RakeHoxven Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 This is a newb question but I don't get the difference. Guardians get to wear heavy armor and be a tank and they share the same focus tree so what are Sentinel focus tree users better at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepilk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Guardians get a completly different skillset of special abilities as they level, so even though the skill tree is the same, their base specials are totally different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. So focus Sentinels do more dps than Guardian Sentinels I assume? Edited January 27, 2012 by RakeHoxven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flowqz Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 guardians get +30%dmg on force sweep while we get reduced focus cost... sounds balanced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notensack Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) That we do less damage than them and have longer ability delays. Edited January 27, 2012 by Notensack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaaat Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 CD is the same -6s with all talents however Guardian's do more damage due to a 30% more damage talent and the ability to add sunder armor on enemy targets. While Sentinels have cheaper Sweep (only costs 1 focus) and better group utility (Transcedence can be up at all time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Sentinels have cheaper Sweep (only costs 1 focus) and better group utility (Transcedence can be up at all time) its actually weird as transcendence is defensive, and our early tier form buff increases damage reduction by more. While the guardian can get a 6% higher dmg bonus from shi cho form and another 6% strength, ontop of the extra 30% damage from sweep. So their sweeps will do way more damage than ours with all those combined. While we take slightly less damage and then can constantly buff the group to take less damage.
