The 10 Most Difficult Enemies To Fight In The XCom Games: Difference between revisions

<br>The most important aspect of surviving Ironman is undoubtedly pod management. Ideally, players should aim to pull one pod at a time. One of the best ways to lose a squad is to have the last member advance, reveal a pod, and have the enemies take a full round of actions before players can react. To avoid being at the mercy of enemies in XCOM 2, it is important to use blue movement when advancing, and dash only when it is certain that no pods will be inconveniently revea<br><br> <br>Archons are basically Floaters that have been given upgraded weapons and an appearance that give them the look/style of the Egyptian gods. These flying aliens have a very high defense rating, increased health, and are armed with staffs capable of ranged attacks. Archons are also immune to flanking attacks. They have a special ability called "Blazing Pinions", which are essentially missiles that deal respectable damage and destroy any cover the player’s squad may be hiding behind. When severely injured in battle, an Archon can go into a battle frenzy which gives them extra actions per t<br><br> <br>Sectopods are huge bi-pedal mechs used by ADVENT troops. These tanks on legs can kill an entire squad with its Wrath Cannon if the player is foolish enough to keep them grouped. The Wrath Cannon fires a particle beam, which is three tiles wide, across the battlefield damaging every soldier in its path. The Sectopod can also extend itself upwards; this increases the range of its weapons and allows it better accuracy against elevated soldiers, and soldiers behind cover. The Sectopod also has a very high armor and health ratings- so don’t expect it to fall eas<br><br> <br>The Heavy Floater does not have the toughest armor, or a particularly high damage potential, but its special abilities more than make up for those deficiencies. The most exasperating ability is that Floaters can launch themselves to any location in the battle zone. This is annoying when a Heavy Floater is near death then launches out of range. They can also bombard an area, which usually negates the cover the player’s soldiers are hiding behind. Lastly, when they are airborne, a Heavy Floater can evade incoming fire; which lowers the accuracy of the player’s soldiers by <br><br> <br>If you’re playing XCom 2 , and you encounter a human-looking enemy that has white hair and a purple visor that covers the entire face, have all your soldiers target that enemy. That is probably the only chance of successfully completing that mission. That type of enemy is called an Avatar, and thankfully they are rare. They have extremely high mobility, armor, and damage potential. To make matters worse, Avatars have powerful psionic abilities as well. Many aliens can mind control the player’s soldiers; Avatars can mind control up to three at one time.

They have numerous, and powerful psionic abilities that can cause havoc among the player’s squad and deliver significant damage. Their deadliest abilities are the ability to control the minds of the player’s soldiers, and the ability to drain a soldier’s health and heal itself at the same time with its Psi Drain. To make them even more difficult, Ethereals have the Hardened trait that makes them highly resistant to critical hits. Ethereals also have a devastating one-two punch with their Mindfray, which lowers a soldier’s Will, and their Rift ability which deals extra damage to a soldier with a low Will sc<br><br> <br>However, just like in Enemy Unknown, Sharpshooters in XCOM 2 are built with a singular purpose: kill everything on your screen. Snipers get this done with high-damage sniper rifles that are deadly accurate, and their inherent Squadsight ability means you can often do this without putting them in danger. Not only are they deadly, but you can put them in places where they're almost always unable to be kil<br>
