Sentinel Shield Issues

Sentinel Shield has a few issues that i dont like, just with consistency. I made two posts already but im just gonna put those and more stuff that bother me here for now. Unbreakable blocks more than Sentinel Shield. I know balancing might be why but I dont like that an aspect blocks more things than a super. For example Boops from taken ogres knockback you while youre blocking in your super but you dont not get knockbacked while blocking with unbreakable. I dont really like that and hope its changed so Sentinel Shield blocks the same as Unbreakable or better. I also dont like that blocking strand wave attack thing, the wave that the dread psions do in particular, dont get blocked as well as blocking the average boss stomp. If my teammates are too close even if they are behind the shield they still get pulled with the attack. I think it should only pull me while blocking my teammates. or even just block both stomps and other things all together if bungie wants it to be that op. Charged Shield Throw doesnt work on some bosses and feel funny. i like the dmg it does, its slightly less than thundercrash with cuirass but on some bosses like Oryx, The Witness and lockset from Sundered Doctrine it just doesnt work. and on some bosses, it feels like the beyond light bosses in story mode, it doesnt work on them either. maybe it does but the health bar doesnt look like it moves. i think the dmg for each throw is fine but i know some people think its not enough of a trade off for not running tcrash with cuirass but i think its ok if its a little less and ur supposed to use it in place of a well not a tcrash. if the dmg gets buffed i wouldnt mind but i think its fine. Shield Throw also should be a priority buff on the left side of my screen, i dont need to know that i have arc soul or radiant over the Shield Throw meter. i think the other things before this are more important. I think the things I talked about happening would be really nice and make the super even more fun to use, its my favorite super in the game right now. If Bungie decided to buff stuff i wouldnt mind either. mostly just so people are more ok with it i guess but im happy with it. probably the autoloading coming down to 2 seconds or lower so its easier to load guns for dumping. my friend used a heavy gl on the day one dungeon and didnt have to reload but with rockets you have to do a rotation and people already run those so i dont know if the difference is as good, at least people say its not running for. they could also buff weapons of light to be 30% or 35% but if im honest it think its ok its a little less than boots well so the trade off is auto loading so i think if something had to be buffed it should be the auto loading timer. thanks for buffing sentinel to begin with bungie, i always thought u would forget about it and buff bubble if anything but i hope it stays good and stuff. Sentinel Shield and Void Titan is my favorite class and i got to run it on a day one again so im glad you are buffing it a little. sorry for long post with bad writing. i did this in a couple minutes and didnt proof read or anything. [b]Adding[/b] one more thing to the post i forgot to talk about. i think its ok but it does suck i cant block suppress in pve with it, if it toggles my shield off or doesnt let me do shield throw or turns off auto loading while im surpassed that would be cool but i keep the super, its really only and issue on nezarec but i wish i could block it for dps phases too. i know itd be an issue if everything could be blocked for free i guess. [b]Adding another thing not too related [/b] i dont like that synthos buffs all titan supers bc i have to run it for supers that dont have a dedicated exotic for damage boosts, so if i wont to do more dmg with Sentinel Shield Throw i have to run synthoseps. obv it only works when surrounded but i wish it just didnt work and the dmg was baked in to titan supers even if its not 50% since you arent surrounded, its also an issue for twilight arsenal too. i like running ursas for the energy u get back so u can go into super again sooner and it give unbreakable benefits too. i know u can just swap so u can have both but its just kind of weird design to me. its not a big deal tho
