Argenta the new Xcom Commander?

[Sarkas1704]

I just wonderin if i have so much bad luck or is Argenta really that bad in Shooting. I pushed her to 55 BF but they miss so much from 5 Shots she missed 4. From 10 Shots she missed 8. And from 100 Shoots she missed 95.

The Only way for her is to become the new Xcom Commander.

No, instead Bolters are garbage & trap when you're lacking anti-Recoil items (or don't stacked crazy level of BS via Arch-Militant stacks).

Recoil is reducing your chance to hit for each shot in a burst besides 1st one. Then look on Recoil of bolters... Ouch.

if argenta is having trouble hitting shots you haven't built her properly

For single shot, there is handy trinket that grants 100% accuracy. With combination of her ultimate, even single shots are pretty good.

She starts off bad but once she gets going she's amazing. Her custom starting gun is especially bad.

Once I got her up to a heavy bolter she just vaporizes everything.

Well built Argenta with heavy bolter massacres everything in sight - starting from Act 2. Seeing how weak standard bolters are, it's better to give her a lasgun than bolter in Act 1.

Make sure you give her the +1 RoF items, Gunslinger's Helm, Stimulant Injector, Tempestus carapace backpack and she can kill anything in one turn.

Yep your right im just start act 2 today.... Wow what a journey :D

I thought the improved lasgun would be better but they're not.

Argenta is better with a bolter.

The less recoil has odd side effect that shots are less spread out which means they just missing everything instead of randomly going into targets

I'm in ch 2 exploring the space map and currently Argenta, along with cassia, are the only party members who do decent damage.

Everyone else is just a decoy or buff/support role.

Argenta deletes anything with a bolter if she has the right talents.

[~ Fabulous ~]

are you using the starter bolter? that thing is trash my dude, give her lasrifle or something early game until you get better bolter or flamers

[Morgian]

I used other burst weapons on her till I got the better bolter from Upperway. She never becomes the monster Ulfar is (if he just were smaller), but she is a holy terror alright. Like 22 bullets for 40-50 per bullet with the +firerate gear...had to switch to some drukhari weapon as bolters have too few ammo.

[Aranador]

Get rid of her starting bolter.

[REhorror]

There's literally an item you can get into Act 2 (the based bolter charm) where the Emperor PREVENTS you from missing with bolter.

Oh dear.

Get her a heavy bolter and she's the best damage dealer in the game.

Calibrated Stubber instead if going for "best". Still arguable - Idira as carry is OP too. And definitely our MC would be better then Argenta as MC able to equip xenos weapons, including the best one in the game - Deadeye splinter rifle.
