How do you think we can solve this without being OP or another FoTM that everyone will spam?

Honestly, sentinels are some of the least expensive suits to run in the game. You shouldn't be upset about dying because you're incredibly isk efficient.

Has the AHMG dispersion hotfix gone through yet?

Generally speaking Sentinels generate less WP and thus make less ISK per battle than other suits.

Granted if you are squad lead, and put the defend order on your Logi, and have someone with a scanner so you can get points off of orbitals, you can do quite well on the WP, but a sentinel running solo will be low on the leader-boards, even if they have top kills, unless they also hack a lot, or just get a massive kill count.

Not having equipment slots results in lower earning potential.

Does this count? I will only add people to the registry if they are currently active primarily as a Sentinel or they have skilled a Sentinel suit to level 5 and still run it enough to still have a feel for it. If you are currently running a Dren Sentinel regularly that would count (even without skills), but I am not going to add you to the Sentinel Registry for running one off and on "Back In The Day". You are still welcome to post though. I ran Dren Sentinel for 6 months on Crash Gaden with no Sentinel suit skills, until they changed the Sentinel suit bonus and gave me a reason to skill into it. I understand, and thats alright. I don't run it much anymore, but I might skill back into them. and question, are forge guns good now? I haven't used them since 1.3, they used to be hella fun.
Megaman Trigger Ready to Play 302	Posted - 2015.04.30 00:48:00 - [134] - Quote This is what happens when I let my mind wander at work... Amarr AV - Scrambler Cannon - charged shot only Scrambler weapon designed to strip shields off vehicles. Uses Plasma Cannon model. 2 second charge and then fires scrambler blast. Breach variant charges slower but hits harder. Amarr AI - Heavy Laser - uses Forge Gun model. Gallente AV - Plasma Mortar - Heavy Plasma Cannon with increased direct and splash damage, but longer charge, shorter range and sharper drop. Uses Plasma Cannon model. Alternate Gal AV - reskinned Forge that fires charged plasma blasts. Cannot hold charge - acts like Assault Forge Gun. Gallente AI - Shot Cannon - Heavy Shotgun. Assault variant acts like Light Shot Gun, hits harder but with less ammo. Breach variant acts like a 'solid slug' round; short to mid range, no dispersion, high damage, low ammo capacity. Caldari AI - haven't been able to think of anything. Maybe a Heavy Magsec that behaves more like a real world P90? Minmitar AV - Missile Launcher - uses Swarm Launcher model. High direct damage, moderate splash damage and blast radius. Single shot before reload. Purifier. First Class.

Shields' natural resistance to explosives also need to be applied vs REs. Currently REs ignore both. Purifier. First Class.
