The Sentinel is a subclass of medium fighter class ship in Everspace 2 that is intended to incentivize consumables & devices to alter their potency.

For the ship in Everspace, see Colonial Sentinel.

Adam initially pilots a tier I Sentinel at level 10 during The Wingman. After losing that ship, he then steals a Nemesis-B9 Sentinel from the Bloodstar at the start of Flying Blind which serves as his only ship for the first few post-tutorial missions.

Special[]

Induction: Primary weapons have their fire rate increased by up to 20% depending on current shield charge percentage.

Notes:[]

The effect strength scales proportionally to current shield charge, meaning 20% fire rate increase at fully charged shields, 10% fire rate increase at 50% shields, and so on.

Ultimate Ability (ULT)[]

Static Overload: Turns the ship's primary weapons into lightning guns, firing arcing electricity at enemies and everything around them.

Notes:[]

This functions similarly to the Lightning Gun from Everspace, but is significantly more powerful.
The damage of this weapon does not depend on the currently selected standard weapon.
Has unlimited firing energy for the duration, and an approximate max range of 1300m. Damage output rate is quite reasonable.

Passives[]

The following passive effects are currently available for Sentinels. A ship can only have one of the two exclusive passives.

20% reduced cooldowns for warfare devices
15% increased shield hitpoints.
Killing an enemy using Static Overload restores 10% of shield hitpoints.
Static Overload has a 10% chance per second to apply EMP to affected targets.
Instantly reset all support device cooldowns when shield depletes (once every 2 minutes).
Each kill reduces the cooldown of a random device by 1s.
Collecting an energy orb deploys an energy shield for 2s.
Using a consumable immediately triggers the shield to recharge.
While shields are at least 50% charged, gain corrosion immunity. [Exclusive]
While shields are fully charged, gain 20% reduced boost energy and weapon energy consumption. [Exclusive]

Tactical Analysis[]

A reasonably effective, adaptable ship. As this is the very first ship class you have access to, the Sentinel is the baseline to which all other ships are compared. It has a good baseline spread of damage output, toughness and speed, and while short-ranged its Ultimate is decently powerful. Other ship classes can certainly outperform it in certain areas, but it is a good baseline to start with.
