I have been mostly running Anders since day one and at some point I started using Kodiaks with Sentinel Synergy and the passive ability that spawns sentinels per Kodiak or Siege Turret. The description even says that it spawns per Kodiak and Siege Turret so why I am being sent messages on Xbox Live for “cheating” or “glitching”.
Sentinel Beacon: Kodiak and Siege turret attacks now summon friendly Aggressor Sentinels. (Triple checked to make sure it is accurate with description in-game)
The description clearly says that the attack is what summons Aggressor Sentinels so each Kodiak or Siege turret shell will summon one set of sentinels.
I figure 6 Kodiaks constantly shelling will summon up to 6 sets of Aggressor Sentinels onto the map.
Am I reading the description right or is this actually a glitch? If it is, I can’t understand how it would have gotten through testing as this happens every time regardless of what I do.
I will also add that in one game where I got reported and spammed expletives for using Sentinels, my team and I were rushed by Jackrabbits and Grunts, we held off long enough for me to get Kodiaks out to defend and eventually I was using an all Kodiak army to defend us. They each summoned Aggressor Sentinels so my team was able to hold out a good defense long enough until all of us had built up some units to counter and win.
those anders sentinels are op… i am a “kind of” anders main but if they remove those sentinels from anders she will become like isabel… Useless
It isn’t cheating (obviously) but it is widely considered a unfair strategy. So that is why people are calling you a cheater, even though there is nothing wrong with what you’re doing

Yeah, I am thinking they might nerf Sentinel Beacon at some point. I remember they nerfed Anders from Halo Wars 1 due to her Gremlins and faster/cheaper research being considered to OP back then too.
Since the game came out, two of Anders strategies have been called unfair, but if you remove or nerf them what will she have left? She can’t call airstrikes, her super unit is almost useless, she offers no buffs to any units, passive research isn’t really an advantage unless you rush hornets, and the rest of her perks require at least 2 leader points before being useful (Protector Sentinels need Sentinel Synergy to be any good).

I don’t see how having to set up Kodiaks, draw intial line of sight and then defend against counter attacks on the kodiaks is OP. The sentinals aren’t even that damaging inless they’re swarmed…in which case why did you let OP build six kodiaks worth 3k blue and not counter?
You aren’t a cheater. What’s disappointing to me is seeing one of the top teams in team war (not going to name any names) abusing known glitches in their games. Incredibly frustrating and disappointing that top caliber players feel the need to abuse things like scout mines and double leader points.
But using a leader of your choice doesn’t make you a cheater.

I personally like Isabel the most out of the UNSC leader (excluding forge). Her powers fit my play style, but hey, everyone’s entitled to an opinion.
i dont mind the original sentinals the just need less dps n speed, but the one that spawns the ark sentinals is ridiculous
