Rangers would usually rather have a Shotgun -they can easily get crits without a mandatory crit effect- and Psi Operatives aren't exactly a stellar user of the Disruptor Rifle. It's also subtly convenient how proper robots don't overlap with psionic units at all, providing clarity on what merits shooting vs what merits eg Combat Protocol or Haywire Protocol. Expanded ammo to maximize Guardian trigger potential, auto-crits on key targets gets to go through even on Overwatch thanks to Cool Under Pressure, Superior Scope maximizes odds of hitting, and Superior Stock means that when your Overwatch shots miss thanks to the accuracy penalty they still get to do damage. They'd arguably rather have a Repeater over a Hair Trigger for maximum Overwatch boosting, but otherwise this is pretty much perfect. This is a genuinely relevant concern, since Codices and Avatar both have innate Dodge stats! (Interestingly, it does not auto-crit against Spectres, even though they have a Psi Attack stat)

By a similar token, though it's normally impossible to come up in actual play, it won't autocrit against the Warlock if you eg use mods to get a hold of it while the Warlock is still alive, never mind his whole thing is being psionic.Īlso note that the auto-crit on the Disruptor Rifle is not like the auto-crit on Rupture, and will be completely canceled out by a Graze triggering. You might expect the Disruptor Rifle to autocrit on your Psi Operatives and/or Templar, in the admittedly unlikely event of Mind Control leading to such a possibility, but nope, it's just that specific list of enemies. (Normally Overwatch fire will still not crit) Special: Always crits on a successful hit against Sectoids, ADVENT Priests, Codices, Gatekeepers, and Avatars. Used by: Rangers, Specialists, Psi Operatives, Rookies

It still matters that they're Weapon Attachments rather than innate qualities, though, due to Inside Knowledge existing) This plus higher base qualities is often already plenty to push aside regular equivalents, even in cases where the set of Weapon Attachments is less than optimal.Īlso note that all of these are internally classed as beam-tier weapons for Breakthrough purposes, and thus Breakthroughs can't cause them to fall behind their peers, which is particularly important to the primary weapons.Īttachments: Superior Scope, Superior Expanded Magazine, Superior Hair Trigger, Superior Stock (Note that you can't replace these Weapon Attachments like Tactical Legacy weapons, they're fixed. Like the DLC unique gear, these are irretrievably lost if you abandon the body of someone who was carrying them, so try to not leave them behind.Īll of these are tuned as slightly better than beam-tier equivalents, as far as raw stats goes, but then they also all tack on at least one more unusual quality, and the primary weapons all have four Superior-tier Weapon Attachments pre-slotted, which is more than you can ever manually apply to a weapon. These are all acquired by successfully assaulting a Chosen Stronghold, which will then unlock a Research project that, once performed, adds one copy of each weapon from that Chosen to your inventory.
