Description
Note: There are no further updates to this version except for debugging.
Rework version link:Rework Psionic MEC Troopers

This mod is re-born as a powerful MEC Trooper at the sacrifice of your psi mod class.

Q&A
Q: Who wants THIS!? I wanted to replace the Templars and Psi Operatives' arms and legs with robots. NOT A MOD CLASS.

A: Thank you for waiting. Now Templars and Psi Operative can also be psi mec. Just be careful because you have to sacrifice very useful psi classes and a lot of resources.



Acquisition
SAME AS MEC- but use your psionic class.

1. Mechanized Warfare or Lost Towers must be completed first,
2. Research MEC Augmentation in the proving ground.
3. Build the MEC Foundry upgrade in the Proving Ground.

and Let your psi class undergo MEC Trooper augmentation surgery. You will then see options that have not been undone for other classes. - Focus OS systemp


Specializations- Focus OS system
Gain Focus during missions through the Psi-Focus Protocol, can be spent on powerful Psionic abilities.

Unlike the templars, Psionic MEC Troopers do not gain Focus by removing enemies from close combat. Instead, they acquire focus by overloading themselves with a unique skill:'psi-focus protocol.' Through the obtained focus, they activate the Momentum Protocol, which allows additional Momentum and multiple parries through it. This advantage is further enhanced with a continuous Rand via overdrive - the psi mec Trooper can stand firmly even in the intensified saturation that XCOM soldiers or other MECs will never overcome.

Psionic MEC Troopers will learn most psionic skills randomly, except for tanker of Melee Attack skills. Therefore, there is no fixed skill tree for them. However, most of their psi skills will not deny that they have a high synergy with their powerful mec body. I started a few examples through video.


Items
Psionic MEC Troopers use the same armour and bit
but They can only be used Kinetic Strike Module as a primary weapon.

Their Kinetic Strike Module also serves as a sort of Psi amp - it's a good idea to upgrade their weapons to improve the effectiveness of their psionic skills.


Allowed class
The following Mod classes can be psi mec.
(I tried to find as many WoTC psi classes as possible. Nevertheless, if there are any issues I am missing - I will add them as soon as they are verified.)

Psi Rookies WOTC
- Gifted

Rising Tides (WOTC)
- Marksman
- Berserker
- Gatherer

WotC Samurai Class
- Samurai

Necromancer Class - WOTC
- Necromancer

Warrior Of The Light (WOTC)
- Warrior Of The Light

[WotC]Puella Magi Class
- Puella Magi
- Fortis Magi
- Ascetic Magi

????
-???(has also Focus...so....This maaaay be possible)


Credits
Mana for basically providing the critical assets that let this mod exist at all.

Musashi for providing major help on adding animation work to the SPARK animations. (Otherwise MEC troopers wouldn't be able to open their eyes!)

Spart117MC for offering to make a base augment set of cosmetics that I'll be using for this mod as soon as the highlander updates with the support I need for that. (Weirdly enough completely demolishing a unit's internals to rebuild it for the MEC trooper to work at all didn't need highlander support in of itself: I just needed it to help smooth out other stuff)

and RealityMachina completed all the basic systems of mec. I pay homage to his creativity and efforts. If he did not release these mods - I could not do anything.

Is it possible to get mec troopers to work correctly on teleport platforms, such as the chosen boss fight ones? I was down two members when I tried to use them.

please update with the new kinetic module https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2449319965

Any plans to allow this mod to work for LWOTC?

Sorry to hear that. :( Yeah, do try again, never give up! :D

@Olof Plays
Not good. I am now suffering from an error of unknown reason. Guess I'll have to try again.

How is the rework coming along Alterd? :D

@Alterd-Rushnano
Will it be made compatible with Iridar's Spark Arsenal. One of the annoying things is losing Dual Strike when one one of the bonded pairs is turned on a Psi-Mec.

@Unorthodoxy
Does Focus OS System even show up after upgrading to Mec Troopers? If not it might be because of the crappy new launcher that 2K just rolled out.
The Alternate Mod Launcher should work. If not you might have to edti the class data .ini to enable them.

[Notice matter]
There will be a major rework of the psionic mec trooper mod. I've also considered updating this, but I had to take into account that this mod was left unattended for too long. Because a lot of people are already using the mod.

A separate rework mode with bug fixes and concept changes will be raised accordingly, in which case there will be no further updates to this mod.

maybe this mod conflicts with supreme focus because for some reason my templar can't fire off a arc wave
