Good changes. I think the turret needs even more "ooomph", but I can appreciate the gradual approach.

Thanks, but what about guns? Locust, Eagle, Crusader, Viper, Incisor - all of them?

Cool! I've just taken to playing a Batarian Sentinal. I like those changes. 
Edit: This is a good thing, right?
Batarian Sentinel
- Starting encumbrance capacity increased from 30% to 45%
It means that he can handle more weight, which means better cooldown times, no?

This time, only classes/powers in dire need for buffing.

Nice changes overall.
Though I still don't think we'll see too many people detonating Tech Armour even with the damage buff, especially now that the DR is 10% higher.

Nice TA buffs though, even though I don't think it needed it.

Tech armor changes finally bring the power to where it should have been since day 1. Quarian Turret changes don't really do anything - although it obviously needs a buff, this isn't nearly far enough. Batarian Sentinel changes are pretty well spot on.

A buff for tech armor? I want to try it like right now. The increase of DR makes it kinda broken now.

Tech Armor was already appealing. You get a free AoE stagger that damages enemies through walls.

Sentry Turret Power
- Base turret damage increased from 30 to 40
- Evolution 5 rocket damage increased from 250 to 300 --
I am confused by this I thought sentry turret had flames and the combat drone had the rockets?

I do think KS is the best character to use detonation quite often given it is a tank. TS can use it too.

Well, some people still detonate it, though I would say you're in the minority of people who do =P
Most people don't feel it's worth giving up a 100% increase in effective health/shields while that close to the enemy. Some people can make the detonation work, but nobody can really say you aren't giving up a ton of defense while in CQC to do it, which is kind of counter productive to what Tech Armour is supposed to be about.

Agree with this 100%. I'm psyched for my Sentinels, but the Sentry Turret buff is meaningless. The issue isn't that the rockets don't do quite enough damage. The issue is they fire at walls, and their ROF is embarassing. Easy fix would have been to decrease their damage subsantially, but increase their fire rate a lot. The only buff that would have done a lot is a shield buff. Other than that, the Sentry Turret isn't so much under powered as it is bugged/broken.
