Absolutely Brilliant

I played the game on extreme full tactical, and after 89hrs i finally finished it today and was disappointed to find no New Game Plus. it has a few ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in the game like not enough plastic in the early game, and yes i agree some of the cool downs could be a bit shorter, having played Xcom 2 for about 2000hrs and only played it once on hardest, for the final achievement. i can't see me playing this game on Alpha Editor for ages. So my next play though will probably be on the easiest setting to see if i can get the achievements I missed, up until i am forced to play it on Alpha Editor.
I love the fact you can change out your miasma powers before each mission and even change your upgrade points as well, as you can see what kind of enemy's you will be facing. One of my bigger complaints is when you go up against the 6-8 enemy's with over 400dmg each and 5 enraged saplings 160dmg and it's supposed to be lvl 20 why is this not at least a lvl 25 mission but the reward is worth it with the lvl 3 sniper rifle, shame you cannot buy a silencer for it.

Some achievements are still buggy, so probably will take time for them to fix them all.
I'm playing on extreme+full tactical as well.
I miss only few achievements but I didn't finish my run yet:
- to collect all codes (bugged)
- to find all enemies (some say is bugged)
- Alpha Editor + full tactical
- some other story related ones
- to enter on Club 14 with all party with their new outfits
- to recruit last party member

I'm at 36/51 so far.

another pain i tried to take out a whisperer with a sapling, it would seem this achievement is broken as well as the seedling does no dmg to a whisperer I've tried a few times.

You need to remove his armor and leave him with few hp, I did it first try during the "Ritual of Wood" quest (White Castle).
As soon as he is at few HP throw the sapling bomb precisely on him or one square away, without the armor it should remove about 30 with his attack.

If 1 sapling isn't enough throw 2 of them and see if one of them attack instead of trying to use the ability (from which the whisperer is immune).

ty i'll try that next time i play and silly me never thought of using and i also made a mistake in my first post it'd not the lvl 3 sniper rifle it's the lvl 3 shotgun you get.

I think it could work with every whisperer you find, no need to restart if you have a save file to try.
I didn't notice the error, don't worry. :)

P.s. In Ritual of Wood you can get all achievement that required 4/5 kill in 1 turn or 1 shot. I got all there.
You just need overwatch and some bombs, and reload after you got each trophies, if your weapon aren't tier3 you can use tier2 and weaken the saplings with bombs (for shotgun), for sniper is needed at least a 70 dmg weapon (tier 2 4 ammo with +1 ammo equip for the 5 in 1 shot).

I realize that when facing lots of enemy, you should try to use cyclone or teleport skill to stick eneny in a place, and the shotgun with the crit damage mod will clean up enemy. Or If you dont have a high lv shotgun, you can creat a barrel between them, and a fire by shotgun with some skill (acid, amour eater,...) can blow all. This strategy help me to facing with high lv enemy and reach the end game.

Ouside editor trials location and undertown where can you find shadows?

Undertown is the best place to get achievements like shadow boxing and the other one, there is 1 only shadow (mimic) so save and reload for each one. There are some shadows in other place like Proving Grounds or Ground Zero but there are more enemies.

Probably there are some in the Hospital, but I don't remember well.

Thanks. Will try for factory. I need only Shadow Boxin for the achievement and Im on iron man run.

good luck on your iron-man run i tried and failed at the first ambush where the vortex is

I wrote there Biolaboratory, but I remembered wrong.. sorry. I meant Ground Zero, at the final quest.

Edit:
I noticed now that you had written Iron Man run, oops.. yeah skip it and try later with another run where you can save/load, it's much easier that way.

Is there any quests that I should be very careful for iron men? Outside combat ? Ive heard about some chess problems.
So I cannot get game over because of failing a quest.

1 for sure is Joseph's quest that can be bugged. Probably some miniboss with lot of enemies, like Red Death (Proving Ground) or Patient zero (Hospital), after this at the production floor of the factory there are many robots, tough fight in a narrow space.

The final Boss (it depends on the strategy), best one I think is teleport spam with save PA and some KW battery (Bha Madhi MVP there).

P.s. I didn't start my Iron Man yet becouse that bug with Joseph is so easy to get and get stuck (I hope for a fix soon).
