For starters, linky to Aeon Amadi's excellent data digging:

NowGǪ the new Sentinel suit bonuses look solid to me as a Heavy player. I am worried, however, that they are going to be so damn beefy that people just slap ARs on them and use them for the hitpoints.
Fellow fatties, how would you feel if Sentinel suits (not basic Heavy frames) were limited to Heavy Weapons only in their main weapon slot?
In my less-than-humble opinion, that'd create an interesting split between Commando, which is light weapons only, and Sentinel, as heavy weapons only, from the more versatile basic Heavy frames.
0.02 ISK for your plus-sized thoughts.

Yeah, hitting that "New Topic" button with a change idea is always a dangerous gamble for a Forum Warrior's reputation.
Still, it'd break my big-boned heart to see Sentinel become the default AR scrub suit because of all that EHP. But given that it only applies to certain incoming damage types it might be fine as presented in Aeon's thread...

In that case, though, I'd argue that the upcoming Sentinel changes do not accomplish that. They just makes fatties fatter, without any guidance toward a particular role or purpose.
The blast bonus could stay, but maybe the second bonus should be racial weapon specific? (Means Amarr Sentinel keeps its lol useless bonus, that would be beneficial with the release of the rest of the heavy weapons.)

Just saw it. All I have to say is:
Holy **** CCP.
All the changes are interesting, but we're in for a wild ride on the nerf-buff train over the next six months while everything gets balanced out.
I still stand behind my original idea for the sake of differentiating Sentinel from the basic Heavy frame, but it might not be necessary to prevent scrubbery after all.
