Show me a gif of you killing an Anointed that quickly with your weapons without getting hit, and I'll be willing to take you seriously. But you are getting hit. Backlash doesn't provide cover or even much protection. I don't know how to respond to this tbh. Have you seen the first gif with the Anointed? When exactly was I hit?

I haven't been enthusiastic about much in this game, but I second everything you've said about Backlash - it's the first power to really make me enjoy myself - and as I mentioned in my post in another thread, it's its effect on the Anointed which first made me realize how great it is. I like Barricade too, but it's not exactly an exciting power by comparison.

I liked backlash, but it doesn't stop enough damage. Maybe I just have a glitch with the power, but as I see in those gifs, the shields of the sentinel are dropping. It's fine, sometimes, approaching one enemy, but if there are more than one enemy, I find backlash drops way, way too fast.

I was just looking at the beginning and end of the gifs; your backlash seems to work, mine does not. At some point, perhaps with one of the updates, my backlash no longer stopped damage; it still reflected and damaged enemies, but my shields and health continue to drop. I have played a lot of this game, but I no longer play the Asari sentinel because of the behaviour of backlash.

Nah it still drops sometimes immediately after casting (and then you get the full cooldown). I had it happen today

Huh. The pattern is so consistent I got confused because I didn't realize the conversation was happening across two different threads. Where have you seen that reactive armor affects weapon damage from barricade? The description just says restoration and defense OP, are you sure Tech Armor 5b ("+50% accuracy while moving" part to be specific) is working on human sentinel? Cuz it is not working on my Asari Sentinel even after 1.08, but I haven't tested it on HS yet. Edit: Okay, just used a respec card on Human Sentinel to test it... I am pretty certain my accuracy is not becoming better while moving. I don't personally have a question for OP, except maybe to ask about what appears to be an aversion to discussing his builds or answering questions about them.

I have played a lot of this game, but I no longer play the Asari sentinel because of the behaviour of backlash. There was a bug prior to 1.08 where it wouldn't stop incoming fire sometimes. It was rare, but happened often enough to be frustrating, because it's pretty damn noticeable when you pop your big defensive shield and keep getting shot in the face right through it. This was supposed to be fixed in the last patch, though, and I haven't had it happen to me since then. If that's not what you're talking about, then I don't know. Are you sure someone isn't shooting you in the ass while you have it up? : P

So far I haven't been shot through my backlash since the last patch, but I still get the glitch where it drops instantly when you try to put it up

OP, are you sure Tech Armor 5b ("+50% accuracy while moving" part to be specific) is working on human sentinel? Cuz it is not working on my Asari Sentinel even after 1.08, but I haven't tested it on HS yet. Edit: Okay, just used a respec card on Human Sentinel to test it... I am pretty certain my accuracy is not becoming better while moving. A accuracy bonus kicks in. No-one knows the exact elongated DPS formula bioware used in this game. But, just from testing on a few bronze enemies with a single Crusader shot, (moving side-side vs standing still and shooting), it increases damage with movement.

So what you are saying is... instead of giving +50% accuracy, TA 5b boosts damage?

30 seconds into the video, he drops Barricade and then takes 5 seconds to kill a Raider. It took 3 seconds for me to kill a pre nerf Anointed. Was this supposed to help your case? Interesting... Oh, I do know how to use Barricade. It's about playstyle. What you do is rush into a group of enemies, pop it, stun/detonate them and take them out with the gun. With Backslash you can only take down single targets, and only when they're shooting at you. So yeah, to me it's obvious, Barricade is more useful and more effective. You seem to have understood the added benefits of barricade over backlash. Crowd control (Barricade, as shown in my sample video) vs only being able to take down single target at at time (Backlash). Other thoughts: With backlash, you can put it up and entire groups of enemies will stop shooting at you or in your directions (AI's not as dumb as it looks) and down went your backlash damage potential. With barricade, after you run up and set a barricade by a group and stun/prime them, they will make an attempt to walk away from the barricade. But, before they do, you can initiate combos, pop em in the head and finish em off. (guaranteed damage). Kenny Bania has a lot to learn about 'gitting gud'. He sat back behind a barricade with a vanquisher hoping for shit to run into him. After the vanquisher got nerfed into honesty, he quit.

Get off your lazy fat ass and do some testing. Your lazy ass uses the asari sentinel! (i can tell), she has tech armor too. so do some testing with her and report back

The story is already wierd enough when some of the players claiming the "+50% accuracy while moving" bonus is so awesome like it exists... If the evo really gives +50% accuracy, it would be so obvious as an elephant entering the room...
