The Sentinel, How to buff it. Increase range to 500 meters plus.

There is no reason to use the Sentinel. It is outclassed by the longbow in every way. Either give is major buff or remove it from the game. Its useless. Many times have tried using it as a long r...

@hhnbbfggty66 I'm on the fence with this one.

When it first arrived I wasn't impressed, I felt the Longbow was a preferred choice for me. Faster fire rate, strong enough, etc.

But now, weirdly, I feel myself leaning the other way and I'm not sure why. I think a lot of it depends on the sort of engagements I enter into, and how my teammates are. If we're rushing - Longbow. Cautious - Sentinel. I love the sound and look of it, it feels like a "proper" sniper.

That being said, due to its low rate of fire and the way the shield charges expire over time, I wouldn't oppose a buff of some sort. I agree that as a bolt action, it should have more advantages in other areas.

Best sniper (disregarding the Kraber ofc) is the Triple Take anyway, beast of a weapon.

    @littlxrI see you are a man of culture as well. Also i like the Sentinel when playing Lifeline cause the blue bins and ultimates give you a ton of unused shield cells anyway. That and it looks hilariously large on her, like how oversized the Spitfire is when Wattson uses it, looks so adorable.

        I mean, I agreed with you that a buff wouldn't go amiss, but sure, I guess I'll go * myself then.
