Personally still not perfect against Sentineloids, but better. We start at 5200 Prestige on Map 5. 9000 by day 5. So, may be a different story then.
I honestly thought my R3 Five star unduped Hyperion would be my go to.
But so far, my best luck has been with R5 Four Star Thor.
Wanna hear ur success or failure stories with the Sentineloids. Hopefully they are easier for everyone this week.

Joke aside, this week (starting my 1st AQ in a new merged alliance, after loosing 10 veteran active members last week due to AQ related reasons), I'm taking Mystic Paths in Map 5 (including the poison path), so far day 1 is doing well, but no where close to the symbiote experience. Am I begin to enjoy it? H3ll no!
I expect to have my butt kicked starting Day 4 and onwards.
Brought my 5/50 morning star this round. She shreds sentinels at 5 souls.
However when this Aggressive Meter is set low, the opposite happens and fights actually become more difficult/annoying. These are evidenced by low streak arena fights (1-15), low-level questing/catalysts quests, and most notably Symboids in AQ. When the Aggressive Meter is set low, you can't predictably parry or intercept the opponent because they often pause inbetween attacks. They are less likely to dash into you as well to parry. The timing is much different than the regular aggressive fights we are used to. Before Sentinels were in AQ, the previous Symboids have always been low-AI or non-aggressive compared to other fights. I was always on my toes fighting Symboids because I never knew if they were going to pause for a brief moment, messing with my timing.
Once you understand how to fight the less-aggressive AI, then you should have an easier time with Sentinels in AQ. They tend to stand with there with no block up often. Never dash into an opponent who is standing there with the block down (this goes for all opponenets because the AI is programmed to intercept you). Wait until they are blocking to dash into them, then counter-parry. I don't think Kabam has any interest in modyfing the low-level AI at this point. But my suggestion to alleviating the problem players are having with AQ Sentinels is to increase their aggressiveness just a tad, up to par with other non-symboids in AQ.
