Can you beat Into the Breach without Weapons?
Do you expect me to use my fists? ...Commander. (Camila Vera)
[Kazaaakpleth nods slowly]
Of course there is a very very small chance of getting hundreds of grid resist in a row and thus win at any difficulty without ever moving once, but in practical terms what can you do tactically in Into the Breach without any weapon?
Mostly blocking and baiting Vek attacks but I've finally found a reason to play on easy after more than 200 hours on hard, still finding something cool to try. After 20 failed attempts on normal, despite Kazaaakpleth best efforts, we prove that it is, in fact, possible without relying on the grid resist (easy enough to calculate but impractical for a human player: for example at 15% grid resist you can get 11 resist in a row approximately once per billion attempts, the probability being 0.15^11).
