@Alpha115 will the FireStarter work with gauntlet perks?

Just finished a campaign with about 685 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.

Yeah i found that the templar dragon made it so that the shocjtrooper also use lw2 gauntlets

@TrooperCoon yeah no that should not be possible but another mod might be causing this to occur.

i was asking because i somehow has both lw2 gauntlets and rocket launchers as an equippable secondaries even though it didnt say those in the classdata config

hey i know that this is an old and abandoned mod but, does this shocktrooper class work with lw2 gauntlet provided by lw2 secondaries?

Just finished a run with this mod and 460+ others, with no real issues. Thanks for making this, had a lot of fun combining this with Iridar's Jetpacks. Flying right into the fray and purging everything with glorious fire? Yes, please.

will there be a new version for this mod or is it fully dead?

add it in classdata.ini

any idea how to give this guy the purifier flamethrower?

Needs a Brigadier tier and an RPGO plug-in, looks interesting though!

@Parameter you can add the weapon via Open Class Weapon Restrictions. You will have to set up its config file, which is listed as a second mod.

I found a bug with the wotc version. After damaging an opponent more than once, you get multiple instances of the relocation ability which is only supposed to trigger once. Also, its animation is very long, breaking from the action for a few seconds, which feels a bit arbitrary.

As further input, I would have loved to see both Room Clearer and World on Fire upgrading the Firestarter ability instead of being new abilities.

Still, great class. Have had it for multiple playthroughs. Love me some pyros.

Hi, Alpha.

Would it be possible for your shocktrooper to wear the Advent flamethrower?

@Alpha115 Just wanted to say I appreciate you porting over the Shocktrooper, it filled the LW2 void a bit, but this mod has ran it's course and it's sad to say goodbye. But thanks man, this class was a blast, I now move on to the LW2 Classes Mod.

Peace!

and ofc i resubbed lol. (forgot to state the obvious earlier)

I recently unsubbed from this without realizing the Templar Dragon mod requires it but ever since this mod WILL NOT show up in the Alternative Mod Launcher for whatever reason...any ideas?

Good class, I really like it. The only thing that I fould overly useful early and midgame is the Penetrating Burst as its long range allows you to strike at multiple foes more often than the actual flamethrower ability, I used it a lot more even though it has an ammo cost of 2 and a 3turn cd. When you get the actual perks and boosts to your flamethrower this gets mitigated a bit, but it's still a very powerful perk this early in the game.

if you dont download them he uses ARs and Bullpups.

nope, he can just use them if you do download it.

Smgs? So he comes with his own set of weapons without requring the unofficial LW Port?

It is not compatible with RP overhaul its a normal class.

I wonder if this is compatible with RP Overhaul by Musashi? If can be if this mod built the class as a hero class, but not when this is a soldier class.

no problem, the perk pack's other perks wont apply to the game without a class directly refencing them. so all the perks from the pack wont be activate in a game. Since this mod only uses one perk the others are not active in the game.

Ok I'll take a look at the extended perk pack, I didn't know this was added back in like November but it's been a while since I got a high rank shock trooper. Thanks a lot though!

As long as you replace the recharge perk with a new one via the class config data.

So what you're saying is that I can peacefully play this mod without my game exploding, because I don't have that mod and I personally don't want to sub to it.

I gave the class a single perk from the extended perk pack. I recommend it for functionallity reasons. but you can remove/replace the recharge perk with a different perk to not use the extended perk pack.

@Alpha115 I was using the shocktrooper class for the longest and I noticed that it needed this Extended Perk Pack, what is taken from there? Because currently the mod works fine... kind of worried.

Sort answer no.

I think these classes should only become available after heavy weapon research when rockets and flamethrowers become available in game in Vanilla.

Is it possible to configure your 2 classes to depend on that tech tree?

@rookie slime sure.

I just realized that there is a straight up conversation between Alpha and Omega on this page. Biblical.

On another note, would you or sunfish have an issue with me modifying the name of this class and its ability descriptions to fit a certain theme (warhammer 40k in this case)? The only file my mod would contain is the loc ini, meaning it would still require dependancy on this mod.

@Lehemoth: he'd need to get permisison from Isms. I've talked to Isms and he currently just doesn't have the time (or WoTC) yet. he has been checking with some of the other guys for a possible port though. be patient.

Aha yes, I just double checked and you are 100% correct. Excellent.

@omega it still applies to the trooper in a mission, but not on the armory screen.

I just learned Preparedness on my shiny new shocktrooper but his health and armor did not seem to increase on the armory screen.

Could you port the rogue class too? such a good class

Just the thing for the TF2 Pyro Voice Pack.

honestly, sadly, one of the perks i loved the most for this class was one that had to be kaiboshed. the one that was essentially "SMG Faceoff." had some good times with that and a repeater-equipped SMG.

I use the smgs and I found no problem, I have like 80+ mods not sure how my Xcom didnt explode.

@whiteshirt sorry no clue how to fix it. I personally don't use the LW SMG pack because it could have issues like this. I made it so the shock trooper could use Assualt rifles and bullpups to make it so it could use the huge weapon packs SMGs.

Using the LW SMG pack for WOTC makes the Bullpup option disappear fromt he inventory and if you equip an SMG you can't switch back. Is there any fix for this?

Extremely well done mod, not sure why this isn't popular. You get your wrist flamethrower back!

How can i make this work with shotguns?

Very good class, penetrating burst is excellent, thanks.

@skygga: rather than wait for the mod to be made compatible with the smg mod, I made the change myself.

Just go to \SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1145764894\Config\XcomClassData.ini and add this line: +AllowedWeapons=(SlotType=eInvSlot_PrimaryWeapon, WeaponType="rifle")

Voila! SMG compatability.

thank you. Templar`s ability it work!

Thanks! I've been missing flame throwers.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." Ralph Waldo Emerson.

So I changed the ability name. hopefully it will work now. If not I will have to probably change some more lines of code, or it may require a campaign restart for the change to take effect.
