Hey, everyone. This is just a "quick" little one-off video that I got inspired to make. I really tried to up the quality of the editing for this, so I hope you enjoy. After this, I don't have any plans for new videos for the time being. I'm probably just gonna try out a few SPARK-related mods, and then maybe take a break from XCOM for a bit. I really enjoyed working on this project though, so if inspiration strikes again then who knows? Either way, as always, thanks for watching. 🙇

You did much cleaner than my first early Lost Towers run. Nobody died, but my whole A-team was either wounded or shaken for at least 3 weeks...

Yeah, both my Grenadier and Ranger were Shaken after this mission. It's pretty brutal.

Great coverage. I would never think of doing this run that early in the campaign but good to know there's a guide to do it with relative ease, on Legendary no less. The music in this mission is amazing. The edit's great. Love the "It's X-com baby" remark too!

I always waited till getting magnetic assault rifles before doing this and having at least a captain I also make sure to bring a reaper with remote star just to blow up the final boss area great work on this guide it was very detailed and well explained this is great for doing this mission early to acquire the spark early also the derelic mec casually blowing up if no one is in sight is hilarious thanks once again

I recently tried this mission with WoTC. Waited until I had mag weapons though. Commander difficulty and it didn't go amazingly, but did succeed. RIP my Ranger. Definitely taking a reaper next time, the reduced damage during the bulk of the mission is definitely offset by the wopping 16 extra damage to Julian at the end. Great video
@veegeeplz2 жыл бұрын
The damage isn't really an issue for most of it. Mostly you're prioritizing speed and letting Shen do most of the work. I imagine the Reaper wouldn't be as necessary with Mag Weapons and Bluescreen Rounds, as you'll probably be doing a lot more damage.

It's a shame you don't make videos anymore. It was very interesting and I learned a few things.

Thank you for the kind words. 🙏 I've thought about making more videos in the past, but I'm working on other projects currently and want to focus on those for the time being.

So what I usually do for this mission is wait until I can do it a bit more easily, so I don’t have to worry so much about wound times or my entire top team being shaken for 20 days. In that case, I they would still definitely be tired, but I can still bring them in an emergency if I have to with mindshields. I never thought to bring a reaper on this mission because of the lack of firepower on every floor except the last one, that remote start is broken, if you manage to use it twice, that’s 2/3 of Julian’s health(not including possible armor). Getting the spark later just means they will be farther behind the rest of your barracks in terms of promotions, so you would have to bring them on virtually every mission, which can be hard if they are tanking hits(which will probably happen because they aren’t that hard to hit). Personally, I just think vanilla SPARKs aren’t they good, and having any other soldier would be better. I am currently doing a very modded playthrough (240 mods) and I am using a total SPARK overhaul mod, which I highly recommend over vanilla SPARKs. Includes: “Mechatronic Warfare: Total SPARK Overhaul” by NotSoLoneWolf and “Iridar’s SPARK Arsenal” by Iridar.

I think by the time you'd get to use Remote Start a second time, Julian would already be dead from standard fire. Maybe if you could bait him to one side of the arena? Would have to test. Those are the two mods I'm going to try out. Everyone always recommends Mechatronic Warfare, and I _love_ what Iridar did with some of the new items. I just have to get a Legend campaign far enough to actually build one. :")
