Third campaign without this class showing up at all. Granted, heavily modded campaigns with additional classes but are they really THIS rare lol? Maybe a method to make them appear a little more regularly as mission rewards. I get the thinking in making them difficult to acquire, they're a damn powerful class, but I'd Iike to see one or two in a hundred hours of gameplay lol. Maybe I'm just unlucky.

It is still needed as a dependency.

I can't make normal attack and I can't kick either. Is this how this class supposed to work?

Using the TTC (teleportation) console command, I found that it attacks an enemy within a 1-cell radius if the skill is inactive anymore.

My character, the stormrider, can't walk, but all other skills work.

I have question ... for me it personally is impossible ( okay possible but almost never happens) to get this class. Which I like (had it once , only once ...). I got xcomdataclass.ini with my heavily moded lwotc ... and there is no stormrider listed at all there . So where to make it happen in my lwotc campaign? I don't think it was supposed to be THAT rare aka never ever occur on random promotion. Also noone uses psionic overhaul 3 with lame psi underlays and no psi amps (btw absolutelly terrible idea) - new LWOTC 1.2 reflects that so maybe its time to actually make this class trainable from GTS since you won't make it PSI operator anymore. Logically speaking only reason this the case was because of psi overhaul.

It is not possible to equip blade upgrades with my stormrider on the primary weapon slot. Only on the secondary weapon slot. Does that mean that stormriders are stuck forever with the initial 3-5 dmg blade?

for some reason the "Fleche" doesnt work properly and never deals more damage then the normal melee attack. is there a way to fix it? (either through an update or telling me what to change in the ini files) if not dont worry the class works either way XD

Do you think the only single Will stat gain of 5 points when advancing from Squaddie (as opposed to two gains of 4 points each for some other classes) is intentional? It's a bit rought if one starts with a minimal Will rookie. Mandatory Will PCS for the rest of the service, basically.
4rrakis 22 Apr, 2024 @ 2:01pm 
It is not a bug, it is a method to make those gts perks unobtainable. From the mod description: "In usual LWOTC fashion, class-specific GTS Tactics are disabled here. The abilities from them can now be acquired in the XCOM row decks."
Roca_Blade 22 Apr, 2024 @ 11:30am 
In the gts tactics screen it says i need 19,998 scientists to aquire it and I'm wondering if that's a bug or not
KhaosHawk92 1 Apr, 2024 @ 6:19pm 
I've stumbled on to a little issue with Blitz Kick, it says i have no action points for some reason
4rrakis 27 Mar, 2024 @ 2:35am 
Sure, you can install LWotC Shadow Ops, but you will still need WotC Shadow Ops as well.
MizKai 27 Mar, 2024 @ 1:56am 
@4rrakis but i can install the lwotc version of shadow ops? cuz lwotc shadow ops versions rebalance most of the skills for the orig shadow ops version..
4rrakis 12 Mar, 2024 @ 12:41pm 
You need the non-LWotC mod as a perk pack, but don't subscribe to the LW2 mods. You can ignore those, since LWotC already has those weapons and perks included.
MizKai 11 Mar, 2024 @ 9:35pm 
should i use the lwotc shadow ops ? or teh shadow ops perks pack that is recommended in this mod. cuz the shadow ops needs lw2 mods and lwotc won't work with lw2 nods
Lunar Nepneus 11 Mar, 2024 @ 12:04am 
Trying to narrow down a mod conflict once i installed Mec Troopers for LW, everything within this class disappeared like the skill tree and the like. Even the icon is missing, made the mistake of subscribing to all so I can't really narrow down what it could be. Don't really want to play without this mod :(
hottt3 15 Aug, 2023 @ 1:42pm 
@Aruno Yes. I use "Choose my Class" in tandem with "[WOTC] Disable Any Class GTS Redux". This lets me choose any class I want (with the due settings), or fine tune the the possibility of appearing any class I want in the list of choices.
Aruno 26 Jul, 2023 @ 8:29pm 
does "Choose my Class" mod help in finding this class or am I shooting myself in the foot by having it?
4rrakis 26 Mar, 2023 @ 7:37am 
No problem!
alekiodude 26 Mar, 2023 @ 7:19am 
thank you so much been looking for this class forever
4rrakis 26 Mar, 2023 @ 3:28am 
Sure there is. Go to this mod's config folder (steam/steamapps/workshop/content/268500/2349299686/config), open XComClassData.ini and change the number in this line from 0 to 1:
+NumInForcedDeck = 0
Now the class should be trainable in gts.
alekiodude 25 Mar, 2023 @ 7:14pm 
is there a way to set it so i can train them this is my 3rd playthrough without a single one
4rrakis 25 Mar, 2023 @ 6:24pm 
They are not trainable by design. You get them as mission rewards or random promotions.
alekiodude 25 Mar, 2023 @ 6:20pm 
how do you get a stormrider? ive never had one and i cant train them in psi lab or guerilla school
4rrakis 28 Jan, 2023 @ 2:15pm 
None that I know of.
headdy 28 Jan, 2023 @ 2:13pm 
Is their a way to prevent Storm-rider GTS perks fro showing up in the first place in the menu?
4rrakis 26 Dec, 2022 @ 12:54pm 
Maybe there is a way in the config files, I am not at my pc so I can't check. But even if it is possible it will just cost you supplies for nothing, since those perks upgrade the original Stormrider class which this mod disables and replaces with a new version. Besides, according to the description a LWotC Stormrider can roll those perks in their XCOM row.
Commander & Chief B.O.G 26 Dec, 2022 @ 12:04pm 
Is there any way of enabling them?
4rrakis 18 Dec, 2022 @ 2:35pm 
Those requirements are a way to disable those upgrades, just ignore them.
Commander & Chief B.O.G 18 Dec, 2022 @ 1:31pm 
Are the upgrade in the Guerrila Tactics schoole supposed to require 20k scientists or am I missing something?
Shefango 7 Dec, 2022 @ 3:34am 
hey, hey. Found a bug, where Bloodlust ability in x-com row cause whole game to crush, when it's activated and I try to attack someone with dual blades.
Fooliscious 28 Nov, 2022 @ 10:01pm 
Figured that out, i had two dual wield mods running. disabled one and it fixed it. I am not seeing the option to empty the secondary weapon slot though.
Fooliscious 28 Nov, 2022 @ 9:35pm 
My stormrider is equipping a gun in the primary slot. I can't equip a melee weapon in the primary ( i can secondary though). Anytime i do a melee attack it runs up to an enemy and fires the gun point blank which is pretty funny. Gun is being treated as a melee weapon in regards to all the perks. Not sure what to do.
Hiro 23 Nov, 2022 @ 10:50pm 
Thank you for the answer @Kiruka.
I can upgrade the swords on any other class that can equip the swords eg the assault infantry class which uses the sword as a secondary.

