argenta's hit rate

[Cryptic]

kills my soul and gives me testicular cancer








even buffing the F out of her ballistic skill makes her like a tumor on the ahole of society.

There is an accessory that makes single shots from a bolter auto hit and with that she is an unstoppable murder machine.

Why would you ever use a single shot over burst fire?

To avoid hitting your own people. Because you only have a single round left (not all weapons have a magazine size that allows for a full burst, and some effects change how many bullets you can fire so even the ones that normally do can have instances where they don't have the ammo for a full burst). Because you only need a single round, and a burst is just wasted ammo. Some abilities require a single shot, and do not function with bursts or area effects. Or you might not actually want to kill the target, and instead soften it up to get some effect for another character.

There are multiple reasons to use single shots, though most of the time you are better off with burst attacks if the weapon is capable of doing so.

Or give her that -50% recoil gloves and go brrrr, it´s op one way or the other.
Not that anything else regarding the combat in this games combat is any more balanced.
It´s mostly a mix between op and useless skills and weapons.

Bc of Arch-Militant you want the odd single shot? And Firearm Mastery sometimes?

Ballistic skill does nothing against enemy dodge and cover. "Buffing the F out of it" generally just makes you crit more.

[Og-the-Trog]

My three cents:

-Pasqal hitting her with his starting ability "machine spirit communion" basically pumps her burst hitrate to ~90%; recoil BEGONE (this more or less justifies making him a grand strategist; he can apply it and Tactical Knowledge at the start of every combat)

-that 100% acc necklace applies to every target in the overpenetration line as well

-it synergizes really well with talents that buff/debuff based on number of attacks she's made (if you use that heroic act that lets her take [RoF] extra shots) & the number of enemies she's damaged

-arch friggin militant's primary self-buffing mechanic demands you alternate attack types. sure, that's what the heavy flamer is for, but making laser-accurate 100% overpenetrating shots at max bolter range is a pretty neat trick too


btw has anyone else tried out her kick+martial arts ability? It might not be optimal, but it's really kinda fun, ngl
heavy flamer a boss and his goons->
run & gun->
kick flaming boss towards your least favorite goon, proninating him->
heavy bolter burst critcritcritcritcritcritcritcrit :chef's kiss"

-edit
oh my god I just got ulfar and with Peak Condition bumping his STR to 130+ I'm afraid of what his kicks will do to people

because with certain build you can have her act twice in a round and shot few dozen times in total with 100% acc and heavy crits ;) between her and Cas's AOE you can finish most encounters extremely quickly.

[George W. Kush]

you can get her to crit more then twice. there is a passive option for arch mil where it adds crit hit chance to every stack of versatility you have.

[Og-the-Trog]

Activating confident approach with 4 or more stacks makes every hit a crit (with damage reduced by a factor of your normal crit chance).
