Damage System (Theory)
- Regarding the different numbers seen in the Armory info and the actual game values, the theory is that the base damage range can vary, i.e. a weapon listed with a 9 damage can vary between 8 and 10 and you see the maximum damage before firing.
- How the critical damage is applied isn't clear/proven. The model below assumes that there are separate rolls, 1 for normal damage, then it is added the value of another roll for critical damage, which are then added.
- The other model is that the maximum damage for a critical hit is the one listed but that doesn't fit with actual combat results, since there are examples of Heavy Plasmas dealing 16 damage to a flanked soldier or a Plasma Sniper Rifle dealing 22 damage to a Sectopod.
- Based on this model, the tables below indicate how many shots (Base or Critical) are usually required to take down the aliens.
- BASE = alien can be killed with 1 shot; CRIT = alien requires either 2 normal shots or 1 critical hit with usually maximum critical damage.
