Stronger Templar Parry

Description
Allow templar to not waste the parry on missed shots.

This is totally not balanced for vanilla where parry is strong, this is meant for mod lists that greatly increases enemy numbers so parry seems useless against the amount of gunfire coming through.

You may also enable deflect/reflect even when parry is available through XComGame.ini

Compability:
Overrides X2Effect_Parry and X2Effect_Deflect

it depends on how the AOE is coded, usually an AOE effect still do a "hit roll" which have 100% to success, and templar parry intercepts that, but certain AOE damage such as environmental damage do not have these roll at all so will completely bypass templar parries (and ranger's untouchable)

Pardon me BG, I could be mistaken but didn't Templar's Parry use to protect from AOE attacks as well?

Hi, I love the mod, but I was just wondering if it’s compatible with the Templar overhaul mod ‘Proficiency Class Plugin: Templar’?

So you could ask Deacon Ivory - he tested it, apparently.

I know that mods can be a bit of work, but I ask because hopefully this is a simpler mod to make another version of, just changing around an ini file or something, rather than porting over an entire new cosmetic. Maybe I'm wrong, but hopefully not! Would be great to use your mod in LWOTC :)

@bg Any chance youd be willing to browse through their files and upload a LWOTC compatable version? They just released version 1.3 a couple days ago, and are near completion I hear, so it wouldnt be a waste of time, a lot of people use LWOTC.

snip3s,

Frankly, the faction heroes were underwhelming even in vanilla, save perhaps the Reaper.

best guess would be because LWOTC used different perks so this doesn't work.

I dont think this mod works anymore.... trying it with LWOTC, set up a scenario during an extraction mission. killed some guy, ended in half cover, and used Parry (with a smoke grenade from someone else for good measure) vs two Troopers. The first trooper shot, and missed, yay, but the second trooper shot and wounded me, like i didnt even have Parry enabled. I reloaded the save and tried again, exact same result. Why is this?
