**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

How do you think the recent buff to Sentry will affect his viablity?

With the new buff, Kabam basically increased the chance to enter a state to 100% for most of his states, while increasing his steadfast approach state(heavy boost) to 60%. How do you think this will affect his viability in AW, AQ, questing, ROL, and LOL? Will the significant damage boost make him one of the top damage dealers, or is his damage when he enters a state still too low?

I wouldn't think so -- more so, there are are simply better options because while he is definitely improved, Sentry's damage doesn't scale like Star-Lord's mechanic.
You guys have the numbers for the R4/55 Sentry. I have him as a 4* 5/50, so obviously, that outclasses the damage output I could generate.
With a 5/50, I topped out around 11.2K on L1 with full Reality Warps. That's obviously decent. But that was max effort, nailing significant crits on all three hits. In other words: That was a rare shot. In my testing, you are more going to see around 5-7K on L1, and again, you will need to be stacking Reality Warps for that, not getting hit...there are characters whose damage is right there from the first strike, or have higher output over time, for something like Labyrinth or other endgame content.
Again: The character is much better than before. Actually fun to play now. But it's probably more that you can run him in Act 4 and the early part of Act 5, especially if you are skilled, and enjoy doing so, instead of not being able to even think of using it in that kind of content previously.
