In the long run, the 100% increase in damage on proc significantly increases the potential damage output of the Grenadier, making the unit less reliant on grenades.ĭescription: Launching or throwing grenades, or using heavy weapons with your first action, will not end your turn.Įxplanation: The best use of Salvo is placing the Grenadier in an offensive position, and then pulling him or her out after an attack. You'll want to weigh the risk/reward in each circumstance that you think about utilizing the skill. The problem lies in the fact that situations where the skill is used, missing can be potentially devastating to your squad. While you take a significant risk, the reward is a potential one-hit kill. If you hit the target, you take another shot on the target automatically.Įxplanation: This skill is highly RNG oriented. The increase in effective damage for the grenades is vital for keeping offensive grenades relevant toward the latter half of the game when enemies have larger health pools.ĭescription: Take a shot with an aim penalty of -15. Therefore, this is best used in Grenadier openers who have the Shredder skill equipped.ĭescription: Your grenades have an increased radius of 1 tile, and deal +2 damage.Įxplanation: The AoE component of grenades is important in being able to set up strong entries, and this skill will allow you to affect more enemies or teammates with each grenade launch. The only problem is that typically these enemies have armor that should be shredded with grenades. This skill becomes increasingly effective over the course of the game when AoE becomes more of a necessity and new grenade types are unlocked that can be placed in the grenade-only slot, such as the Incendiary Grenade.ĭescription: Any directed cannon shot, hit or miss, will mark the target, increasing your squad's aim by +15 against this target.Įxplanation: This is great for improving your squad's effectiveness against the more dangerous enemy types.

The two ammo requirement is also a shortcoming.ĭescription: The grenade in your grenade-only slot gains a bonus use.Įxplanation: This is a must-have for most Grenadier units. The only shortcoming is that the Cannon is short-ranged in nature, and thus this ability is only at its best effectiveness in short-ranged scenarios. If they leave the cover, they will be fired upon. If they choose to fire from said cover, they will have an imposed aim reduction.

Uses 2 ammo.Įxplanation: This is very good for locking down dangerous opponents who are in high cover. That said, in most situations it's better to use a grenade to not only break cover but deal AoE damage at the same time.ĭescription: Fire a barrage that pins down a target, granting reaction fire against it if it moves, and imposing a -50 penalty to the target's aim. Although the Grenadier will use a turn to break the cover and reveal the opponent, it can be a good investment if followed up with a clean kill by teammates. Deals no damage to your target.Įxplanation: While situational, high cover is a common issue that gives the enemy team an advantage in firefights. However, Shredder pairs well with several other skills in the Grenadier tree, increasing its effectiveness as the Grenadier increases in rank.ĭescription: Unleash a volley of bullets at your target's cover, significantly damaging or destroying it. Secondly, grenades shred armor and are more reliable. The problem with Shredder is that, for one, the Cannon's short range and low Aim makes it a poor choice for entry, which is when armor shredding is most important. ​​ Description: Your cannon attacks shred armor.Įxplanation: Shredding armor is a vital strategical component of the game.

It is reliable due to its passive nature and will likely come into use in most missions you take on. This closer positioning makes the Cannon and other close-ranged Grenadier weapons much more effective.
