slicshuter Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I currently have a Wrym which I think is ok, but it doesn't really do that much (unless I just never notice) and I think it looks really ugly too. Right now, I'm thinking of getting a shade, even though I don't really play stealth roles apart from occasionally killing a few enemies in a mission for fun, but it looks really good and the invisibility looks useful too. So basically, should I keep my Wrym or get a different sentinel? At the moment, I mainly run and gun as Nova so I want to know if the Shade can still deal a lot of damage, compared with the others. What Sentinel do you use? I need opinions before I spend 100,000 credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angius Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Shade for stealthy playDethcube for DETH AND DESTRUCTION Shade is useless if you don't play stealthy. It'll shoot from his funny little pistol only when you'll get hit.Dethcube will sometimes kill enemies faster, than you.

Drakonnan180 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Dethcube! it can actually do quite a lot of dmg, maxed mine and if i go to low level areas it'll kill enemies before i get time to shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xinoxlx Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Do you want stealth? Pick shade. Do you want damage? Pick dethcube. Wyrm used to be for damage, but dethcube is superior for that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris9428 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Yeah, if you want to kill everything around you, pick Dethcube. If you prefer going invisible everytime an enemy is around you, get Shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAWGUNITALPHA Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Wyrm, get wyrm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALL.CAPS.GUY Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) i started with wyrm since i don't play stealth at all. i've since gotten dethcube. superior to wyrm, plus it has the vaporize skill, which when an enemy gets too close, insta kill. (does have cd time ofc) edit: i would suggest getting the shade at some point in the future to level (along with it's wep) just for personal mastery. if i'm not mistaken, correct me if i am, u would get mastery for both the sentinel and it's wep.

slicshuter Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 Wyrm, get wyrm. But it's...SO UGLY, why does it wriggle and convulse like a slug in salt? It's creepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NalkorRN Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I wish I could wield Dethcube. Just grab the cute little cube and hold him in front of me, and whenever I did so, his gun would start using the effects from the mods on my secondary.

Angius Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) If you like wyrm, but don't like how he looks, pick Dethcube. Simple. Edited July 20, 2013 by Angius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill_Gates Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Shade is a good option not only for stealth. It is good when you are getting swarmed by enemies who are knocking you down. Before you take too much damage, it will stealth you and the enemies will back off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PettiTheYeti Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Shade > Shade > Shade > Shade > Shade > Cube > Bologna Sandwich > Wyrm. Shade doesn't give a whole lot of DPS backup, but it always seems to cloak me at the perfect times. Even in the thick of battle, when it cloaks me, I'm relieved because I have time to reload, charge shields, move a little bit to a new angle, or whatever else. The breathing room it affords is great.

It kinda grosses out the grineer and corpus. Don't let it near infested though, its like a mating dance to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey1779 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Dethcube, there is no other Sentinel. I solo Corpus Endless Defense to wave 25 with nothing but Snow Globe + Dethcube, 52k+ xp 0 kills too funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BentDownFork Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Wyrm is best for stealth and overall dps. Honestly, it needs a nerf. But until then, get the op Wyrm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slicshuter Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 K. Just started making Dethcube. I can still make the Shade another time anyway. Quick question: It says I require 2 open slots when I build it. What slots is it referring to? The Sentinel ones? Does that mean I just store away my Wrym before i claim then?

LeucienWeaver Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Personally, I wish we could have multiple types of weaponry for the frames we use. Hek/Gorgon/Flux Rifle for Dethcube, Paris/Snipertron/Lex for Shade, and Grakata/Burston/Bolto for Wyrm. Edit: Not sure what weapon Shade uses as a base, but Dethcube uses Gorgon, and Wyrm uses Burston. Edited July 20, 2013 by LeucienWeaver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the Glaive for silent killing, so can I have Shade too, and he cloaks the other two and they can fire without de-cloaking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo1776 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 1 and the best is shade. Shade can save you in T3 defence alot and you can revive your ally as stealth so none from the enemies can hit you this i say is shade is more for end game big defence mission wain you have a lot of enemies is more tactical sentinel. From lvl 60+ enemies you use 100% shade from 1-50/60 use deathcube this is my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LxLawliet Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Read somewhere that when you first claim your freshly built Sentinel, it doesn't have its signature weapon equipped - you could use that weapon and equip it on another Sentinel. Unconfirmed, might be lie, though. So, what you could do is get Wyrm, but equip him with Dethcube's deadly weapon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Dethcubes abilities are MUCH better in my opinion. Also: Can we nickname the Wrym the 'Wriggler'? Giving it an authentic name does too much good for it's ugly convulses.

BIossome Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Wrym is fine for me, I don't need deathcube killing everything and stealing xp and I don't want shade turning me invisible 24/7 when I'm going on a melee rampage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
