Changes to Advent Duelist
- I've introduced a new version of the Mag Talon and hidden the 3 original ones. This new one is gated behind Magnetized Weapons as well as the Advent Duelist Autopsy, and offers stats equal to the Mag Pistol but with a little faster infiltration speed and a +5 aim bonus. It does not have any attachment slots at all, and does not grant the Quickdraw ability, but does grant the Ankle Shot ability (same as what the Advent Duelists themselves use). It costs the same to build as a Mag Pistol, plus one Advent Duelist Corpse. You won't be able to upgrade this with better weapon tech, but the Ankle Shot ability should keep it relevant for most of your campaign, even on soldiers that don't necessarily specialize in pistol use.

- The Elite Duelist (M3 version) no longer has the Fan Fire ability, but now has the Faceoff ability. They also have AI changes to allow them to use Faceoff. Like Fan Fire, they typically prefer to use Faceoff with their second action rather than their first.

- The Ankle Shot ability has a new icon, but you need to be subscribed to Ketaros 2D Package for it to work. This is handled in XComWeaponSkinReplacer.ini and can be commented out if you don't want the change or don't have that mod.

- The Ankle Shot ability has a new localization to give more details on how it works, since it's accessible to the player now.

- If you have Additional Ammo Types installed, all tiers of Advent Duelist now have Scramble Rounds equipped.
