The following additional Powersets could be proliferated as Sentinel Primary Powersets:

• Darkness Manipulation
• Darkness Assault
• Earth Assault
• Electricity Assault
• Electricity Manipulation
• Energy Assault
• Energy Manipulation
• Fiery Assault
• Fire Manipulation
• Icy Assault
• Ice Manipulation
• Mental Manipulation

• Thorny Assault

 

I don't want a Blast/Armor toon, I want a Manipulation/Armor toon! Let's make that happen!

That'd be a different archetype altogether.

Sents already can get good melee attacks in many of their epic pools and these are often the maximum DPS builds for Sents. Would be simplest to ask for more epic pools for Sentinels.

^^^ This.

It might be a fun archetype, but, it wouldn't be Sentinel.

Sounds like the existence of the Sentinel is proof this is doable. All we need to discuss is the Archetype Passive power.

I'd be down for opening the Sentinel AT a little to include Assault sets especially since that would allow a player to combine multiple styles of Melee attacks

Martial Assault/Nin/Ninja APP would allow a player to to use Martial Arts attacks & Katana attacks

Seems better suited for the creation of a new AT....

Honestly just dump the Assault sets into Sentinel, keep sentinel modifiers for melee & range & call it a day which means if the devs desire to do it they can port the power pools in their next internal build.

Otherwise, the devs would have to create a new inherent, new ATOs, potentially new APPs & PPPs & then there are differentiation considerations which will bring with it new balance considerations.
