Steam-fællesskab :: [WOTC] Paladin Shield Bursters

Lebowskichild 5. juli kl. 6:15

Thank you, @RustyDios. Your work in the community is top notch.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 5. juli kl. 6:11

To my knowledge, yes. During a non-tactical mission save.

Lebowskichild 5. juli kl. 5:57

@RustyDios Is this mod safe to add mid campaign?

Alexandr 25. jan. kl. 16:04

Nice, Rusty!

LightenedDark 26. juni 2024 kl. 10:51

Aw. I do love me some "XCOM goodies"...

xf100t 23. juni 2024 kl. 23:26

Is it normal to have three shield bursters come in one pod? Because dear god, I pulled three with the shield sitrep, and that was an instant retreat/wipe.

Mungojerrie 25. maj 2024 kl. 14:12

I see, thanks! And good job on the mod BTW, really cool enemies.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 22. maj 2024 kl. 10:33

Yes, that is normal. The Bio Bursters special bash is armour shredding upto 99 - as in all of it, followed by an acid DoT. The Acid DoT is only suppose to do 2 damage max though, so that does seem off.
You can adjust the shredding numbers in the config if you wish.

Mungojerrie 22. maj 2024 kl. 6:45

So an Advanced Paladin Bio Burster just shredded *** 8 *** armor from a SPARK Guardian with a shield bash. This caused Acid Burn for 5 points right after. Is this supposed to happen? Shredding 8 armor in a single attack seems a tiny bit too much.

i luv this mod but i think the range for the poion fire etc is way too much. Shielder isnt even on my screen, he's in another room and i got lit on fire. Especially the poison one, its hardcore.

@RustyDios
'Yeah.. it's technically a bug.. but I'm not going to fix it, because I think the idea of them stealing loot is amazing'

That's a good idea actually, it adds to their uniqueness and adds more urgency to take them down as quick as possible :)

RedX 3. aug. 2023 kl. 22:47

So... can we say that "its not a bug, its a feature" made Kleptomaniac Paladin Shield Bursters (KPSBs) somewhat cannon?
XCOM finally has its own Scavenger class of enemy.

PlasmaFan265 3. aug. 2023 kl. 22:33

Fair enough, I guess. If they're going hell with them, might as well take something to hell with them, lol.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 3. aug. 2023 kl. 22:31

Yeah.. it's technically a bug.. but I'm not going to fix it, because I think the idea of them stealing loot is amazing

PlasmaFan265 3. aug. 2023 kl. 22:29

I had this happen a little while ago as well. A shield burster picked up loot from a dead enemy.

Rtma Eros Paragon 30. juli 2023 kl. 5:54

Not literally walked up and gave it, said it was picked up like when you take loot, crouch down, pick up and accept it.

Mac Dog64 29. juli 2023 kl. 9:10

I've never heard of enemies taking loot and giving it to XCOM, that's quite funny if true haha:)

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 29. juli 2023 kl. 6:46

Are you sure he gave it to you? or just that the pop-up for what was there was shown?
These guys are known to be kleptomaniacs ... ....

Rtma Eros Paragon 29. juli 2023 kl. 6:08

Just had something odd happen, a shield burster picked up dropped loot from a killed purifier right beside him and gave it to me, bug report.

Mac Dog64 28. juli 2023 kl. 2:15

This looks so cool, It was a cool design choice to use the Muton skins and i think it compliments them more in terms of uniqeness. Are you planning to do similar use of skins for enemies? That has so much untapped potential:)

jat11241976 6. maj 2023 kl. 16:50

Another excellent mod, and thank you for cooki\ng it! Your amazing Rusty!

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 8. apr. 2023 kl. 11:58

Works fine alongside ABA (and most other enemy mods)

zin 8. apr. 2023 kl. 11:48

Sweet enemy!

Just wondering, is it compatible with A Better ADVENT: WotC? I’m assuming so, but I’m not sure whether or not that mod has similar enemies to these.

