How to get Intel + What to sell

[MrFrengLitch]

Hey!

So I'm playing on Legend. And I'm to the point where I have no intel and I need some to unlock new regions in order to complete Avatar missions. Is there something I can do to get more intel that hoping to find some?

AND

I also have low supplies (I'm at the 3rd month). So I need moneyz. BUT, I'm scared to sell anything since I'm not sur how much I should keep. Anyone has any idea how much corpses/resources/upgrades I should keep?

Thanks!

Intel can be gotten sometimes in caches of 20 or 40 from hacking objects or skullmining ADVENT units, as a reward from guerrilla or council missions, and (slowly) from scanning at HQ if that's your selected bonus (which it is by default).

I may have missed something..

Sometimes there spawns scanning points for intel too. For selling stuff, you should sell some of your corpses you don't need for your next projects. I also sell weapon upgrades I don't plan to use that much, if I really need some more money

Check the Proving Ground items you can make after you have researched the corpses and you should have an idea of what to sell.

Also,

Specailists are actually a thing in this game that you cant afford to treat like a red headed step child that nobody wants.

Those guys are wat you need to Mine Intel out of the minds of the Goons ppl call Advent.
I know your Damage Dealers want to have more target practice but you have to figure your first thing to do is while concealed find Advent soldiers and then pull their brains out through the nose and see if you find anything.

Cool thanks, proving ground it is!

EDIT: Wait what? I can I do that with my specialist? Is this some sort of ability?

The Skulljack from the Proving Grounds (Preferably with the Skullmining upgrade to boost your soldiers' hacking skill) will let you charge an ADVENT unit and one-hit kill them in melee. Even if the attack 'misses' they die, but if it hits you also open up a hacking screen. Failure means the soldier takes damage, success can unlock a number of benefits from intel to alien facility leads.
