I was about to do this a few days ago, thank you.

Thanks for posting that. It is a surprisingly good list. I'm sure there is a perk that lets one of the mercs use two grenades at once, after seeing it in a video (unless that wasn't a perk). Also, I think @Kordanor mentioned about the improved knife throwing when drunk.

One perk I am definitely not sure about is Trick Shot. While it is a good perk, it sounds as if none of those effects are achievable without the perk. Does that mean that without the perk, any shot to the arms and legs is just standard damage?

I'd suppose Trick Shot will guarantee such effects. Otherwise there's only low chance, maybe tied to crit.

Hitting someone in melee shouldn't always cancel overwatch? I mean an enemy is over your cover and is stabbing you, you aren't a robot that ignores this to focus on trying to kill people in another direction.

The two grenades throw is Fidel's unique skill.
There is no improved knife throwing while drunk, you must mistake with Igor's unique ability that improves MELEE damage while drunk, gives grit, but reduces ranged accuracy.
Trick shot : those effects are improvements from the normal effects, AFAIK

That's makes more sense about Igor's ability. It doesn't sound stupid now!
