CONCLUSIONAmarr clearly have the advantage in terms of base Effective HP. However, low shield HP means they will be reliant on repair tools for support unless they sacrifice armor plating for passive reps.
Gallente have the potential for the most armor HP but decent shield HP may encourage them to use armor repairers over plates for a full passive fit. They do however have the lowest damage output of all the sentinels.
Caldari will be AV monsters. With 4 high slots they have the highest damage output with strong shields for solo regeneration and decent armor as a backup. They will however suffer from lower EHP than Gallente or Amarr because shield extenders are not nearly as beneficial as armor plates.
Minmatar are the most flexible sentinel with 3 high slots for shield tanking, but 2 low slots and good base armor HP for armor tanking. Minmatar sentinels could choose for a very fast shield tanked fit, or a slower armor tanked fit with better damage output.
