XCOM 2: The 10 Best Skills Ranked

However, there's still quite some time before Project Triangle Strategy releases. The fact that it doesn't even have a final name as of yet should make it clear that the waiting period is going to go on for quite some time. So, for fans who might find this wait to be somewhat unbearable, here are ten games on the Nintendo Switch that players can try out before Project Triangle Strategy relea


Fans have been clamoring for Persona 5 to come on the Switch for the longest time. While Persona 5 Strikers might not be the exact game they were hoping for, it's still a brilliant title that combines the mechanics of Dynasty Warriors with Persona 5 's combat for some truly brilliant


The coolest non-hero class, the Ranger wields both a shotgun and a sword and can make great use of both. The Ranger has two ability trees that give it either great damage or great utility, and a mix of both is also a real possibil


A questionable approach by the XCOM Project to creating great soldiers, the MEC Trooper required a procedure that involved removing the limbs of those who were in the program. However, the results were posit


Some gamers are never content to rest on their laurels. User DerBK loves XCOM 2 — one of the best western RPGs of all time — so much that he expanded his popular A Better Everything suite over to War of the Chosen. His various A Better Everything mods can change ADVENT behavior, the barracks XCOM uses to upgrade its soldiers, the missions players navigate, and the powerful Chosen bosses themsel


Of course, it would be impossible to talk about Nintendo Switch games in the same vein as Project Triangle SLG Strategy guide without mentioning the masterpiece that is Octopath Traveler . The 2.5D art style is one of the major draws of the game, making for a unique experience that is bound to satiate any fan of old-school JR


All the classes are mostly balanced, and they all have a spot in the squad. There's never a time when a player would want to take just one class since they wouldn't be able to cover the jobs the other classes fill. Still, some classes are stronger than others and cover a wider net of utility than others. Since they are not a separate class, Psi Operatives from Enemy Unknown will not be inclu


While that penalty sounds extreme, it can be countered in a variety of ways. The best way is to flank the target, which will allow you to ignore their cover bonus and gain additional critical hit chance. Since Rangers have some of the strongest guns in the game, critically hitting with a high-powered shotgun not once but twice will kill almost any foe in the g


Thankfully, Musashi fixed this for replayers with the Still Stop Wasting My Time Mod — updated for the War of the Chosen mod, hence the "Still" — which speeds up all the various animations that slow down the flow of gameplay. Never again will players suffer through the tedious 80-minute holo targeting animation. A nice bonus is that this mod seems to be almost universal, with no major confli


This class is overshadowed by its successor because the Ranger gets more utility-based abilities. The Assault class only gets abilities centered around fighting. While this is great for Enemy Unknown, it wouldn't work well for a game like XCO


Who doesn't like clicking twice, six to eight times to finish an already long, grueling mission? Most people! In particular, modder tracktwo must have really hated all that extra clicking at the end of missions, because they are the author of the Evac All m


Domination will permanently mind control one enemy for the rest of the mission, which is a stronger skill than the mind control aliens get. As long as your will is high enough, you can mind control any organic being from Sectoids to the terrifying Andromedons . No other skill in XCOM 2 can change a fight in your favor so quickly and grant a plethora of new skills at the same time. The alien you control can use all of their abilities that infamously give you trou

According to Eurogamer , the game's prototype was a complete failure. This version of the game lacked cover, used a movement and action point system similar to the original UFO Defense , and also had Enemy Unknown's host of class and weapon systems that cluttered the game more than helped. Even though it took a year to develop, Firaxis deemed the prototype to be below standard and started from scra

Critical hits are easy to achieve on snipers late-game, meaning this skill reduces your killing power the longer it's active. With that said, few skills can match the sheer damage this can dish out. With a good sniper rifle and a good vantage point, it is possible to kill upwards of a dozen enemies in a single action, provided you have free reloads on your weapon to keep the chain go


The Heavy Class can dish out a ton of damage to several enemies in a cluster because of the number of explosives the Heavy class can take. When they hit colonel, they could have access to five explosives in one mission, which is two more than the Grenad
