resistance network as wide as possible, it is inevitable that some Dark Events will trigger outside of your coverage regardless of how diligent of a commander you are.

==Tactical Research Upgrades==

Over time, the [[Advent (LW2) | ADVENT]] and [[Alien_Life_Forms_(LW2) | Alien]] ground forces will gain increases in combat effectiveness, as denoted by additional perks and equipment. Each upgrade applies to a limited set of enemy types, and only a certain random percentage of enemies will actually have the upgrade.

These Dark Events are ''permanent'' once triggered; this system serves as the Long War 2 equivalent of Long War 1's [[Alien Research (Long War) | Alien Research]], where aliens gain boosts to stats and bonus perks over time. In this case, however, the bonuses are random and tied to interruptible Dark Events, so you have a chance of encountering powerful upgrades early on or of stopping upgrades from occurring.

==Strategic Operations==

ADVENT will attempt to place severe limitations on XCOM operations at the strategic level, in much the same way that many Dark Events functioned in vanilla. Fortunately, while they are crippling, they are of limited duration.

The '''Sectopod''' is a heavy, mechanized war machine deployed by the aliens. Having both the highest durability of all of the Alien's mechanized units and the highest hack defense, there are no trivial solutions to an engaged Sectopod.

* High Stance is a free action.
* Firing it's primary weapon does not end the Sectopod's turn, allowing it to take additional actions.
* The Sectopod can (and will, even when non-alerted) walk through cover, destroying it in the process.
* Sectopods are immune to the effects of "Red Fog".

The '''ADVENT Officer''' serves as a squad leader for ADVENT patrols. They possess better training (or alternatively "stricter mind control") than most other ADVENT forces and can mark targets, making them priority targets in prolonged firefights.

They are distinguishable from other ADVENT forces by their more ornate armor and half-capes.

* As a marked target will be easier to hit, this can have the effect of causing the AI to focus fire on the marked unit in a pitched firefight.
* Killing an ADVENT Officer will remove their mark. Otherwise, it lasts for two turns.

The '''ADVENT Trooper''' serves as the baseline of ADVENT forces. Unremarkable in every way, the trooper is distinguishable by their lack of training or features that elevate the rest of the ADVENT forces.

Initially ADVENT troopers are as threatening as the XCOM rookies they are thrown up against, not very. As the campaign progresses, '''Advanced''' and '''Elite Troopers''' will appear, possessing better equipment, training, and perhaps most notably, fragmentation grenades.

The '''ADVENT Scout''' is a trooper variant that specializes in mobility and detection. While not overtly threatening on their own, their ability to avoid incoming damage while ignoring reaction fire can make for complications and their improved detection capacity can be a threat to concealed units.

The ADVENT Scout does not have advanced variants.

Hewhoispale:

Question: Is there a consensus on how to organize enemy information? Do we want separate pages for each variation of every enemy? Group all upgrades of a base unit on one page? Stack up all of the information on to one giant mega-page like LW1's page? [[User:Hewhoispale|Hewhoispale]] ([[User talk:Hewhoispale|talk]]) 17:35, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
:Due to the variety of LW2's units, I decided to simply add photos of all the different variations, but I don't think each should have its own page, but rather have a single page for Grenadier, Sergeant, Archon, Sectoid, etc. [[User:Hobbes|Hobbes]] ([[User talk:Hobbes|talk]]) 18:41, 6 March 2017 (UTC)
:System at the moment is a picture for each unit that has a different model in game, and the link points to the page for the basic version, which explains that they're actually variations of the same type. It works well for the aliens. It might work better for the ADVENT when we figure out which are actually variations of each other so we can categorise them properly (First Sergeant is clearly an advanced Sergeant. Is Commando an advanced Scout? Is Shock Trooper an advanced Vanguard?) [[User:Binkyuk|Binkyuk]] ([[User talk:Binkyuk|talk]]) 11:28, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
::Here are the perks assigned for the ADVENT elite units. Sergeants have Fire Control 25 and Tactical Sense, First Sergeant additionally has Locked On. Scout has Shadowstep, Lone Wolf and Will to Survive. Commando has Shadowstep, Evasive and Low Profile. Shock Trooper has Aggression, Bring Em On and Executioner. And finally Vanguard has Close Combat Specialist, Close and Personal, Hard Target and Lone Wolf. From the perks it looks to me that the 4 last units have designed all with different roles.

Hewhoispale: Sectoid commanders don't really need their an extra page just because they have extra lobes

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>

ADVENT's forces have been greatly expanded in Long War 2 to include a wide variety of troopers. Immediately upon starting a new campaign, one will immediately face some of these new varieties - such as the Advent Engineer or Advent Gunner - all of which possess different abilities. Prepare yourself.
