  • Malek_Deneith, LordAbizi, Iridar, and Xymanek - Provided the equivalent of tech support, and is the reason I was able to get this class working.

  • Everyone's mods that mine requires - Literally couldn't exist without them, they are talented modders.

a cool proficiency class idea is something akin to XCOM1's assault class a frontline soldier specializing in pistols and shotguns

Ah ok, did not know that. Thanks!

@Drakten This is normal behavior for Run and Gun as it is the one from Proficiency Pack. I do not know exactly where, but I know shiremct stated it IS intentional for his Run and Gun to break concealment.
Drakten Apr 29, 2024 @ 8:31pm 
Hey Knoxx. Just had a shock trooper activate run and gun and it broke concealment. Is that normal behavior?

Does this actually require proficiency pack?...PSYCH!...you know, since I was annoying you most of today checking that on other classes :p

Your proficiency classes come highly recommended, and I'm looking forward to giving them a try. I appreciate that you attempted to adapt them to this new standard of classes design, but didn't necessarily stay in the same lines of balance (I feel the Proficiency Classes are a little too tame). Everything I have read about your classes looks good and excited to try them out. Cheers!

At the current moment, I'm in a planning phase making ideas so once I'm done with the finishing polish on some of my classes. I plan on atleast releasing 1 unique (non-hero type) class at some time this or next month if everything goes as planned.

Did you updated this class pack Knoxxx? Nooo I had edits to this class. Oh well the changes are interesting to give it ago.

Also are you planning making more Plugins? I understand if you don't since Modding I know takes alot of time. But you classes plugins are great, I love what did with Alpha Rocketeer class.

I don't use LWOTC personally so I don't know. You can try it out if you want but I'm not sure if it'll work. For base game "eInvSlot_Pistol" doesn't work, but if it works for LWOTC, go ahead.

Hey man i have a question, this is definitely my favorite class to use and now that i recently downloaded lwotc, i've been trying to add the pistol skill tree that a lot of those classes have to the shocktrooper class. I went on the class data and tried copy pasting the pistol skills from lwotc onto the shocktrooper class for each rank minus 1 since lwotc have an extra rank but i don't think that matters a lot. So my question is, am i missing something else to do apart from just adding:
"(AbilityType=(AbilityName="Quickdraw", ApplyToWeaponSlot=eInvSlot_Pistol)) \\"
to the next line under the last ability for each rank from corporal-colonel?
