    Just playing around with other champs. Psylocke produces as much damage as Sentry if not more and has an actual use in the game...she's not meant to be a big damage dealer either. They really messed up this champ.

    I understand that you pulled Sentry, and that you are disappointed in him and unhappy with how he plays. But they have already stated he won't be changed at the moment, if at all. Just asking over and over the same thing everyday won't make them speed this up. If he is ever buffed it will be in a few months time the earliest, and you know this already

    Understandable, but I’m pretty sure you know as much as I do how bad he is, and the fact kabam mike says he good just means he is not listen to anybody. And about me me asking everyday;you never know if it could work. It’s not like it takes much effort to post something

    porfavor kabam as algo con sentry mínimo aumenta su probabilidad de activar sus potenciadores.. es inservible con sus habilidades con 30% tendría que estar al 60% para que sea algo mejor . danos alguna señal o algo que nos diga que vas a mejorar a sentry un personaje que puede llegar o superar a hiperion en sus habilidades.. aun no pierdo las esperanzas

    Something weird had to happen during the development process. No way anyone thought he was a solid champ. Either they nerfed him way to hard before release or they are planning a really great synergy in the near future. It would have to be an incredibly power synergy though, more so than any we've seen. His entire design is to be a pure damage dealer with no utility or defensive abilities. As it stands now utility champs put out much more damage. It just doesn't make any sense, I really thought we were past these kind of mistakes.

    Well there was a long emergency maintenance before his realese, even if he was God tier, i wonder why they nerfed him, heard they did same with Carnage. I mean they let others like Stark Spidey be amazing and they dont nerf him? Mmmmm strange.

    It's very unfortunate the state Sentry is in this. Not even my favorite Marvel character. No i don't think he should be as "powerful" as in the comics and what not. I just want him to be useable in aq/aw. Also tired of these supposedly "long fights" when kabam introduces enrage timers (in LoL) and 3 minute timers in (AQ/AW). Very unfortunate and what's sadder is Kabam is going to do the whole "lets ignore this sentry thread until 2 weeks later when we introduce a new champ that we expect people to move to."

    Sentry is actually bugged. I have been using him alot (my favorite champion) and have noticed these bugs so far: states change /activate when they should not. Say im at 9, 19, 29 hits, states often switch which should not happen since its every 10 hits. Ive also noticed states remain even when they should be switched. Ive been at 4 hits and still have absolute strength (last stage) activated, the stage should have reset.
    Another bug i have noticed is specials become unblockable even when they should not. For example, one fight i was in overpowring light stage. It was not even actiaved (of course), i launched a special 2 and it was unblockable as i did 8k crit on a blocking target. Overpowering light allows a special 1 to become unblockable so this just goes to show how sentry is bugged/broken because specials become unblockable even when on the wrong stage and it isnt even activated.
    I undersatnd these bugs actually help Sentry. My intention is not to hamper Sentry even more, but just to give some insight that Sentry is bugged and needs to be fixed. Hes working wrong and maybe his prcos/damage are aslo bugged if kabam did not notice any of these bugs in their testing pre-realse.
    Kabam was so swift to fix Hela as she was producing crazy damage. Hopefuly they respond with the same swiftness in investigating Sentry as he is obivosuly bugged.
    I use sentry alot as he is my first rank 4 5*. I am not making these bugs up.

    @Kabam Miike so are you reading the feedback or just ignoring it. At least pass the feedback to the “

    Squeaky wheel gets the oil. This is true in all aspects of life for the most part. When people see their doctor and if they do not demand some kind of test or medicine to help them with what is wrong with them. I see this all the time.

    It wouldn't surprise me if he was bugged. I've mostly tested for damage and not when certain things triggered. With all the RNG already built into him I sort just let things happen or not. To be honest I've quit playing him just because he's of no use. I'll have to try using him so more. That might explain some things but who knows. We are just sort of hoping Kabam will do the right thing and fix him.
    How long was Quake not working as intended, a year?

    I've noticed a couple of these bugs as well. I was playing with a duped R3 5* Sentry in EQ and he somehow​ went from 45% health back to 90% health against a Hyperion after firing off SP2 and he wasn't in absolute strength mode. The fight was super laggy but even the health % don't lie, so he's definitely bugged.

    I've also noticed sometimes, the SP2 is unblockable and can crit for some serious damage without procing absolute strength.. Crit is good but SP2 been unblockable in 20 hits is well bugged.

    Very interesting post. Hopefully kabam can shed some light on this and maybe he'll be more useful.

    They took the phase that Sentry was one of the original champs in the game literal. Sentry is just a bland champ with nothing going for him like Colosus
  • Stagedear85Stagedear85 Posts: 771 ★★★
    i doubt Sentry will be Nerf as i thought about how Kabam works they usually release one weak champ alongside a good one, look at spidey and punnisher 2099 or doctor Oct and Green Gob, they've released 3 science champs MODOK, Sentry and Void i guess one had to be garbage and sux it had to be Sentry because i have a 4 star MODOK and hes to me Demi God and so i would say for Void, now Sentry is just Hot Garbage with Zero use just for Arena points to me hes worst than Carnage.

    He has already stated a few times that he wont be changed. How many times do you need him to state this?

    is a little tricky to find adm. posts, maybe a lot of people missed

    here is the link where mike state this

    http://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/42775/is-sentry-working-properly


    shc2tw3w0yii.png


    he should state here in the 'main thread' (my opnion)

    plus, his statment is a little misleading... he say 'and many have their niches' and lead us to belive the sentry has a ninche, wich is complete false, he dosent have any ninche in this game, But, who cares anyway, if this is the way kabam want to do things, so be it, will only hurt themself in the long run

    LOL! Wrong! They aren’t addressing squat beyond what we’ve seen already.
