Does anybody even use the Sentinel Beam

Last time I saw it used was around the update. What do y’all think about it? It needs a buff? I think so and I heard it works pretty well against a Wasp, but not much use for it in the end…

Kinda disappointed, as I personally wanted it to at least be as strong as the Focus Rifle which didn’t take too long to kill when not compared to a Sniper and ranged, but this Sentinel is just a bit too weak.

Ive used it in WZFF against Phaetons and its has been effective for me. I have also been using it to blow the shield protecting the grunt Goblins due to its sustained beam.

I do wish there was an “Aggressor” and “Onyx” Sentinel Beam. The latter is one of the most powerful in the series.

I used it once and i’m never touching it again. Hopefully some good variants come in the future

I don’t personally use it, but an extremely effective use for it is if you want to die in super fiesta.

I had the same idea. I’ve written short descriptions for them but I don’t really want to go looking for them right now…

I use it, but only rarely. It’s decent against vehicles, but otherwise, it’s pretty mediocre.

Well time to start selling them all, I’m sure they won’t be missed even though I’m drawn to sustained laser beam weapons, just not worth it.

I use it when I spawn with it in Super Fiesta. At least until I can pick up something better.

It’s pretty effective if you keep the beam on the enemy’s body the WHOLE time. That way they have no way out besides trying to thruster out of it or get away

I never spawn one in, but I find it interesting to use in a fiesta game, probably because I never really get to use it , lol

Same. I rarely spawn these in, sometimes just to mix things up when it’s not a tight game, but it seems more like a REQ 3 weapon than what it is now. Hopefully it gets some good variants though…

Yeah I hope they bring some powerful beams into the game. Would be sick if they brought in a rainbow beam just for fun.

It feels really underpowered right now. I hope to see a buff that makes it stand a chance against BRs and DMRs

We may see more variants of the sentinel beam and people may actually start using more effectively. But not the regular sentinel beam cause it’s weak as -Yoink- just like it always has been.

Well I don’t really play halo 5 much now so i’ve only used it like 3 times, i think its about the same level as it was in halo 3, pretty weak and needs to be buffed slightly.

I actually managed a couple kills with it last night, good ol super fiesta, making me use weapons I normally wouldn’t.

I went up against 6 guys from a Spartan company in Warzone Assault that had guys reqing the sentinel beam who then passed them off to teammates reqing in damage boosts. They were skilled players and were brutally effective with them.

Otherwise they’re pretty weak.

I used it last night in my first game back to try it out. I got a couple kills with it so I didn’t have an issue with it, but obviously I’d have to use it more to get an overall impression.

Ha!!! Truth! I would rather get a plain suppressor or bolt shot than a sentinel beam in fiesta. The thing is in need of a serious buff.

Meh. Too weak imo. H2BR has a faster TTK I think
