my favorite execution kill was against the berserker queen. first time she showed up (in that playthrough) and everyone was missing. thought my squaddie ranger was about to die, already missed twice. put her into overwatch so she could at least get a shot off before dying. queen charged, game froze for a second, and then the next thing i hear is Bradford saying we killed her. she had maybe one square missing and full armor when she got to the ranger. i didnt even remember giving her the shotgun with execution on it, and i almost jumped out of my chair with how happy i was.

On the last mission, one of my specialists was just having a terrible time. Constantly triggering waves early, missed like 80% of her Overwatch shots even after holo-targetting was applied, and missed like half of her normal shots. Once the Avatars started popping up, we were about to be flanked next turn. She got the first Overwatch shot and...executed a full HP Avatar. It caused that side's pod to hold back for a turn.

Their main draw is anti-mech, forced damage, or team wide protection. If you get lucky they can take clip size overwatch shots. The issue is... compared to everything else this isn't as good. Grenadiers and Psi do forced damage, Sharpshooter are anti-mech naturally, and team wide protection is done by killing everything. Specialists are best for overwatch or Sectopods on the fragile objective. With Factions this also means you're replacing one of your base squad... Specialist is the best to replace. Ranger - Rapid Fire and scouting. Grenadier - Deny cover + damage. Sharpshooter - Anti-mech, weak enemies, and priority targets. Psi - AoE initiation, certain kills, no loot destruction. Spark - 3 actions in 1 turn incase of emergencies. Faction character

Repeaters ought to be stuck on weapons that are going to be shot a lot. Reaper with expanded mag + banish, ranger with double tap and maybe also a hair trigger mod; death from above on anything BUT a sharpshooter, serial with, again, expanded mag or (I think) advanced autoloader, and probably skirmishers, if you are running those. Think about ways to maximize RNG dice-teamwork, any kind of bonus action that isn't parry or free movement, etc. Repeater is a very meta-game type weapon mod. It's not about maximizing damage on a specific shot; it's about maximizing damage long-term due to making informed decisions about how to stack the odds in your favor. But yes. 5% repeater is generally quite bad. 10% is a massive improvement, from 1/20 to 1/10.

On the last mission, one of my specialists was just having a terrible time. Constantly triggering waves early, missed like 80% of her Overwatch shots even after holo-targetting was applied, and missed like half of her normal shots. Once the Avatars started popping up, we were about to be flanked next turn. She got the first Overwatch shot and...executed a full HP Avatar. It caused that side's pod to hold back for a turn.
I had a repeater kill all three alien rulers, take out the chosen at like 3 encounters and 2 sectopods in my entire first run. It was ludicrous

Prodigious size does not dissuade the sharpened blade.
I love how it seems to take a moment to realize that it's dead.
The Lord of RNG occasionally giveth.
I love how it just bugged for a second thinking "Am I supposed to die here? Yes? Aw alright then."
I’ve gotten executions on the Chosen Warlock in his stronghold as he was on his final phase
sectopod: ok time to kill 3 or heavy damage 6....why do I hear boss music?
Sharpshooter with bluescreen +/- darkclaw absolutely murders sectopods (and everything else for that matter)
That 5% instant kill chance... and you get it... damn... RNG loves you and hates me... had 99% chance to hit, had to hit the shot or the mission failed... my soldier missed...
My favorite thing I've learned about sectopods is that: 1: they can be executed. 2: you can hack them and control them
Never works for me when I want it even with Banish, extended mag and "20% instant kill chance". I never get it against a tough enemy.
Always nice to see some console love.
Reaper + Banish + repeater = what chosen
"Hmmm... maybe we should write that spot down?"
"Just click heads, bra."
"Oh yeah, definitely got the lucky execution, definitely"
The 5-15% although small but it's always there. Sometime it could save you in a least expecting way.
he was very vigilant
Ah, the repeater... A small but significant chance to get some payback at the game for it's bullshit.
had this happened with the archon king lol hit him once to take his armour down and the second hit killed him even though I only took 2 health out and his armour
i was in a ovni mission in vanilli and i got a execution and 2 hair triggers from both of my rangers with normal equipment, not even advanced
"call the ambulance!! but not for me!"
I love how you had to stop and probably pray to that guy for the rest of it XD
This guy kills a sector pod with 1 shot cause have a 5% repeated chance and my guys seems to not even hit a target when there's 95% chance to hit

