The miswording in the Hellknight signifer's Arcane Armor Expertise ability was an error that slipped through development; the first sentence of this ability should be changed to match the following: "At 2nd level, if a Hellknight signifer has the Arcane Armor Training feat, he gains Arcane Armor Mastery as a bonus feat."

As for the 5th-level benefit of making usage of the Arcane Armor Mastery feat an immediate action rather than a swift action, the strengths of this make themselves known during certain situations, such as, as Enaris pointed out, counterspelling or spell-duels.

I hope its a free action because as a immediate the only thing I can think of is to use it as part of a readied action.

As it is the class is far better for divine casters then arcane 1 feat or 3 or a splash class.

Thank you.

How dose the immediate action help?

Immediate action from the PRD:

Much like a swift action, an immediate action consumes a very small amount of time but represents a larger expenditure of effort and energy than a free action. However, unlike a swift action, an immediate action can be performed at any time—even if it's not your turn. Casting feather fall is an immediate action, since the spell can be cast at any time.

Using an immediate action on your turn is the same as using a swift action and counts as your swift action for that turn. You cannot use another immediate action or a swift action until after your next turn if you have used an immediate action when it is not currently your turn (effectively, using an immediate action before your turn is equivalent to using your swift action for the coming turn). You also cannot use an immediate action if you are flat-footed.

The 2nd lvl Hellknight Signifier Arcane armor expertise gives Arcane armor expertise as a bonus feat as far as i can tell there is no feat should it be Arcane armor master?
the 5th lvl Arcane armor expertise makes using arcane armor trainging a immediate action I can not think of a reason for this.

Hope it helps.

Can a human with the Racial Heritage feat take levels in an archetype that requires you to be of a specific race?
Yes, the Racial Heritage feat allows you to qualify for archetypes that have the chosen race as a requirement, assuming you still meet all of the other requirements to take levels in the archetype.

For Treesinger, no you can not take it as a human. Jason's ruling is for the overall Pathfinder rules. For PFS, we are more narrowly defining the rule.
