![]() ![]() ![]() This does come with the caveat that in the prior game you could boost Pistol accuracy, crit chance, and damage via Foundry Projects, and there's not an equivalent set of options in XCOM 2, but that's misleading. An argument can be made it's the same +1 damage most of the returning primary weapons experience, but first of all jumping from 1-2 damage to 2-3 damage is proportionately huge, doubling your minimum damage and raising your maximum damage by 50%, and second of all the actual equivalent of just raising base damage by 1 would be for the Conventional Pistol to do 1-3 damage -at which point it would actually be swingier than ever and not particularly reliably stronger. ![]() Outside DLC weapons, secondary weapons are not something you worry about losing.Ĭompared to the Conventional Pistol of the prior game, XCOM 2's Conventional Pistol is fairly dramatically stronger. Note that every single one of the advanced forms is a permanent squad-wide unlock of an unlimited supply, and unlike primary weapons there's no ability to modify secondary weapons into unique copies you care about losing. (Well, technically Pistols have an internal ammo value like a primary weapon, but the value gets interpreted by the game as 'infinite ammo' so whatever) If they have a limitation, it's handled elsewhere, such as how the Grenade Launcher can only be used up to three times in a mission because a Grenadier can only equip two grenades and only add a second charge to one of them. Getting a Conventional-tier Breakthrough will cause the game to display a +1 to the Claymore's damage when looking at it in the Armory, but gameplay will not reflect this claim.Īlso note that I'm not listing an ammo value under secondary weapons, because they don't do that. It's technically listed by the game as a secondary weapon, but it doesn't behave like one in any meaningful sense: you don't have higher-tier versions you can equip, or alternate versions, and indeed the Claymore actually doesn't benefit from Breakthroughs, not even the broad tier ones. Note that I'm not including the Reaper's Claymore under in these secondary weapon posts. ![]()
