Noobishlord Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So after taking a break from the game for a while, I finally came back, and decided to start fresh. So I made a Jedi Knight, and thought it through. Rather than go the normal Guardian/Juggernaut route that I have for all previous Melee Force classes, I decided to go down the Sentinel path this time. I am not regretting it. As a Guardian, I leaped into combat, and started a dance, a very slow dance, where I build up focus and almost spend it just as fast. It was beautiful, in its own way, but slow. Sure, I always had the health to spare, but after a while, I just started to zone out in combat. Leap, burst, focus build, burst, focus build, burst... As a Sentinel, I feel like a wrecking ball. Sure, a lot more fragile, but that doesn't bother me. I leap in, smash 'em with a focus builder once, then proceed to bash things down, usually killing before I have to worry about building up focus again, and by that time, my big focus builder is usually off cooldown, and I proceed to beat down the next poor sod that dared to cross my blades. Its aggression is beautiful, and oddly satisfying. Now to play again tomorrow so I can learn Juyo and leave Shi-cho behind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChifferElite Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Sentinel is my one and only character, im currently level 47 and haven't looked back. I do a hell of a lot of damage, especially in warzones and learnt to optimize my destruction :-D trouble with that is in always broke because I always want more powerful mods. Who needs a level 2 speeder though :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobishlord Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Yeah, keeping two weapons up-to-date can be expensive... Which is exactly why I took up Artifice on this character. That's at least a couple less areas I have to pay to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planet_J Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Juyo form eh? Watchman is an awesome spec...wait til you get cauterize and overload saber...get your 30 stacks of centering...hit your burns then pop Zen and watch their bar melt while yours rises...I love my watchman.

Noobishlord Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'll admit, I was tempted to go with Combat and grab Ataru, but something was draggin' me towards the Watchman spec and the chaotic Juyo form. Still have no idea what, but I'm not regretting it in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavu Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I started as a Gunslinger but when my guild at the time, mostly made up of ppl I know , decided to roll IMP I rolled a Mara.... AND LOVED IT! but after everyone left the game the light side called to me once again. I decided to roll a trooper to be my healer , mostly because they remind me so much of the medic class in TF2 , but always missed my twin blades of **** so am now currently leveling a Sent and loving it. I still love playing my trooper and run HM's and OPS whenever possible but am thoroughly enjoying my Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanja Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Yeah, I love my Sent (Watchman spec in Juyo). The ranged DPS of a Commando has its charms as well, but there are sooooo many things to love about Watchman. It's not just the joy of the big ticket Leap-Overload Saber-Sow Death and Destruction train. There's the 0m leap, the various interrupts, the auto-crits with self-heal, the Inspiration buff for your whole raiding party, etc. Oh, and the first time you go cutting through a mob, leaving standing targets to die from your burns while you leap onto the next target, is delicious...uhhhhmm...we are light side though, right?

SovereignConvict Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Even before 1.2, when Sentinels just weren't good enough to compete against the ever rising tides of Sorcerers, they were still fun to play. Combat and Focus are both really fun, but Watchman stole my heart and won't give it back. Then again, I never ask for it back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
