|info=This is the 'mini-curse'.  With its range bonus to small neuts the Sentinel can control and therefore win or disengage at will from fights involving other frigates which leads to a reputation as a solopwnmobile, only mitigated by the reputation of EAS being useless and therefore generally underflown.
|info=The Sentinel is sometimes known as the 'mini-curse'.  It shares the range as well as the amount bonuses to cap warfare with its Combat Recon big brother, meaning that as far as small neuts go the Sentinel is unmatched in the frigate class.  The other bonuses are 5% per level to TDs (the other factor in common with its Amarr Recon counterparts), and the EAS bonus to capacitor (which is particularly sweet on this hull).


This is a ship that really needs its applicable command skill to V to be functional, and which benefits more than normal from the addition of a few meta 7+ modulesWith all skills V you can see the effectiveness of various small neuts and nos in the tables below.
The Sentinel is missing any sort of drone bonus and this means that, since the highs are usually dedicated to cap warfare mods, the damage output is low at best.  Again in Amarr drone boat fashion the drone bay is huge (60 m3 - the largest on a frigate in game), but this is balanced by only a 20 Mbit/sec bandwidthThe total then is 3 flights of 4 light drones (most fits are 2 flights of damage and 1 of ECM).


This ship also has the largest frigate dronebay in the game at 60 m3 and it can carry 3 flights of 4 light drones (as it only has 20 Mbit/sec bandwidth)Usually this would be two sets of damage drones with a flight of EC-300s as backup, which further reinforces its ability to dictate terms in a frigate 1v1.  
When you add ~20km small neuts, the damage mitigation of bonused TDs, and the ability to bring EWAR drones without sacrificing flexibilty you get an extremely versitile package.  This leads to a reputation as a solopwnmobile, which is only mitigated by the reputation of the EAS class as a whole being being useless and therefore being generally underflownWhen exceptions are made to a statement like that, usually the Sentinel is the one mentioned.
