After years of covering Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes, the Star Wars gaming universe finally has solid, new content in the form of Star Wars Hunters. Today I profile the Imperial Sentinel, one of these new, unique characters introduced to us in Star Wars Hunters.
The Sentinel is an Imperial Heavy Gunner and Tank is Star Wars Hunters and is described as an arrogant, loud-mouth leftover from the Empire. The Sentinel is an easy character to use and the game’s difficulty meter seems spot-on here with a rating of 1 difficulty and considers the Ugnaught/Droideka combo Slingshot an ally in-game.
From a damage perspective, he does decent damage and can attack from a distance while also handling melee enemies, knocking them back with his Barrel Slam ability. His Combat Shield ability is the main ability for the Sentinel that in essence doubles his health when used, allowing him to take more damage while in action. The Suppressing Shot ability does average damage and will knock an enemy down but consumes weapon heat.
