Saboteur Class (WOTC)

Description
Description
Freshly available for WOTC, the Saboteur is a sniper/grenade launcher class with trees that focus on either destroying cover or taking advantage of flanked enemies. It has 12 new perks, 5 of which (Disabling Shot, Shatter Shot, Demolitionist, Sprinter, and Quick Scope) are Training Center enabled. It gets Snap Shot at Squaddie.

Perks
Squaddie:
Snap Shot: Shoot your sniper rifle after taking an action at a -25 penalty to hit.

Launch Grenade: As vanilla.

Corporal:
Compensation: Reduces Snap Shot penalty by 10 to -15.

Shrapnel Cannon: Fire a special round from your grenade launcher that deals damage and destroys cover in a cone (damage scales with grenade launcher upgrades).

Sergent:
Disabling Shot: Fire a standard shot that, if it hits, forces the target to reload before firing again.

Shatter Shot: Fire a standard shot that, hit or miss, destroys the target's cover.

Lieutenant:
Perfect Positioning: Gain +15 aim and +2 damage against flanked targets.

Demolitionist: All your grenades (barring Flashbang, Smoke, and Frost) gain an additional frag grenade's worth of cover destruction.

Captain:
Sprinter: Gain +3 Mobility in combat.

Danger Zone: Gain +2 grenade radius.

Major:
Salvo: As vanilla.

Heavy Ordnance: As vanilla.

Colonel:
Quick Scope: Your first shot on a flanked target each turn does not cost an action.

Devastation: Fire a special round from your grenade launcher once per mission that flattens cover over a massive area, but deals no damage.

GTS:
Exposed Weakness: Your attacks gain +15 crit against targets that are flanked and targets that cannot use cover.

Thanks
Thanks go to xylthixlm for XModBase (which this uses) and the icon pack that all the new perk icons come from.

Thanks to Long War Studios for the code for Snap Shot.

Thanks to -bg- for putting me on the path to making Demolitionist work.

Thanks to Lanford for the idea that led to Compensation.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see that you added the Gameplay term/tag as well, which is why the problem occurs: Searching for specific Gameplay changes, Shouldn't include a Specific term/tag for Soldier Class, right?

It... has the Soldier Class tag? I'm not sure what your complaint is here.

This mod is for the SOLDIER CLASS "term", would be EXTREMELY useful to all of us, if you could just add the term/tag correctly...thanks

is there a way I can easily add the "fire weapon" ability to this class? I've altered it to be able to use different primary types, but it can only snap shot with non-sniper weapons.

I like the idea of the class, but they can't hit for anything. Even if Saboteur doesn't move, his base chance to hit is in the 40's. I sent him on so many covert ops just to up his aim. Was pretty useful by the end of the game, though.

Nope, sorry. Not really doing any XCOM modding anymore.
Emong  [author] 5 Mar, 2019 @ 2:50pm 
It should.

Will this work in ongoing campaign?

If you're gonna give them a sniper rifle, at least give them Squadsight too.

I like the concept but the ranges on the grenadier and sharpshooter abilities seem to be fighting with one another more than they synergize with one another, and it's not really mobile enough to take advantage of its flanking bonuses (yes it can destroy cover, but by the time it gets another turn, the target is either in cover again or dead). The class struggles to have something to do in close engagements. All in all, it feels more like a class that combines the biggest weaknesses of sharpshooter and grenadier, rather than their biggest strengths. (I don't expect it to be without weaknesses, but it feels more weak than strong at the moment and struggles for a real niche on the squad.)
