(Copied from the LW2 version, but removed the (incorrect) line about the plasma rifle taking 1 action to fire. Also added a gameplay tip for dealing with Najas and a line about their Yellow Alert behavior. Added Poison Spit to their Abilities table. Updated some links to their LWOTC versions. Some pictures are still missing, like they are on the LW2 page.)

The '''Naja''' serve as marksnakes, bolstering the alien forces with direct fire support. They have high accuracy and can shoot at Squadsight range with their plasma rifles. To compensate, they are less mobile and have less dodge than other vipers.

* The Naja's plasma rifle '''takes 2 actions to fire''', meaning that the only offensive ability they can use after a movement action is Poison Spit.
 
−
** A Naja will ''never'' shoot if flanked at any distance, even Squadsight range, which combined with the fact mentioned above means that a soldier equipped with a Medikit or who is otherwise Poison-immune (such as [[SPARK_(LWOTC)|SPARKs]] or units with [[Perk_List_(LWOTC)#Fortress|Fortress]]) can effectively make them harmless by flanking them every turn.
 
−
* In LW2 and early versions of LWOTC, a Naja could shoot at targets at Squadsight range while on Yellow Alert. This was deemed too unfair, especially during missions in which all enemies start on Yellow Alert, such as Intel Retaliations, and as such, was removed.

 +
* Like most flankable units, they will ideally try to find reasonable cover whenever flanked. This can be taken advantage of if you want to force enemies to move. This is especially punishing for Naja's as their sniper rifle requires 2 actions to fire so spending a move effectively skips their turn. Be careful though as ridding them of any possible safe positions or flanking yourself can instead encourage them to make a last ditch effort to injure our soldiers.
 +
* Poison Spit can easily be negated by simply carrying a medikit which grants poison immunity. This immunity can also block the initial poison when spat at, wasting their turn. While Viper's can sometimes spit at a single target, if you group multiple units closeby with immunity it will encourage the viper to spit but is then wasted as you can't be affected.
 +
* As the sniper rifle requires 2 actions to fire, another way to avoid them is to get out of reasonable line of sight. Attempt to take advantage of the environment to avoid being shot at.

The Naja are a Viper variant specialized as a sniper.

The Naja is a viper variant that is specialized in sniping and exchanges their physical strength for deadly precision. Their weaon of choice is a sniper rifle which allows them to fire at extreme range but requires 2 actions to fire and is not very effective in close range. A more lighter body also makes them incapable of binding targets but instead are capable of scaling buildings sliding along walls to reach higher elevations. As a sniper, they are capable of greatly taking advntage of higher elevation and utilize it to the max as they progress. Similar to Vipers, they are immune to poison

Fire Control (25)
'Reaction shots do not fire if the hit chance is less than 25%.
Squadsight
*Squadsight is best augmented by high ground, allowing soldiers relatively clear sight lines and an additional aim bonus to offset Squadsight's aim penalty. *When using Squadsight, there is no limit on how far your targets can be, but an aim penalty accumulates with distance. *Overwatch shots do not use squadsight by default.
You can target enemies within squadmates' sight, provided there is line of sight to the target.
Damn Good Ground
*Confers +10 aim and +10 defense against targets at a lower elevation. *This ability does not provide defensive bonuses if the unit is disoriented, stunned, panicking, on fire or otherwise impaired.
Confers +10 aim and +10 defense against targets at a lower elevation.
Poison Immunity
XCOM2 infoIcon custom 1.png
Immune to poison
Long Watch
*Like the Overwatch ability it upgrades, Long Watch suffers a base penalty to aim. *Long Watch also suffers the Squadsight penalty to aim that increases with distance.
Allow Overwatch to trigger with Squadsight.
Center Mass
*You do one additional point of base damage with your primary weapon, pistols or a sawed-off shotgun.
You do one additional point of base damage when using guns.

Tips

  • Like most flankable units, they will ideally try to find reasonable cover whenever flanked. This can be taken advantage of if you want to force enemies to move. This is especially punishing for Naja's as their sniper rifle requires 2 actions to fire so spending a move effectively skips their turn. Be careful though as ridding them of any possible safe positions or flanking yourself can instead encourage them to make a last ditch effort to injure our soldiers.
  • Poison Spit can easily be negated by simply carrying a medikit which grants poison immunity. This immunity can also block the initial poison when spat at, wasting their turn. While Viper's can sometimes spit at a single target, if you group multiple units closeby with immunity it will encourage the viper to spit but is then wasted as you can't be affected.
  • As the sniper rifle requires 2 actions to fire, another way to avoid them is to get out of reasonable line of sight. Attempt to take advantage of the environment to avoid being shot at.
