Oh and also, I think one pre-battle, manually-activated "mode" (Tech Armor) is enough so I'm not too butthurt about losing Amp. Guess we'll see. I wonder what the evolutions will entail.

As of the current itteration there is bonuses to melee attacks present on both the tech armour evolution AND the fitness evolution. Throw in melee bonuses from armour parts and it looks like a CQC spec sentinel can really do some damage using their omni blades. That looks to be the big new gimmick for the class

Edit: I just noticed the pic where Liara has lift orb. Is this the same power as lift grenade?

It's an outdated screen, now Liara has Warp ammo instead

LOL, that means we've lost the only Adept squadmate. Liara a Vanguard, who'd have expected that? Maybe the Shadow Broker business made here more aggressive ... who knows?

Yeah and that's super awesome IMO. I like the idea of Sentinels as a safer version of the ol' high risk high reward class, with more of a CC focus than the Vanguard's damage focus.

As unclear as I was though, I actually meant that I wonder what the Lift Grenade's evolutions will be. Any word on those yet?

Also any word on the Infiltrator's new exclusive? Having been in Skyrim mode I'm not up to date here lol. They change/reveal any heavy melee animations too?

Hmm I doubt the lift grenade will be detonated by warp. One of the perks to being an Adept is performing your own unassisted warp-bombs.

Warp will detonate Lift Grenade, and vice versa. We have way more powers that can create combos this time around.

Ehh, not really - Jack had Warp Ammo in ME2 and I'd hardly call her as being in the Vanguard class (although admitedly, she did have a shotgun, lol).

Sweeeet. Thanks for the confirmation there, Eric. Anything you can share on the comboability between Tech and Biotic powers this time around? Shattering enemies with a Cryo-blast/Throw combo was epic in ME2; I'm really hoping these new Lift Grenades will get in the mix somehow too. Watching a bunch of frozen enemies suspended 50 feet in the air all fall and shatter simultaneously would def sell me on Sentinels being my official favorite class.

[Eric Fagnan]

I can say we've added new power combos and you will be able to combine tech, biotic, and combat powers to create combos.

Well, that and one of her passive evolutions was "Primal Vanguard".

[Eric Fagnan]

I see that some people are worried about the overlap between Adept and Sentinel, and I can assure everyone that they have very distinct play-styles.

Tech Armor works a little differently in ME3. When it's on, it gives you lots of damage protection but slows down your power cooldowns, but it stays on as long as you want until you turn it off.

Also, Lift Grenade is a resource-based power (uses grenades) and has no cooldown. It gives the Sentinel some extra offensive power when things get rough.

[LGTX]

Thanks Eric! Could you elaborate on the 'deactivation' of the tech armor? Is it the remote detonator, or can we actually turn it off?

[Eric Fagnan]

You just use the power again to turn it off, and detonate the tech explosion like in ME2.

Technically, ammo powers are combat powers. Those who have both biotic and combat powers are considered Vanguards. But I was wrong. Samara and Morinth are true biotic specialists.

Sweet. I always missed that ability in ME2.

[BatmanPWNS]

I seriously think Jack is a Vanguard. I mean she has an ammo power, she has a shotgun, her 2 biotic powers are the one's the Vanguard class has and one of her upgrade is Primal Vanguard. Then again she also has Primal Adept. But still I believe she is a vanguard.

[No Snakes Alive]

Thanks for all the info, Eric.

I, for one, am hyped.

Yeah, exactly, that's why Jack was so terrible in maintaining the biotic bubble and got one of the squad killed during the Suicide Missi.... oh, wait....

But will shields and armor block biotics again? By the time you could use kinetic powers in ME2 the enemy was almost dead anyway.

On Insanity the enemy has plenty of health to rag doll them a bit, before finishing them off. My adept run was pretty fun, once I got the a hang of it 



And I'm diggin' how the Sentinel is gonna work in ME3.

It's pretty much if you put the power Pull into a grenade.

So its a Biotic Pull when used with Warp detonates like crazy?

Sick! Although how does a Biotic power become resource based? Isnt that going against Biotic theory and all that?

[Someone With Mass]

Not really. It's just mass effect fields, after all.

do you mean combos like pull + throw or singularity + warp? or combing abilities as the sentinel like throw and cryo blast into one cryo-throw? or do you mean soldier squademates will have abilities that can be comboed with adept shepard?
