XCOM 2 CAPTURE OR KILL FULL

Since any amount of damage will result in a clone, try to hit it with a single killing shot, ensuring that the Codex will not Clone. The remaining HP will be divided between the two clones, rounding up for the clone and down for the original (so if it attempts to clone at 1 HP, it will just teleport).

Clone: Whenever it takes damage the Codex will clone itself and teleport away, leaving two Codices on the battlefield.

If necessary, a soldier can be left in the Rift and ignore the damage, since it will not be lethal to a soldier with full health, although the rift detonation could destroy their cover. Auto-loaders can also allow your soldier to reload for free, allowing a soldier to act. This usually costs the turn of any soldier caught by it, since reloading and moving out of the area of effect to avoid the damage is a full turn of actions, though there are options that don't rely on the primary weapon, such as a Ranger's Slash, the Sharpshooter's pistol or using an item. The rift will detonate on the next turn for moderate damage to anything still in the area of effect.

This disables weapons of XCOM soldiers in the area (mechanically, it reduces their ammo to zero). Psionic Bomb: The Codex can summon a smallpsionic rift.However, its plasma weapon is not very high powered, so even a flanking critical hit will not be lethal once Predator Armor is unlocked. This ability means the Codex will almost always get a flanking shot every round, unless it uses another ability. This has a better-than-average movement range, doesn't trigger any reaction fire, and and represents a single action, so the Codex can attack any targets. Teleportation: The Codex will usually teleport instead of physically moving.For the storyline requirement, the best time to fight it is when there's no turn limit, allowing as much time as necessary to defeat the Codex.

It has high health, a high dodge rate (so even point-blank shots may 'graze' it for partial damage), and high accuracy. It is advisable to kill all other enemies on the map. You will first encounter the Codex after you attempt to Skulljack an ADVENT Officer. It takes the form of an electric yellow female-humanoid being, seemingly made entirely of energy, save for a metallic skull and a spinal column. The Codex is an alien mechanical unit that lives inside the alien psionic/data network.
