I am about 8 hours into a Sentinel playthrough. It's a great class, don't get me wrong, but I am not having as much fun as I was with Adept.

My question is for those who have played both Sentinel and Infiltrator.

Which class did you enjoy more (not which is most powerful) and tell me why you prefer that one over the other.

I would really appreciate your input.

Playthrough 1 was Sentinel, playthrough 2 Infiltrator. I'd say, if you take great satisfaction out of headshots, like I do, the infiltrator is great. However, I really needed to be a sentinel my first time through while trying to figure out how the game works. Since you've already done that, then you may like infiltrator more. Its very different than a caster class.

I preferred the Infiltrator myself. There's nothing like the satisfaction of taking down an enemy that hasn't even seen you, and cloak just makes them seem helpless.



Plus, the Widow is about as large as some heavy weapons. Carrying something of that size as your main weapon is pretty badass, IMO.

Hm...I may just start an Infiltrator tonight. If I can make it through the opening again.



Thanks.

My first was The infiltrator.



im on one with the sentinel.



Really they're both fun, its awesome sniping the harbinger, and cloaking sneaking up on an eclipse vanguard elbowing them and then blind firing they're ass(try it high risk high gain).



The sentinel has some good abilities and when your fighting the harbinger if your using your tech armor and deplete his barrier with biotics he says the awesome line"our powers are equal" then starts running away.



I'd have to say in the game the sentinel would be the most fun, but if this ever gets an rp i decide to join ill be an infiltrator

[ChaoticBroth]

Infiltrator kinda spoiled me, though. Nonetheless, it's a good way to learn how to use cover. Teaches you how to make the most out of every shot, too.

My very first Character on ME1 was infiltrator and he was also the first on ME2 as well. While i do not take satisfaction out of headshots, i really like the playstyle as Infiltrator once you head the 2nd 3rd of the Game. The 1/3 of the game is just crap as Infiltrator if you don't know the game at all. If you know which missions to take first in order to get upgraded weapons and such its much more fun. [edit:] Oh, and yes... learning to use cover and doing headshots is essential for the Infiltrator class in my opion.[/edit]

I mean on my first playthrough i kind of did Tali's Mission and Drells one pretty much at the lastest possibility.. leaving me quite in a pinch. I also skilled a lot of useless crap, not knowing what was really useful and such. Ammo is a huge downer if you run around with a 10 Shot Sniper rifle, the heavy Pistol runs out of ammo to fast as well.. and then your stuck with the first SMG which just doesn't work on a distance you are used to as Infiltrator from ME1.

But once you got the better SMG and that thing is able to hit stuff in a distance (if you fire bursts only) and the Widow or the Viper Sniperrifle... then the game as Infiltrator really picks up a pace and its great fun. Before that... well.. i considered a couple times if i shouldn't pick some other class to start. In the End i was glad i didn't

The Sentinel on the other hand... i don't know.. i kind of don't like him at all. Even though he becomes more fun once you picked up Assaultrifle Spec. At least in my opinion. Though he is still not as good as the Infiltrator (funwise) when it comes to Mid and Endgame.

But my most favorit class so far is the Adept.. even on the highest difficulty. I love playing with Signularity, Warp and Shockwave. Will have to test engineer next.

When does the sentinel get the assaultrifle spec

[AnotherDeadBard]

theRaynmanFrost: on the mission where you go to the disabled collector ship, you can pick up a different weapon proficiency. Not too far into the game.

[TheRaynmanFrost]

thank you

To add to that a little...

You get an upgrade for either Assault rifle, Sniperrifle or Shotgun. If you do not possess the proficiency and you select assault rifle you can use them. If you have Assault rifle proficiency you will get to choose a special gun.

That works for Infiltrator as well. You get to choose to pick up Assault or Shotgun prof or the Widowmaker Sniperrifle.

sentinal, on horizon it was alot easier to handle scions,collecter etc than the infiltrator mostly cause i could use tech armor among other abilities and was great on every armor type its also really fun:)

[mosor]

I like the assault sentinel a lot. It's really fun if played very aggressively.

Infiltrator

Widow > Tech Armor

[ForGreatJustice]

I've played both extensively, and they vary significantly in tactics/strategy. If you have a FPS bone in you, as well as a steady hand for consistent hs, then you might like the infiltrator. Powers do factor in though since ammo is the biggest concern. Incinerate helps set up one-shot kills on armored foes, yet once you have the Widow you'll be able to one-hs-kill most enemies even without incinerate. Factor in cloak and appropriate ammo power, you can kill most things fast without using powers.



However if you do have a steady mouse hand, try specing sniper rifles with the Sentinel, which is how I like to play the class. All the tech/biotics to handle anything, plus added range with a mantis/viper (depending on the mission), pretty unstoppable especially if you couple with an ammo power.

I wish I was Legion. Sentinel-Engineer-Infiltrator.

[Epantiras]

I like going around as an Infiltrator and killing enemies with headshots, but I had more fun during my Sentinel playthrough. The Tech Armor is awesome and the more tech/biotic powers I have at my disposal, the better.

[Kronner]

Sentinel is more fun, for me. I much prefer the Assault Sentinel with shotgun to a caster Sentinel. It is actually my second most favourite class, behind Vanguard.

Infiltrator is fun to play too, but feels like Soldier lite to me.

CQC (shotgun) infiltrator > sentinel > sniper infiltrator



in terms of fun. really, though, most of the classes are fun to play once you figure out a good way to use them.

Personally I think a CQC assault senitnel (Shotgun) kicks bigger ass than a CQC infiltrator. Assault armor is a killer close range.

[RGFrog]

Long range Sentinel. Get the sniper prof. at collector ship and run with the viper. Cast a power and auto snipe while it flies
