Apex Legends Sentinel stats

The Sentinel is a standard click-and-shoot bolt-action sniper rifle that packs hella damage into each shot. Think of it as a Kraber-lite. Slow-firing, but if you land a hit, you know they be hurtin'. What sets the Sentinel apart from any other weapon in the Apex Legends arsenal is its unique ability to consume two Shield Cells from your inventory in order to enter a temporary charged state. During this charged state, you get a 25% damage boost for a certain amount of time (or a maximum of 8 shots, with each shot cutting off 15 seconds of charged time).
