5. Avoid those no matter what
Basic:What is a 100% stealth infiltrator means?
lt means that your infiltrator will never be revealed on the map and become a target of the ground unit enemy that is using weapons and melee attack,but lt will alert them into your position,once you start firing and keep moving around your infiltrator,Also there are some enemies you still need to be careful of.(list in 4.2)
1.(How to recruit a infiltrator?)
The infiltrator unit is from the synedrion faction,ln order to recruit a lnfiltrator from the synedrion elite training centre,you need to past over 25% in dipomacy by first doing the heaven defense mission and then you must complete the final mission to past 25% percentage in dipomacy,once you reach 25% in dipomacy,it will reveal all the synedrion heaven on the map,some of the synedrion heaven will start building the elite training centre,then wait for the elite training centre,it should take 9 days to be build,then you can recruit a inflitrator from it
Or
If you have a random solider with the thief perk,you can try to convert it into a inflitrator by pasting over 50 relationship in synedrion diplomacy to unlock the styx armor and the inflitrator double class training research project as a gift from synedrion for the new class ability and the armor to have a inflitrator
Of course,there are more ways to obtain the styx armor and the research to build a inflitrator,this is my knowledge for now
2.(how to reach 100% stealth)
l know you must be curious,here is how:
the infiltrator has a base of 25% stealth in the start plus the already equipped styx armor provide 50% stealth,so a normal infiltrator with the armor should have 75% stealth,the remaining 25% is from a rare ability call thief,it give you a extra 25% stealth but since it is a rare ability,so you may have to load a few times of your save file to recruit the exact right one with the thief ability from the synedrion heaven
3.(let me introduce you my perfect infiltrator build)(weapon, ability,perks,multi class,sp points build and some useful combination)
3.1 (Important abilities and perks):
There are three ability that l found is the most important for your infiltrator in 100% stealth:
1.surprise attack
lt deal 3 times the damage if you fire to the enemy from behind,this should be easy to get behind the enemy back,since you are in 100% stealth
2.sneak attack(final ability to unlock)
lt give double damage to your weapon if your infiltrator is in concealment since your infiltrator must be in 100% stealth,this is very useful
- vanish
lt let your infiltrator move 5 tiles and disappear from the view untill next turn,but why do you need this, because this is a insurance plan for some unknown reason the chiron can fire on you and the worms can explode near you even you are in 100% stealth,using vanish can let you get closer or away from them without them spotting you
3.2 (The best weapon for infiltrator)
3.2.1.The best weapon is not the poison crossbow
Don’t use the poison crossbow because it had a limited ammo capacity of three,you will run out of ammo quickly,if you want your infiltrator to lone wolf a mission
3.2.2.(The best weapon is the phoenix point mercy SG3 shotgun)(ignore the not proficient sign)
Because it is a close range combat weapon,since your infiltrator are 100% stealth,lt should be easy to sneak up on them and a put a shotgun on their head,each bullet deal 40 damage and with the surprise attack and the sneak attack perks at the same time,it can one shot most of the enemy,a Chiron should take 2 shots to kill on the battlefield.
Each shotgun magazine have 6 shots
Also remember to equip 5 or 6 shotgun magazine if you want to do lone wolf because there may be a lot of enemy unit on the battlefield
3.3.3 (the Best multi class for infiltrator is the assault class for now)
Because l think the assault class have many useful ability such as
1.Dash
Dash can let you get closer to your enemy
2.Ready for action
let you reload your shotgun for free action
3.rapid clearance
let you recover 2 action point for each enemy killed untill end of the turn
3.3.4 (My best combination is dash+rapid clearance)
When your infiltrator open fire from the shotgun,it will alert all the enemies into your position,when they are close to you,use rapid clearance to recover action point to clear as much enemy as possible then use dash to get closer to the other enemy,this should wipe out any enemy that is close to you in one turn
3.3.5 (solider stats point spending)
Since my infiltrator build is a close range unit,l suggest you to spend more points on willpower to perform more special ability and speed so you can move closer and quicker near the enemy.
4.(inflitrator disadvantage,priority target and dangerous, annoying enemy priority list)
4.1 (inflitrator disadvantage)
After you learn how to build the perfect inflitrator,lt doesn’t mean you can just go rampage to kill everything in your path.
There are some enemies that still post a threat to your inflitrator,even you are in 100% stealth when you alert those priority enemies, they will immediately open fire on you or cause annoyance to your inflitrator
(Take out priority target)
When you enter the map always remember to kill those priority target first and keep a eye out on them,before they are alerted, otherwise they may kill your infiltrator or cause some annoyance.(The priority list is in 4.2)
When there are multiple priority target on the battlefield,you can use vanish ability to disappear from the view for one turn after you kill your first priority targrt,so the other priority enemy won’t get alerted and target you,then you can quickly approach them using dash and eliminate them
4.2(Here is a List of dangerous and annoying enemies priority target list)
(you will need to take out first)
1.siren(psychic scream ability)
If you alert a psychic scream ability siren near your inflitrator position,it will use the psychic scream ability every single round reducing your inflitrator will power to 0 making you lose control to your inflitrator ,it is even worst when there are two of them
2.chiron(Must terminate first)
When you alert a Chiron it will immediately fire upon on you for some unknown reason,the goo Chiron make your inflitrator immoblise for a period of time,but the explosive bomb abdomen chiron can deal actual damage from it’s bombs,if the bombs land accurate enough it can kill the infiltrator immediately,be careful of those worms Chiron,because they can launch worms that are deadly to the inflitrator
3.fire worm and acid worm
lf you alert a fire worm and a acid worm to your position,it will explode itself near your inflitrator dealing fire or acid damage on your inflitrator.
5.(Avoid these no matter what)
1.Going into the mist
Standing in the mist will reveal your position to all the enemies on the battlefield resulting getting shoot down by ground unit immediately
- Going near unhatched eggs in the lair
Going near unhatched eggs will alert all the enemies into your position for some unknown reason,the worst is there must be at least one chiron and a few sirens in the lair
3.shoot the terror sentinel in the lair
lf you shoot the terror sentinel,it will alert the terror sentinel making it prepare the psychic scream ability next round dropping your solider will power to 0 making you lose control to your infiltrator similar to the siren psychic scream ability,plus it have a lot of health making it hard to kill ,just ignore them and move in a different direction to advance
4.rush to the final boss alone
For some reason,the final boss have psychic ability that deal over 100 damage to your inflitrator even in 100% stealth,this is where I am struck in
If they do care about this game by doing the update and fix the unfair game mechanics,it means l don’t need to use and depend on this build anymore in order to make progress and have fun in the game,but if they just ignore the problem,don’t worry lt means they will never remove this and nerf this build,l will continue to use this build and recommend you to use it
So,here is my tips,ideas and build,what do you think about it,you can share your infiltrator build or tips with me if you want
l am wondering why should l have only one 100% stealth inflitrator when l can convert the theft ability solider into inflitrator and recruit more inflitrator to make a army of 100% stealth inflitrator
