ZombieCatSD Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I am being dead serious here, I have tried a bunch of alts, even gotten a couple almost to 30 (Gunslinger and Vanguard) but it all comes back to the only class I really gel with is the sentinel. Having hit 50, there is only so much I can do because I don't PvP. Not ragging on PvP it is just not my thing. Yes, I do my dailies and hard modes with my guild on occasion but that does not give me a lot of play time. So what am I asking? For all the other sentinels out there which classes do you find as enjoyable and challenging to play? I know I could make a Marauder and explore that for the story but I like interacting with my guild so want to stay Republic. Still it is an option I am considering along with making another sentinel just so I can enjoy PvE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your guild mates can let you know that way, when they want to run something. Leveling a second sentinel sounds boring , you've already seen the story once.

ZombieCatSD Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 You know I totally forgot about using vent to keep in touch with my guild. Thanks Yeah leveling another sent would not be the greatest thing because I have already done the story but I am finding that is the same for any Republic toon I level since the class story is a small part of all the story I have to go through.

JsunJay Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Have you tried a shadow? They seem like they could be fun to play. I do agree though Sentinels are crazy fun. My main is actually a Seer Sage and I get bored on him so I created a sent to try it out and it is hella fun. I do want to try shadow though eventually they seem like they could be fun and annoying to people in pvp as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthbarbarous Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I have an assassin, a sniper, and a sentinel. I have tried all the classes to a point but these 3 are the ones I have spent the time to level because i found them the most fun. My sniper and assassin are level 50, my sentinel is only level 24 atm (currently leveling). I really enjoy the playstyle of all 3 of these classes and find them very fun to play. You already have a GS so you know what that is like so I guess i would suggest the assassin/shadow, even try it tank spec as it still does pretty decent dmg.

iCanUseTheForce Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I recommend either Marauder (for same class but new story, companions, and quests planets) or Assassin/Shadow. I have a Jedi Conselor and I'm not a fan of the companions, but the story is nice. Like a galactic diplomat. Either way, it seems you want to wield a lightsaber and be a bamf. So stick with Force-users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZombieCatSD Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 I do have a shadow right that is only lvl 15. I am trying to like it but finding the combat a bit clunky. I know it is more than likely me and not the class so I haven't given up hope on it. Thanks everyone for the suggestions so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caelc Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I know how you feel. Sentinel is a very "busy" class. You are constantly hitting abilities and you use so many of them. Very fast paces. I also have been leveling kinetic shadow and its not bad, it is a good second republic job because since I am leveling in more or less the same areas as before, I can sneak around and do objectives faster. It can get a bit more hectic once you get some of your higher abilities, before that it can be tough. I want to try sith side, was going to level a sorcerer but man I die a lot before level 10 on elite mobs. Maybe I should level a maruder. Now that I read in 1.2 you can send mail from republic to sith (or at least thats how I read it) I want to cover more crafts. Have artifice and its gathering skills maxed which was a godsend for sentinel being always prepared. Got bio almost maxed on shadow, I need someone to make the mods and armor plates, then an alt for slicing for crew mission quests for the harder to gather items.

Jaerion Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I started with shadow. It's great for group stuff, especially, but the story is real hit/miss for some players. If you like the always-busy aspect of being a Sentinel, I'd recommend vanguard. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ainianu Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I do have a shadow right that is only lvl 15. I am trying to like it but finding the combat a bit clunky. I know it is more than likely me and not the class so I haven't given up hope on it. Thanks everyone for the suggestions so far. I couldnt find shadow enjoyable either, same clunky combat and lacking leap really did it for me. It really comes down to... do you want damage dealer again? or a different role? I play all 8 advanced classes and the ones i enjoy most are roughly in order... Sentinel > Guardian(Tank) > Sage(Healer) > Commando(Grav Spammer) > Gunslinger > Vanguard(Tank) > Scoundrel(DPS) > Shadow(Tank) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
