i lov this mod. one thing: inhuman reflexes seems to be capped at 4x each round. after that its not triggered anymore. is that a mistake or done by will?

The mod needs a well-developed balance, otherwise there is no point in installing it

The funny thing is that stupid phone game made this mod canon, because of first mission you're attacked by berseker queen xd

That's XCOM baby!

That's XCOM baby!

they have over twice the health the real rulers have and spawn in groups of 3 regardless of difficulty, how is this supposed to be balanced?

For some reason, when clone beta runs she gets inhuman reflexes everytime, it just spams the text and she has unlimited actions, fix?

Had a problem with my first clone encounter. It was a pod of 3 Berzerker Queens, on a sewer map with a Raider incursion SitRep. The first sighting was when they each took 3 swings at one of the raiders on the far side of the map (I have a pod-to-pod activation mod so fights can kick off without me needing to trigger them), and then they proceeded to stand there and do nothing for a few turns, even when the raiders started pouring lead down their throats.
Then once they started moving again, one of them triggered an overwatch shot from one of my troopers, then proceeded to dash off the map and run into the murky void forever, effectively softlocking my game (maybe; I gave up and exited after about a minute).
They kept throwing up "Ruler Reaction" notices with every action, and repeatedly while running.
I do have the Ruler Rework and Playable Rulers mods installed, if that has anything to do with this. Also, I have not encountered the true Berzerker Queen yet.

@TGCorp616 You DO have to show me this edit please!

Thank you for this mod, i have edited it to be able to have a cloned Hive Queen with her guard

Does this mod work with other ruler mods? Im running the Star Wars conversion and sith lords mods and would like to run into vader more often, i though this might help.

At default settings this mod is ridiculously OP! Quickly becomes impossible. I defeated an entire pod of six 100 health (plus armor) Viper King rulers. Once. This was pure luck as there were not many other enemies present. All but one of my squad dead. It took about a half hour of game play and I don't know how many turns. On top of these rulers being next to impossible to kill, they all have "inhuman reflexes" so each time you attack, they shoot, crush, pinion, pummel, or otherwise destroy your squad. They just keep slaughtering across the entire map. Two missions later, another pod appears, this time Berserkers. Are you insane? I bailed. The aliens win, ADVENT rules. We were refined into green vials of alien red bull. New game. Disable this mod. If you enjoy an incredibly painful grind and death, by all means play this mod! Rage quit the game.Fun.

got a bug about Cloned ViperBoss : when she use Drag to XCOM , her tongue will become invisible and will hang in there for a long time. but game will back on after 3min.

Is there a way to turn each ruler clone into its own sitrep. I keep encountering pods of multiple which just aren't feasible to take on.

Anyone know if this mod copys the suit or adds custom once? It makes a difference for mods that effect the suits.

Just a little warning. Dont activate this mod with the 'larger enemy pod".. mod or you're gonna be gangbanged by 6-7 of does damn ruler that have "inhuman reflexes" which is the same as ruler reaction xD.

Does this work with Renegade Ruler?

shot one of them with a sniper(poison ammo) from across the map... all 3 of them got poisoned

Just had 1 berserker and 2 archon clones spawn in as a group on a mission... is that normal?... so fare i have only fought the snake king

also any chance you could do a compat patch for the hive mod so that i can dupe the hive queen's armor?

so i changed the spawn weight but they still spawn in groups of 3. do i need to make the spawn weights of each of them different?

It's in the SpawnWeight.

I just want them to be somewhat rare to catch me off guard. Not every run.

Which do I change to reduce spawn rates? MinForce, MaxForce, Spawn weight?

also any chance you could make a compat patch for this? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=786342492

any chance you can make it so killing these guys generates me some AP

bruh.... it spawned SIX alien rulers in an avatar project base. THAT cannot be normal.

Just as planned. *evil laugh*

Anyway, I probably should have made multi ruler spawn an option instead of default feature. For now, you can do the following:

Open XComEncounterLists.ini in <<SteamLibrary>>\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1360751246\Config\ and add ; in front of each line here:
+SpawnDistributionLists=(ListID="DefaultFollowers", \\
SpawnDistribution[0]=(Template="BerserkerBoss", MinForceLevel=20, MaxForceLevel=20, MaxCharactersPerGroup=1, SpawnWeight=20), \\
SpawnDistribution[1]=(Template="ViperBoss", MinForceLevel=20, MaxForceLevel=20, MaxCharactersPerGroup=1, SpawnWeight=20), \\
SpawnDistribution[2]=(Template="ArchonBoss", MinForceLevel=20, MaxForceLevel=20, MaxCharactersPerGroup=1, SpawnWeight=20), \\
)

(if you want to reduce the spawn rate of alien ruler clones, simply change the number from 20 to anything lower)

anybody else having it spawn all 3 ruler clones at once? cause this is not fun. pls help.

Has anyone tested this with LWOTC?

All fun and laughs until I faced a 5 men squad of 100hp berserkers... Like whattttt?

does this work with Renegade Rulers?

Warning: Alien Rulers are not affected by Beta Strike.

WARNING: ALIEN RULER CLONES ARE AFFECTED BY BETA STRIKE.
There is no pain comparable to 200hp Berserker Queen with Prime Reactions.

I just encountered an Archon Ruler as the squad leader of 3 Viper King, plus a Prime Sectopod and its minions from ABA.

Seriously, super fun time were had on this Ironman mission xD It was crazy

Someone knows how to add the Ruler reation to this enemies?

I second the below ask.

Any chance to update for some of the new custom rulers... specifically The Hive and Corrupt Avatar rulers?

bug report Animation error
Snake has long lag on her Tongue when she Draging unit.

why can't i download this? i subscribe to the mod and it doesn't show up in my workshop folder, or in my mod manager lists. Its the only mod this happens too, is it me, or is it the mod?

game crashes when clone alpha takes any damage

Would the duplicate armours that are added by this mod be affected by any changes made to the original armours by these mods?

And also, would the cloned Rulers be affected by any mods which make changes to the original Rulers?

Do the Clone Rulers try to escape like the originals?

Sorry if that's a lot of questions all at once but I'm trying to figure out if this is a mod I can use with others that are must haves in my opinion.

@KimKast would you mind telling where to find the XcomEncouterLists.ini so i can edit it equaly if the author has not uppdated this.

Q: seems Clone Alpha's reaction ability overwrites Archon Prime's in ABA.(i found when i localization for my uses). had any opinion for it?

@Highlander in MOD Config folder, XComEncounterLists.ini has SpawnDistributionList. I found distribution array writes [0] = Berserkerboss [1] = ViperBoss [2] = ArchonBoss [0] = Gatekeeper [1] = Sectopod, means(at least I think) Beta and Gamma spawn eaten by Gatekeeper and Sectopod. when i rewrite them to [3] and [4] i can get clone beta and gamma's corpse lol

@KimKast Same here, only getting Alpha (I installed after forcelevel 20)

No, it's just a change to their spawn rates

Have Gatekeeper and Sectopod also been modified ?
I found their code changed in XComEncounterLists.ini

@KimKast: most likely poor RNG, but hey, Icarus Armors.

And yes, it's meant to drop next turn.

Question2, Cloned alpha's Devastate ability works differently with original. Clone's devastate drops next ailen turn, not prime reaction. is that intended? i disappointed little when i conscious about that XD

Question1. I encountered cloned alpha many times, but beta and gamma never came about 2 years(never see them at july,2037). Did they appear at force level 20 like alpha? or I just unfortunate?
