The Sentinel (rifle) is a Unique Combat Rifle manufactured by Hyperion.
Examples are on the talk page.
Special Weapon Effects
A watchful eye – 3.9x zoom
Drop Guide
- Mission reward from Jack's Other Eye.
- Occasional drop from Rakkinishu.
Usage & Description
The Sentinel is an underwhelming Combat Rifle. Its modifiers aren't particularly bad, but almost all of its parts are pre-determined, giving it medium damage, very low rate of fire, and mediocre accuracy (for a combat rifle). It has a very powerful scope, but insufficient accuracy to take advantage of that scope. One of its good (but not directly visible) traits is a fast reload speed.
Notes
The flavor text is referring to the scope on the gun. However, there is no significant bonus noted in the stats.
Trivia
- The weapon's name and flavor text is a reference to the Tubular Bells albums by Mike Oldfield: TB2 starts with The Sentinel [1] and TB3 The Watchful Eye. [2]
- In the BradyGames Borderlands Official Strategy Guide, the editors incorrectly state that the flavor text of this gun is "A worthless level 7 rifle".
Mechanics
The Sentinel special effect comes from the Sentinel_sight4 sight, which is exactly the same as sight4, but with more zoom. The Sentinel is always composed of barrel3, body4, stock2 and mag1. The Sentinel is made of a unique material, Sentinel_Material, which increases reload speed at the cost of Spread. See stat modifiers for an explanation on how to interpret all of these modifiers.