I created my own long war on Enemy Within. I just never researched the gate to assault the enemy ship.
in my playthrough i must have had less than 5 execution kills, but the very first one was against my first sectopod, big ass scary robot, only to be inmediately destroyed by a lone dude
That callsign is oddly appropriate.
The aliens would have lost in XCOM 1 if repeaters existed back then
Its like the shot snapped it "neck"
Wasn't as anticlimactic as Chosen Hunter getting executed during Stronghold mission in my last run
you know why i love this game sniper are OP especially in the first game if well place in high ground with shared vision they can be very deadly
u won the lottery duuude
I had a panicked Ranger 2 shot kill the Assassin boss. Shes like AHHHH bang bang *dead*
I can't understand it when people call specialists "a worthless class."

Their main draw is anti-mech, forced damage, or team wide protection. If you get lucky they can take clip size overwatch shots. The issue is... compared to everything else this isn't as good. Grenadiers and Psi do forced damage, Sharpshooter are anti-mech naturally, and team wide protection is done by killing everything. Specialists are best for overwatch or Sectopods on the fragile objective. With Factions this also means you're replacing one of your base squad... Specialist is the best to replace. Ranger - Rapid Fire and scouting. Grenadier - Deny cover + damage. Sharpshooter - Anti-mech, weak enemies, and priority targets. Psi - AoE initiation, certain kills, no loot destruction. Spark - 3 actions in 1 turn incase of emergencies. Faction character

@@Buglin_Burger7878 I seriously disagree, especially early game. Having a field medic is an absolute *requirement* for every mission unless you want to lose half your soldiers by the midgame.

You have a lot more ways to take them out quickly.
Nobody made fun of the support classes after that battle
Memes aside was that am execution kill
Somebody just got a promotion!
And that is why you take repeaters
Ah yes, does a one shot on a spectre by by a weapon gear with the second reflex shot, game never let the turn end, really funny.
well, idk why this video has more than 10 views honestly
On overwatch covering fire no less!
Just the other day one of my snipers one shot the Archon King, and carried the rest of the mission
Sniper rifle with the right perks can do the trick.
That's XC... Hey! That's not the way it's suppose to work! You wound me. 😢
I love this game.
Let's be honest, EVERYONE here has put execution on someone and completely forgot about it only to be reminded by a mid-combat clutch execution out of nowhere. xD
When you execute a big thing.
"and stay down"
Me who’s played 2 playthroughs and never seen a repeater
Yeah those weapon mods are a little OP lol.
Прикольно!

my last campaign i did this to the archon king
0.30 how much damage did it give ?
I'm starting to regret using repeaters having a benefit proc once every 40 missions usually on someone that doesn't matter over something that helps on every mission seems The same as playing the lottery yeah you have a chance to win millions but you also have a chance of just save your money

Repeaters ought to be stuck on weapons that are going to be shot a lot. Reaper with expanded mag + banish, ranger with double tap and maybe also a hair trigger mod; death from above on anything BUT a sharpshooter, serial with, again, expanded mag or (I think) advanced autoloader, and probably skirmishers, if you are running those. Think about ways to maximize RNG dice-teamwork, any kind of bonus action that isn't parry or free movement, etc. Repeater is a very meta-game type weapon mod. It's not about maximizing damage on a specific shot; it's about maximizing damage long-term due to making informed decisions about how to stack the odds in your favor. But yes. 5% repeater is generally quite bad. 10% is a massive improvement, from 1/20 to 1/10.

@@bornforburning777 The issue is if you play maximizing hit chance this often means destroying cover and not getting benefit from repeaters or they are better replaced with hair trigger.
