After taking Minmatar Sentinel to 5, I personally have some qualms when it comes to the sentinel suits. I find that the damage reduction is nice, but it only really works about 25% of the time, and even then only on either my shields or armor. I feel this is a problem that should be corrected. Not the damage reduction itself, but in how we tank up sentinels.
Here is my proposal: give Sentinels a damage reduction bonus to all damage on both shields and armor, then as a racial bonus give them an increase to their racial tank. I feel like giving them a bonus to modules encourages stacking and I want to avoid that, so instead I would have the racial bonus apply to the base suit, allowing you to fit whatever you want without feeling cheated.
Sentinel bonus: 2% damage reduction per level
Amarr: +5% base armor per level
Caldari: +5% base shield per level
Gallente: +1 armor repair per level
Minmatar: +5% shield recharge per level
In this way, we improve the racial tank without forcing the fitting of certain modules, especially considering how limited slot space is on sentinels. This also improves damage resistance to everything, meaning sentinels are tankier versus everything as opposed to two types of damage, sometimes split between shields and armor.
Numbers are up for change, constructive criticism appreciated.
Mercs whine about the rail rifle but refuse to shield tank to counter it.
But that's none of my business.

No. This makes them OP. Right now they are balanced, but almost OP. This would make them ridiculously more powerful.
"Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

Sentinels are more than fine as is. They have better base HP and ample slots. The only potential change id consider is playing with certain resistances if they should be on armor or shields, but the dual resist one the racially aligned tanking rack is great.
Honestly Sentinels are the best designed line of suits in terms of role and racial alignment.

Commando says hi.
There's also the issue that we still only have two heavy weapons, one of which (for some ******** reason) has cripplingly short range, the other of which is actually difficult for 80-95% of players to try and blapsnipe infantry with.

No to all of this, we don't need any more sentinels or scouts in the game. It's awful as it is. |

Do not buff me further.
Goddamn you Sentinels are not underpowered.
Minmatar sentinels are oddball because their laser resist is on the shield, and the plasma on armor.
There is NO resistance to rails or projectiles.
Fit minmatar for shield tank, add a rep and a cardiac regulator or a rep and kincat
Or two kincats.