It's only for the stormrider class which has the sword as a primary weapon, that I get a grayed out "upgrade equipment" button and a message that states "current primary weapon can't be upgraded".

This ofc prevents me from using attachment on the other equipment the class can use eg armor or psi amps etc.
Kiruka  [author] 23 Nov, 2022 @ 4:25pm 
@kill_the_hippy Upgrade slots for weapons is one of the things that can be configured in LWOTC via the XComLW_Overhaul.ini file.
Hiro 23 Nov, 2022 @ 1:51pm 
Is there a way to enable upgrades for the main weapon or did I mess something up with my mod list?
Argyre 21 Oct, 2022 @ 1:45am 
it turned out to be trained thanks to the comment of 4rrakis, for which I thank him very much, but the problem with ballistic shields remains. their use does not add armor
takis7 20 Oct, 2022 @ 11:10am 
I get the slash or crash thing also.
50/50 to crash when trying to move
Argyre 20 Oct, 2022 @ 2:12am 
Good afternoon. can you help with getting a fighter in a guerrilla school?
And another question: should ballistic shield skills add health when using skills?
Thank you all
The Tactician 18 Sep, 2022 @ 6:39am 
@Kiruka, is there anything one can do to either diminish or eliminate the 'Fleche Bug'? I am getting a bit tired of restarting the game every turn because my Stormrider has to roll a dice on whether she will slash or crash...
4rrakis 2 Sep, 2022 @ 1:58pm 
No tech is required.
cwconweiss86 2 Sep, 2022 @ 1:56pm 
does having a recruit get promoted to stormrider require psionics tech? i have run like 1.5 lwotc runs and not seen any
4rrakis 29 Jul, 2022 @ 11:46am 
No problem, you're welcome!
Alan Sylver 29 Jul, 2022 @ 11:41am 
Tried it out and the class appears in Commander's Choice. Thanks for the help. I overlooked that one.
4rrakis 29 Jul, 2022 @ 9:43am 
You have to edit the file XComClassData.ini from this mod (folder 268500/2349299686). Set NumInForcedDeck to 1 and NumInDeck to 4.
Alan Sylver 29 Jul, 2022 @ 9:42am 
Maybe this would be possible if I allow GTS to roll this class, but I don't find the corresponding config entry.
Alan Sylver 29 Jul, 2022 @ 9:35am 
How do I get this to work if I am using Commander's Choice? It seems to find all custom classes except this one. I get this may be for balancing, but it prevents me from picking this class at all, as the normal luck-based way is disabled with Commander's Choice.
turtle 24 Jul, 2022 @ 7:29pm 
What's the mod that lets me equip a ballistic shield for my stormrider? And would I be able to install it mid-campaign with no issues?
