How to Fix Sentry

in General Discussion
1. Each Reality Warp charge increases the chance for a state to trigger by 14%. This means consistent 100% state procs once at 5 charges - rewards build up time!

2. L1 fury chance changed to 100%. It's a 20% non stacking fury, no reason for it to fail.

3. L2 armor break chance changed to 100%. It's a low armor reduction no reason to make it fail.

4. Regen increased to 15% of base health. Too low currently to warrant saving up to an L3 and expending a reality Warp charge.

5. Optional - Add poison or incinerate immunity. This guy has the power of a million suns, I think his body can resist something!

There you go, Sentry would be a viable and rewarding hero.

    Still not enough imo

    I was also thinking that perhaps each Reality Warp charge could give a passive bonus as well, such as attack or maybe +5% power gain rate per charge, but I feel like Kabam wouldn't do that for fear of making him too good. What else would you add?

    I think this would be a good way to make the character viable in the ways the devs wanted him to be without making him too strong.

    I think they worried about making Sentry too OP (because in all reality he should be) and made him too weak instead

    They could have him stack 10 reality warps and he’d still suck with that 30% proc chance.

    I think he means like 1 reality warp + 30% =44%. In mcoc there are 2 tipes of % increase theres “Increase by 15%” which would take the existing chance and multiply it by 15%. Then there’s “Gain +15% chance” which takes the existing chance and adds 15% (Such as Quake and HEs ability accuracy synergy)

    Aaaand I read this wrong. I read this and it registered as “He’d gain next to no chance from the charges” sorry just completely ignore my last post.
    ...But then it’d take a combo of 360 hits to get that damage

    Kabam will change nothing. They hear our plea to fix this champion while laughing.

    Don't care that much about the regen. I would suggest making him keep the buff effects from a stage he enters not until he reaches the next stage via the combo meter but when the BUFF EFFECTS for that new stage are activated. For example keep the bonus things from overpowering light not untill he enters stedfast approach but untill he gains the buff effects of another state. Also a 4% increase of attack for every reality warp would be good, for a maximum of 20% increase at 5 reality warps.

    That's a great idea as well, that way when you DO manage to proc a state at least you could use the state bonus for longer if the next one didn't proc.

    Sentry is doing a great job at making my Kamala Kahn look good.

    Here’s how you fix him:

    Have someone competent test the heroes before they are released.
