Unless the mission explicitly calls for it, grab the objective and try to get out of there. You don't have the earth and aim to defend, you're a guerrilla force recapturing. You don't need to be fighting and killing every single one. Originally posted by Rhystic_Two:Quick tips which will greatly improve your experience with LW2 and ease some of the frustration: I've completed more than a few escort missions with a 3-man squad without firing a single shot. It usually pays off taking alternate routes skirting off the map or going through buildings and narrow, more covered passages.

Do not rush unless absolutely necessary.ģ) DO NOT take the straight and most obvious route to your mission objective in any mission. Often turtling up for 1-2 turns and allowing the patrols to pass by before moving to the objective can save your mission effort entirely. In short, PICK your battles carefully.Ģ) Missions are not about the fighting, they're about getting to the objective asap and getting out of there as fast as you can. Especially in early game, you DO NOT want to engage ADVENT if their awareness level is fortified/guarded or activity is anything more than LIGHT. If you feel you absolutely need the reward, go for an infiltration boost allowing you a 100+ percentage before launching. You WILL LOSE the mission and most probably have your entire squad wiped out. Quick tips which will greatly improve your experience with LW2 and ease some of the frustration:ġ) DO NOT launch a mission before reaching 100%+ infiltration level.
