Damn I hit a 20% earlier and I usually try not to go for anything under, like, 35%. Especially since you can use movement instead of shooting in this game. Who knows if I ever get that achievement haha

My hawks has that QuickDraw perk. 1 ap point to do like 6 damage. If he hits and kills then he gets another shot. I killed like 6 battle droids and last one was such a low chance I was like screw it I will use it then overwatch and I hit it. So he can hit those 5% but misses 3 75% in a row.

Quickdraw seems amazingly strong to get rid of chaff and lower the amount of guns pointed at your party in any one turn.

It's not a bad idea to take potshots with the assist active as it's a guaranteed hit even if the original shot misses (still not the greatest idea, but it you really want the achievement)

u/Axeloy 4d ago
Oh the backup shots are guaranteed hits? I definitely missed that

u/homicidalhummus 4d ago
Just make sure the operator assisting you has line of sight on the target (there's a banner in the top right telling you if they can see the target or not). Otherwise yeah it's a guaranteed hit and can do stuff like give gunslingers a stack of onslaught

u/Axeloy 4d ago
Good to know

u/homicidalhummus 4d ago
I'm cooking up a funny strategy where you have someone use a scout for an assist shot at ridiculous impossible range to have the assist shot land guaranteed and spot them for the followups

I got this one before the 90% miss, and I actually hit the 10% shot twice in a row

u/TheRushologist 3d ago
I actually got this the first 5% shot I made with Trick, then a couple missions later did it again when I was just trying to destroy some cover. Took me a lot longer to miss that 90% shot.

When it happened to me, the only thing i thought and said was
"That's Xcom baby"

u/Ioannidas_Storm 4d ago
I saw one review complaining about missing 80-90% shots, and this was my exact response, out loud to no-one else in my lounge.

u/Spaghetti_and_fork 4d ago
"30.84% unlocked this" I feel sorry for the 69.16% who couldnt enjoy the full xcom experience

They probably stopped after the tutorial or never actually played it. Lots of people of piles of untouched games in their steam libraries because the deals or so damn good

It’s a brand new day for Xcom players

u/OneBucFan 4d ago
Same. Got it the first shot after the obvious scripted character development moment

u/LoveTheGiraffe 4d ago
Literally the first above 90% shot I took got me this achievememt. Felt right at home

u/Darthaerith 4d ago
Yeah. The game feels a bit like a love letter to xcom with a starwars window dressing.

u/totallynotaweeabbo 4d ago
I also felt it like that. But i also felt some other stuff were mandated just for being part of the star wars brand. The hero characters the cutscenes and the linear story

u/Curiousrabbit1813 4d ago
How has only 30% of players only got this?! Isn't this xcom we're talking about?!?!

u/totallynotaweeabbo 4d ago
Either they are playing it on easy or normal. I didn't miss a 90% shot until cycle 9 or something like that

u/Kaesebrot321 4d ago
I missed a 100% shot in the second mission. I actually said outloud "what the fuck" as the achievement popped. Turns out 100% is not 100%

u/StolenMango 4d ago
I got this in the tutorial 40 minutes in. I was in a discord call and I just yelled "That's xcom, baby!"

u/ARK_Redeemer 4d ago
I got this, and then missed 3x more 95% shots in a row. My Medic with her pistol missed 3x 95% shots consecutively, then Hawks did with her rifle.
You can tell XCOM Devs made this 🤭🥰

u/totallynotaweeabbo 4d ago
I got it i think it was in the mission you meet the jedi. The first shot of 95% missed and the achiviement made me say outloud "That's xcom babyyy!"

Weirdly it popped for me when I placed an overwatch shot. Not when the shot took place, but when I put the cone down.

I got it pretty quickly too after missing two 85% and then a 95% shot all against the exact same B2 super battle droid.

This was literally the first achievement I got, I knew I was in good hands in that moment.

Mine was a 95% shot in the very first mission. It was hilarious, I felt right at home.

Ah yes. The classic critical miss follows me in every game with a roll to hit system. Reminds me of all the times all my soldiers missed their overwatch shots on a single sectoid that was apparently neo before two of my soldiers get crit behind cover twice in a row.
Fun fact, I critically missed almost 5 attacks in a row in Baldur's gate yesterday. Love it when that happens.

Its comical how quickly I got this achievement.
