I have been; Argenta is pretty incredible with this build.
Heads-up that the talent that's listed in the guide now for that same slot, Brutal Hunter, is a Death World talent, and Argenta is Imperial World. I went ahead and bumped up the guide's 2 other common talent choices (Characteristics Training: Agility at AM 19 and Swift Movements at Exemplar 3) for my Argenta. For the new missing spot in Exemplar 3, I'm thinking of doing Characteristics Training: Strength or Ballistics Skill (depending on whether or not I wanna use the heaviest bolters).
Thanks for the ping on this. Yeah, it's probably a hangover from my review build that got changed in a recent patch, and I've not noticed it till these comments came through. Shifted some talents around between Row 9 and 16 to make up for it. Not much is changing to be honest, just a few slightly delayed AP or damage reductions. Thanks again. I hope you enjoy the build!
It did. I reworked the build since the Pair Holster and the Confident Approach skill were bugging out and not always guaranteeing crits when they should do, which then stopped the extra attack proc from triggering. It became more damage-efficient to change the build-up to what it is now. I should still have an old build template I can send to you if you still want to follow it?

Argenta gets demolition at lvl 2 now not awareness
Thanks for the heads up, we've updated the page.
Heya, on archmilitant 9 you have brutal hunter, an ability she does not get
Thanks for the comments. She's Death World on my save still for some bizarre reason so I sadly wasn't aware it wasn't perfect 1:1 for you :(. Updated it again. Thanks again for your message :)
You also mention "lifetime of scars" during the archmilitant write up
Question: Did this used to be a guide with flame weapon? What happened to that guide?

One more caveat: Argenta cannot use the heavy bolter dropped from the boss of the first chapter, since it requires the worldview of a heretic, and Argenta is a Dogmatic one.
Good spot. My Bad. I shall update the suggestion with the Drussian trader who sells one when you reach Rep 4 with them and have 36 Profit Factor. Thanks again :D
Level 9 of her Arch-Militant tree seems to have been changed to a common talent slot, so you can't take Heavy Gunner in that slot anymore.

Yep, this is still an issue with the current version of this guide.
Looks like this happened to a few different Archetypes' Level 9 Unlock 2 talent.
The skill table for the soldier is not true (levels 10, 11, 13 and 14). In this scenario, Argenta will not have enough 5 points of Strength to use heavy weapons.
Yeah you're right the build doesn't work anymore. I just unequipped the Heavy Bolter and I can't requip. Looks like she got nerfed by 5 strength in today's patch. I shall update the build momentarily. Thanks for alerting us! :D
