Ruler Reactions Revised - WotC

Description
Weakens rulers by only giving them reaction-turns in response to some XCOM actions

UPDATED TO SUPPORT WAR OF THE CHOSEN!
For a version that doesn't require War of the Chosen, see here

This mod makes rulers less overpowered by only giving them a chance of reacting to actions:
  • Offensive (any sort of attack): 100% chance to react
  • Defensive (eg. overwatch, healing, shield): 50%
  • Neutral (eg. reload, hack, evac): 0%
  • Movement: 0%
These probabilities are all adjustable using Mod Config Menu.

It should be compatible with any mod that adds/changes skills. I recommend also subscribing to Alien Rulers Immunities and Can't Execute Rulers for balance.

----------------------------------------------

Compatible with Long War 2!
Supports Mod Config Menu!

Classes Overridden (why do I care?):
None!

Cool but there should be something about them reacting to attacks not targeted toward them specially,the archon grabbed me on first turn cause I attacked another dude,then I went overwatch and he slam dunked me,felt dumb cause nothing was for him here

omfg i wish i knew this mod before, i had to cheese the berserk queen by not getting in her vision so she doesn't move, and let 2 lost slap the shit out of her for like 10 turns

thank fuck I can finally flank the viper king without using the 1-charge-only conceal or shadow

Yeah, this is great. Instead of forcing Ruler fights to conclude in 1 turn or less, otherwise risking your entire squad, I really think this is the way to go along with Dodge and Defense bonuses.

I'm curious though, I'm currently testing how well the "Canon Avatar" mod works with a few others, and was curious: does this mod affect any unit with the Ruler Reaction ability, or does it edit each Ruler individually?

Well, I just had encountered the Berzerker Queen, and she didn't respond to anything. Banish, Dual-shot or single fire. She had each ruler reaction turn (except for Banish, nothing happened, and for movement, but this, is intended in mod's feature), she has lost health because of burning and bleeding each of those turns, but she didn't manage to move and smash.

This mod is the only one touching ruler reaction. So there's a question mark for me about the reliability.

https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1723334446&searchtext=rocket its this mod by Iridar. Its fine i can live with it. Good work on the mod anyway

@Dragonlord: That would be a bug in the other mod then. They need to correctly set the hostility of the action in the action template.
Dragonlord 29 Mar, 2021 @ 2:52pm 
Well i guess it doesn't play well with other mods. Hitting it with Rockets from IRIDARs mod doesn't count as aggressive action. Oh well.

First time I got in long enough to encounter a ruler, he couldn't take any actions at all so I killed him with immense ease.







I love this mod...