Moisesjns 28. nov. 2022 kl. 19:50

really good looking enemy. Thank you for making them.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 2. nov. 2022 kl. 8:38

AdvShieldBearer_xMz

where x is one of the colours, and z is the tier

If you find you still can't get their ids correct, they are all in the \Localisation\xcomgame.int
the y part of these lines;
[yyyyyyy X2CharacterTemplate]

Fargus404 2. nov. 2022 kl. 6:57

I would be very grateful if you would write the id of these beautiful soldiers

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 1. nov. 2022 kl. 16:21

You can find that in the mods localisation (\Localisation\xcomgame.int) file easily enough.
[xxxxxxx X2CharacterTemplate]

You can find the MOD ID in the 'share' button/address bar.. its the ID at the end
(or right click the mod in AML and choose "open in explorer") .. to get to the mod files.

Fargus404 1. nov. 2022 kl. 5:26

please tell me the id I want them to sleep

Kei 18. okt. 2022 kl. 2:34

Very cool mod! Thank you for your hard work, it is greatly appreciated!

Nuka Quantum 17. sep. 2022 kl. 11:09

ah thanks i didn't see it like that!

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 17. sep. 2022 kl. 9:04

Technically they are Bureau Mutons, but the armour design still looks 'plated bulky Advent' to me
They still drop AdventShieldBearer corpses, and the design was still for them being 'beefier' Shieldbearers ... so ...

They can be both right?

Both :)

Nuka Quantum 17. sep. 2022 kl. 8:41

quick question are these new models mutons or advent i can't tell

dmc32 15. sep. 2022 kl. 18:26

Very cool

Povuh 15. sep. 2022 kl. 12:27

Awesome update, still really like these guys.

RedX 15. sep. 2022 kl. 8:15

Hell yeah!
The moment i saw those models i wanted to fight against them.
They fit perfectly now, awesome update.

Zoviscyne 14. feb. 2022 kl. 1:28

For a first "true" enemy mod, this is very good! Fun Diablo-style "elite mobs." No, I didn't see your 8 pages of prior xcom mods, I promise.

Povuh 28. jan. 2022 kl. 10:23

I just ran into one of the blue bois for the first time, they're cool!

Dark 24. jan. 2022 kl. 6:38

@RustyDios Yep, but i don't know how to do it... I never seen code for inventory slots in X2Characters class. Well, i will have to think about it over the weekend.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 23. jan. 2022 kl. 15:17

Well, that's not technically an issue with this mod, that's on your change. You'd also need to update ALL enemies using ammo to have an AmmoPocket, and then move their inventory loadouts so their ammo is in their pocket.

Dark 23. jan. 2022 kl. 10:43

Heh, found problem. I just changed inventory slot for ammo items from _Utility to _AmmoPocket and now all enemy with ammo in loadout don't receive bonuses from it.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 23. jan. 2022 kl. 8:12

Hover your mouse over the weapon and the details will appear to the left of the main screen ...

Dark 23. jan. 2022 kl. 6:54

Hmm, ammo which added in paladins loadout not show in YetAnotherF1...

LooseNooseZeusMooseGooseJuice 15. jan. 2022 kl. 6:12

Rusty, you're incredible. Remember that man.

silverleaf1 26. nov. 2021 kl. 14:28

@RustyDios I think there was more than one so I really could not determine how long the shields last; I just noticed that every unit I saw had a shield. Thanks for getting back to me. These guys provide a lot of shield making them a high priority target.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 26. nov. 2021 kl. 13:51

Pretty sure they expire after 5 turns, unless you are using a mod to change that.
Although these guys are not in the CI Phalanx sitrep (the one that gives you shieldbearers, is just normal shieldbearers I think)

silverleaf1 26. nov. 2021 kl. 7:36

@RustyDios Do the shields provided to friendly units ever expire without destruction of the providing unit? The Strategy Overhaul includes a sitrep that places a shield bearer in every pod. Shield bearers appear early enough that the extra shields may be difficult to deal with with just magnetic weapons, especially on timed missions.

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 11. okt. 2021 kl. 22:46

Maybe in another mod I'll adjust a base game enemy in that way, but not in this one :)

Red110 11. okt. 2021 kl. 20:53

What about ballistic shield like Assault Trooper from Bio Division?

RustyDios [ophavsmand] 11. okt. 2021 kl. 14:28

Whilst a good suggestion, I won't be adjusting the base Shieldbearer at all in this mod. He hasn't "earned" his Paladin Shield ... .. lol ... think of the base one as the 'rookie' ShieldBearer... lol

Red110 11. okt. 2021 kl. 10:58

Maybe add shield for basic shieldbearer?
