| − | I say we merge the two. No need having 2 articles on basically the same thing. -- [[User:Smashman|Smashman...]] <sub>([[User_talk:Smashman|t]] • <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/smashman2004 s])</span></sub> 10:52, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | :Agreed (and obviously already done by somebody), there isn't enough to say about them for a extra articel.

| − | == Mini-Sentry Health ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Just how much health does the mini-sentry actually have? It dies to one Huntsman arrow, so definitely not more than 120. [[User:The Neotank|The Neotank]] 12:24, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Moving stuff == | |
| − | ''It appears that after the Engineer Update is released, players will be able to pick up and move their sentries around locations in a map. The Sentry retains its level after being transported in the Toolbox. It is unknown if there will be a downside to moving your Sentry.''
| |
| − | I haven't got a chance yet to play with it, but it appears to me there are no downsides beside a reduced walkspeed? Somebody with more knowledge please rewrite it <nowiki></nowiki>--[[User:CruelCow|CruelCow]] 12:47, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | :The sentry also has to rebuild from level 1. So if you move a level 3 sentry it has to build to level one, then level two then upgrade to level three. It's faster than a complete rebuild, but it takes the sentry out of action for a while. Worth timing the difference and finding out if it's worth moving, but walking slowly to the new place or destroying and walking faster but having a slower rebuild. There must be a distance that would be more advantagous to walk faster to, but build slower. -- [[User:Smashman|Smashman...]] <sub>([[User_talk:Smashman|t]] • <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/smashman2004 s])</span></sub> 12:49, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Mini-Sentry stats ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I did some testing earlier, and a few things on the page are just plain wrong.
| |
| − | First of all, it does not have 150 health, on a server where the damage dealt by it was 8 with every shot (probably no damage spread on) it took 13 shots to kill another mini-sentry, that's 104 damage, and so it's reasonable to assume it has 100 health, not 104.
| |
| − | It has a greater fire rate than a level 1 Sentry, by my count (not with a timer, just in my head) it fired roughly 50% more bullets in a second than a level 1 Sentry; this means that while it does half damage per bullet, it has 3/4 the DPS of a level 1 Sentry. - Note that these tests were done with the Wrangler, so I'm just assuming there is no odd discrepancy between non-wrangled and wrangled versions of the Mini-Sentry.
| |
| − | :I confirm it has 100 health. At least, that's what communityhud says, as it shows the numerical health of players and buildings you look at. However, the Wrangler does increase the Sentry's fire rate; you should test with it on and off.
| |
| − | ::What I mean by odd discrepancies was that I assumed that the Mini-Sentry didn't, for example, triple its fire rate instead of double with the Wrangler in use.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I'm also pretty sure that the Mini-Sentry has more than 100 rounds in its magazine, from memory it cost 150 metal to reload it, so that would be 150 rounds wouldn't it?
| |

| − | == Mini-Sentry Bug ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Even after the update earlier, I saw some glitched upgraded Mini Sentries today. I don't know if this is a different bug, or maybe Valve changed the wrong code in reference to it. Anyone else see them? [[User:Sirakou|Sirakou]] 00:01, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :I guess I'll have to play around for a bit. When you change from the Wrench to the Gunslinger or vice-versa, your sentry is destroyed, including if you're carrying it with you. --[[User:Vi3trice|Vi3trice]] 00:28, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::I know how, you pull out the build box with the sentry blueprint, and then you switch from Wrench to Claw, you build and upgrade it, and then pick it up and put it down.

| − | == Damage % of mini-sentry ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | It is described in its section at 75% but is officially 50% normal lvl1 sentry damage. [[User:ZeekNyne|ZeekNyne]] 17:34, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | : Shot by shot, the Mini-Sentry deals 50% less damage, but also fires 50% faster than a Level 1 Sentry, so it's Damage-Per-Second is 75% that of the standard Lv. 1 Sentry. Does that clear things up for you at all? -- [[User:MistahFixIt|MistahFixIt]] 18:39, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
