    Since the alleged revision based on the February 19th 2018 Patch 1.2 Notes 

    • Heavy - Supercharged Sentry - Reverted the heat per bullet tweak made for 1.1 patch, from 0.17 to 0.15

    Times still remain the same since the developer wrongdoing on January 16th 2018.

    Sentry - 13.25 seconds with a variance of .4 seconds

    Mobile Sentry - 5.90 seconds with a variance of .2 seconds

    Supercharged Sentry 3.30 seconds with a variance of .4 seconds

    Explosive Sentry 22 seconds with a variance of .25 seconds


    These times DO NOT include cool down or start parameters, only blast time, approximately. I have not explored these times in anything other than Arcade mode, but the same principle should apply, not withstanding getting shot by enemies, or explosives near position.


    Heavy - Supercharged Sentry is still useless since both of these updates.

Hi all, I couldn't agree more with this....I never had this card before the update so was looking forward to obtaining it after spending many crafting parts to get. - When I tried it I couldn't believe how USELESS it was...it takes more time to deploy then it does to use...I though this must be a bug. I have now stopped using it and just went back to the original sentry gun. This is clearly a flaw and needs to be fixed ASAP. What is the point in this lasting about 3 seconds??

    It has been overnerfed. Im ok with the nerf, the Sentry was way too much overpowered but what they did have to be a crime... I have my supercharged on purple and now its totally USELESS, and Im being nice saying only useless, its a complete garbage and I wasted more than 720 crafting part on it... So nice.

      I also have it fully upgraded...I wish I had saved the crafting parts for something else now....the overcharged Sentry will be collecting dust until its fixed if that ever happens.

        I'm cosigning this.

        When I got the game last mth, I went through a few of the classes and settled on the heavy to upgrade fully first. I felt like Arnold in T2 or Ventura in Predator 1 while using the the Supercharged Sentry. Now I have to carefully pick targets and only use it in spurts.

        It will be great if the time was increased a bit.

      @WiFiR18 @AlKDaniels

      Best outcome now is to just wait it out and hope EA will do the right thing. And to use the spot for another star card in its place and use only the standard Sentry - 13.25 seconds with a variance of .4 seconds is better than 3.3 seconds.

      If you are protected by other players, using the Explosive Sentry 22 seconds with a variance of .25 seconds would be a fine upgrade, maybe.. your choice of course.
