I was just curious what everyone thought was the best way to max out a Batarian Sentinel.  My sentinel class is already at Level 20, so all I need is the advice of people who have already tried the class.  I'm open to support or attack roles, so all points of view are appreciated.

[Battlepope190]

Was wondering about this as well; I can't seem to build one I like and that is effective at...anything, lol.

[TheRealDingo]

Is it even possible to make the class good?

Skip Shockwave entirely, spam Net, take a strong sniper like the Kishock and blast the immobile enemies in the face. Profit.

[DayusMakhina]

Skip Shockwave? I use lifting shockwave on it more than I do the net, is far more reliable to hit and just leaves targets floating in the air for me to gun down.

I'd say if anything to skip Blade Armor.

I generally go for a support role with my sentinel. I've been experiemting but I generally try to max out Submission Net and Shockwave. With the recent cooldown reduction on Submission net hopefully I can detonate it now. Anyway I find that the sentinel is best used for netting powerful enemies so they can easily be tech bursted by your teamates and netting enemies like phantoms and mauraders will really help your team out as well.

Shockwave is worth it just because if you max the range and radius it can be useful for detonating teamates's bitocs and just knocking back enemies that are getting to close, it works really well on levels like glacier where there alot of hallways.

As for blade armor, I just ignore it and put all my points into fitness and the batarian class skill. Passive are better than an active that hurts cooldown times.

All in all, Batarian is best doing a support role, with good teamates you can really help control the battefield. Just dont expect the top score, not that that really matters anyway.

The general consensus seems to be that there is not general consensus. You can make him tanky/a melee fighter with Fitness, Blade Armor, and Net, or a lot of people tend to make him more glass like with power and weapon spam, either ignoring Fitness or Blade Armor and maxing his powers for tech bursts with Shockwave and Net spam, with the additional bonus of decent weapon damage.

The recent change to the net made them a bit more viable. If you have a fast CD and the longer incap evolution, you can hold down two targets at a time I believe. (Not both in nets at the same time, the other will just fall over)

How did you get that "Current Unlock Progress" chart, and where can I get one of my own?

How do you take away the one point in blade armour?

[megabeast37215]

He can work ok with a bunch of Reavers... since shockwave is the best detonator in the game. The net/snipe thing has already been brought up...

He is arguably the worst character in the game.

Use a respec card. You can have up to three at a time. You can get them in veteran packs or spector packs.

Put on Harrier, max Shockwave and you will be rocking on gold. I maxed everything and left the net empty. With maxed armor for damage just stand infront of brutes and let them hit you and see their health drop like crazy

Edit:
A nice suggestion for Batarian Sentinel

Blade Armor - AAA
Shockwave - BBA
Submission net - AA (rank 5)
Batarian Enforcer - ABB
Fitness - Rank 3

Weapon suggestion: Talon +++ , Carnifex ++, Phalanx +
Prihana if you're a born cheater

Hatesurfing is all you'll ever need. Guns? What guns? You have no need for guns, you're a goddamn BATARIAN.

I'm trying something at the moment.
I'm level 18 with a Talon VIII, but I don't know where to put my points.

Blade Armor Rank 5 -> Rank 6 hesitation on 30% less penalty or 10% dmg reduc
Shockwave Rank 4 - 2.60m , I'm hesitating on probably going Range + Lifting effect
Sub Net Rank 5 and I'll leave it like that
Batarian Enforcer - ABB
Fitness Rank 0 I don`t know yet...

*** Subnet and Shock are 2.55 second cooldown before the 50% Penalty

Shockwave doesn`t work at times, fully shielded enemies are immune, and lag makes it not respond at times.

I tried to play with Acolyte(shockwave combo) but you need a very good and strong mouse that is precise. It releases randomly with old mouses or average ones.

If you take the 30% CD reduction on Blade Armor then your CDs with it active will be 3.06s, which is plenty short enough since he isn't a power spam character in the same way that an engineer, adept, or human sentinel is. Without the CD reduction your CDs with Blade Armor active are ~3.83 seconds.

Liftng is pretty worthless on Shockwave, IMO.

I've still not got it to work for me, yet, but apparently the best application of a Batarian Sentinel is to keep enemies from advancing. Shockwave staggers, shunts them back; Submission Net holds them in place, so you can keep enemies at a safe distance while you hack, or escort a drone, or hold a camp.

Stressing the word "apparently." I've not got it to work for me, yet.... but try something based around that! It's a niche.

[BlackDahlia424]

Blade Armor is 100% useless. Don't take it at all. Even if you take it for damage reduction, you get better results from simply maxing your fitness.

Absestos, I just edited my suggestion, You'd go Shockwave Rank 6 Cooldown Reduc instead of Lifting ?

Tell me cause I never tried Lifting.

I updated my suggestion a bit higher.

I`ll try it out.

Blade Armor does more than just give your DR though and there's no reason you can't put points in BA and Fitness. If you're just going to sit back and spam powers, then leaving off BA makes sense. If you prefer getting up close and personal then you probably want to put points in BA. Take BA to rank 6 and Fitness to Rank 4 and you aren't missing a really significant amount of health/shields while you gain the 100% melee damage return and a 25% boost to melee damage.

Skip Blade Armor. Max cooldown on Shockwave to spam for crowd control.

Submission net when electrified also works great for crowd control by continually shocking enemies in the surronding area.

0/6/6/6/6.

Shockwave(6): Damage, Reach or Detonate(playing with biotics), and Recharge Speed

Submission Net(6): Incapacitate, Damage/Slow, Electric Field

Enforcer(6): Power, Power, Weapon

Fitness(6): All Shields

Yes, I take the CD reduction on Shockwave. I've tried lifting and it isn't that useful. SW is already a decent crowd control power without lifting 1 or 2 weak guys into the air for a couple of seconds.

You can make any class good enough for Gold if you have the manifest to back it up. You have the almighty Claymore X so I would go with that. Be sure to reload cancel by pressing back and roll and with Net/Shockwave when appropriate.

Throwing the net on the ground as a trap is often better than targeting since enemies dodge it so well. 
 Shockwave over net if you have a biotic partner.  I would spec for melee since it can be useful against Phantoms and neither Shockwave or Net is that great.

Um.. Batarian can't roll.

Still, not like reload cancelling is particularly difficult. For weight reasons the Talon is probably a better choice on the BatSent. I don't think he wants to murder his CDs.

I like to use it in one general location, I let the enemies come to me and repel them with shockwave or hold back with submission net, I think with a Piranha for damage to take the enemies that get close down and if one slips past that melee works. Not my favorite but fun, I think I use a 66644
