there's not much a Krogan Sentinel can do that a Krogan Soldier can't do just as well
Exactly.
It's like, yeah, Krogan Sentinel can make good use of the Tech Armor's damage reduction, especially since you don't have to worry about recharge times.
But in that case, Tech Armor is basically just functioning as a worse Fortification.

sentinels are better at melee since they take less damage and get melee boosts due to tech armor
Fortification has a better melee boost, just less damage reduction
a sentinel with a shotgun with the blade on it and rage and tech armor has all the melee damage they need, they take less damage, and their melee boost does not rely on activation
The benefits just don't outweigh the recharge penalty and on top of that it seems the Sentinel class requires it to stay alive. Maybe the Brogan Sentinel is decent with good weapons but outside of that it feels like an incredibly underpowered class.
My human sentinel doesn't really feel underpowered. But it feels like I am playing an adept
maybe Soldier is more effective at melee. maybe (I actually don't know)
But I am already speccing my Sentinel for melee. It seems like I should focus more on ranged with the Soldier, given access to Carnage. Also like Shoe is mentioning - I need to purge my extra damage protection to get full benefit. I kinda want that protection when I am up close.
KSent for melee. KSoldier for ranged
I havent played my krogan soldier though so this is a lot of speculation
you're still ridding yourself of your damage reduction
which I would argue you need most at melee range
well it's only 10-15% less DR, I think that's worth it for 20-50% melee
yeah you have to purge the DR to access melee, but that's only an issue the first time. The melee boost lasts long enough that you can chain the cooldowns to make it active forever.
considering that the extra 50% damage doesn't make a large difference against most non boss like foes, i would rather have the damage reduction. I can already kill everythign short of brutes in one hit, why do i care if i can over kill them?
So it takes 67 promoted multiplayer characters to get the "best" ending
just to get a scale of how awesome those characters are at their jobs under 100 can take on the reapers without help from all the fleets in the milky way

They are also dead even with a loyal Grunt. 5 points more than the most powerful ship non-Normandy in any fleet.

Given some of the shit I have seen vanguards and adepts do I have no difficulty believing this.
I enjoy turian sentinel. I could see doing it without tech armor, but with tech armor maxed I could still dish out overload as quickly as I wanted, slightly more powerful, and with a good amount of survivability. It's a good caster for the higher difficulties.
Just need to level it up again after promoting it. Without tech armor maxed, yeah the cooldowns suck.

the guy playing our salarian infiltrator sang mordin's whole little song into voice chat
All you do is punch and shoot, there's no cooldown on either
soldier might be better at both
but I can't have both at the same time, so this is what I'll go with

sentinels are better at melee
fact
yes
we're talking +80% vs +30% melee boost here
My human sentinel doesn't really feel underpowered. But it feels like I am playing an adept
(I don't use tech armor on him at all)
which I would argue you need most at melee range
you can't call them equal in that sense

the hornet is really good
I'll let you guys know how it goes

tried this
in the words of jay sherman
it stinks

I'm not gonna take a melee guy to gold
and I already know it's laughably effective on bronze
so as long it's reasonably effective on silver, I'm good
As long as you aren't totally reckless it is pretty effective
They are also dead even with a loyal Grunt. 5 points more than the most powerful ship non-Normandy in any fleet.
Grunt is a boss.
Why I fear the ocean.
Just be careful if you're soloing banshees and you'll be fine.

when am I going to get krogan vanguard
every time i use that class i'm disappointed anew
get real powers, chumps
I need to know.
kind of interested in the former
do not give two shits whatsoever about the latter
proximity mine is boss
Just need to level it up again after promoting it. Without tech armor maxed, yeah the cooldowns suck.
whoa when did I become a turian
bullshit your fortification is better than our tech armor
but it's comparable
and that is why sentinel is the worst class in ME3, because it has no identity of its own
Ah ME2, how I missed your broke-ass PC interface.
(Okay, it's not really that broken but it is super annoying that scrolling and double-clicking doesn't work.)
