Think about it what if someone doesn't like the orange one? They won't give you any money that's what.
Also you might as well take the Sentinel A-1 BPO out of the equation because combat rifles are going to obliterate them, and it won't be able to kill proto heavies anymore. It will likely struggle to take advanced ones out now that the projectiles are getting a buff to armor. Don't even bother selling this it won't be worth running a basic heavy anymore. |

I'm a little confused as to why people are so upset over the change. Shield suits have had to deal with a +20/-20 damage profile for a very long time, so why are Sentinels so upset about the -15/+15 for projectiles?

you just watch what happens when CRs and HMGs get a bonus to armor. just ******* watch.
i'll likely have to start using an advanced burst heavy to compensate |

CRs and HMGs already have a bonus to armor, it's just going to be increased slightly. So yeah, I'm already watching, and it's fine.
SP Sinks? Fixed.

Assumed no modules to show how Standard Sentinel will perform, addition of modules will boost eHP further, obviously.
Amarr Sentinel (-5/10) Profile 1172 total eHP
(-10/10) Profile 1198 total eHP
(-15/15) Profile 1196 total eHP
(-20/20) Profile 1202 eHP
so eHP of a Standard Amarr Sentinel will actually increase with this change.
This is because its shield resists will increase by 5% more than the armor weakness increases, causing a slight net increase in overall eHP.

And that's the exchange you make for having more low slots, when plate offer basically double the benefit to shield extenders.

The orange set is pretty fugly and while I do like the green set, I wouldn't give CCP any money for it. So if there isn't an event that hands some out then I won't be getting any; unless Legion comes out and is what Dust was supposed to be.

Well, you did gain a low in exchange for a high...if you want to speak strictly in terms of HP, that's actually a good deal.

i doubt we gained HP against remotes or a 20/20 profile projectile when we lost that shield |

You did, considering you lost 72.6 shields and gained ~140 armor from the deal.

A complex shield extender gives you 72.6 HP, with a 20% reduction against explosive that increases your eHP by 90.75.
A complex armor plate give you 148.5 HP, with a 20% weakness against explosives that gives you an increase of 123.75 HP.
Trading a high for a low, if using complex modules, increases your eHP by ~ 33HP in the case of taking explosive damage.

My Main can only use Sentinels and this change doesn't bother me.
The lowest health Amarr Sentinel I have is 450 shields & 915 Armor, just over a 2 to 1 ratio favoring armor. With the -15/+15 from -5/+10 is a 2 to 1 difference-of-change favoring shield tanking. The change makes it negligibly better at killing this Sentinel where the difference might as well be zero.
On the more tanked fits the difference grows more significant. But once you're rocking 1000 to 1200 armor do you really care anymore?

Less significant that you might think. Check out the link in my signature, I do a full breakdown of all damage types against all sentinels, as well as a comparison for the potential options for the new Projectile profile.

well they really don't have much easier of a time against hybrid rail now that they took some of their armor away
top 10 things that scare me the most in my amarr heavy
- a decent red heavy
- the above's logi
- scouts
- remotes
- any shield tanking suit
- rail rifles
- combat rifles
- shotguns
- forge guns
- sniper rifles
edit: oh and shield tanking suits are about to go up to number 3 in that list soon |

pokey's right
if there was a module that made you strafe faster in the low slot i'd use it so fast it's not even funny. i'd drop two plates for two of those. "joint lubricator" or something it would be called |

Again, they resist 15% of the rail damage to their armor, plus because they have 2 highs their shields also increased making the difference between armor and shields smaller, meaning that the effect of damage type is also smaller. In fact the Gallente are the strongest sentinel against Rails now with a max eHP of 1,726, followed by the Amarr at 1,708.

LMAO ok thank you, 'Joint Lube' made me crack up in the middle of the office here. They're all looking at me like I'm a lunatic but that's pretty funny.
As for low slot speed mods, one module we used to have for vehicles was Nanofiber structure. Basically increased movement speed at the cost of armor. It was amazing for shield vehicles, I wish we had it still
