XCOM 2 psi op solo legend test

A "just for fun" challenge on XCOM 2's legend difficulty to see how far a psi op trooper can get solo against end game enemies when not constrained by a mission timer!

You let the dominated gatekeeper live, it is going to very awkward when he has to explain what happened to the elders.

The game changes them in that way once they become psionic. As to the lore of that happening, I'm not sure. In Enemy Within they got the purple eyes only, the white hair might be caused because of the forced or rushed style of the psi training in Xcom 2...

Ranger is pretty good with melee, especially with the Chosen melee weapon, but there are other ways to recreate the same effect with other classes, such as a sharpshooter taking down basically everything with a combo of the sniping trees abilites and one ability from the slinger tree for hunkering down so you can't miss and usually crit Though as for the statement itself, Mutons and a Chosen with the immunity to melee damage cause issues
