Sentry's Call gear talent

[MurphDog6]

Last night I got my hands on my 4th piece of Sentry's call gear. The talent is a beast. Photo attached shows the bonus talent "Stalker"

this talent marks the enemy increasing incoming damage by 15% for 10 seconds. The same enemy can be marked 3 times, meaning it stacks and that enemy has 45% increased incoming damage for 10 seconds. Everyone has this set down as a sniper gear set. (I do run a sniper with this gear on incursion and challenging) but let me assure you this is not the case. Using my Midas with this talent active rips through elite enemy's. I have to hit 3 head shots with a 61 mag on my Midas and then that enemy is taking 45% more incoming damage as well as pulsing and the crit chance boost on the Midas they don't stand a chance! Just thought I would share this effective talent on the gear. I think that this talent is so much better than the Striker's battle gear as you don't have to continually hit the enemy and don't lose the bonus if you miss shots. Seriously would highly recommend going for this gear set if you are a sniper or after dps!

Nice. I was thinking 4 sentry 2 stalker. Still grinding for the pieces though.

The 20% enemy Armor damage from strikers sounds good to me too! Although I am also eyeing up tactician for that +4000 skill power. Guess I will try out both if I can see what works for me

For a sniper, it may be, but you still have to start from scratch with each target. With Strikers, the bonus is a constant once you have it, allowing target changes with no drop in dps.

That is a very valid point I didn't think of that. I am currently regularly playing with 2 other friends and we have set up that I run sentry one guy is after stikers gear and the other tactician, I am the only one with a full set at the moment and the sentry talent is making life a hell of a lot easier in challenge mode and incursions. The 3 of us were nice enough to carry a guy through the incursion last night (he was down 50% of the time)

Anyone wanna trade me a pair of striker gloves? :-( 

Oh yeah...has anyone noticed that if you send a pulse scan after you've mark a target and your bonus is active, it applies the bonus to all targets in range? I'm not sure if it's a glitch or if that is its intent, but it's pretty damn awesome.

I also run with the Sentry's Call gear set as well but I was thinking the "Stalker" talent only stacked if another player with the gear set landed a headshot on the same target. I have been under the impression I could myself only apply one mark to a single target and in so only increase the damage to that target by an additional 15% and the stacked 45%.

Am I wrong?

Yes, you are. Even solo, you can stack up three marks to achieve 45%, but each mark has it's own timer for how long it lasts, and no marks will move from one target to another.
