Progen Sentinel End-Game Gear Guide
This is the guide for equipping the ultimate sentinel! The two main roles for a PS are dps and utility so in this guide we'll cover the best for both those equipment sets as well as some more reasonable replacements for those still reaching for the highest level.

Reactors L8
Since Progen Sentinel's can only use L8 reactors, here are some to consider. Generally the Vulture is the best for combat and the SS8 for prospecting.
If using others, for combat, you will need a device or PL to reduce PL energy cost. A Martyr's Heart device is always useful:

- L1-L2 Executioner's Finger (accuracy is worth the lower dps)
- Crossbows with an Executioner's Finger is best.
- L2 Crossbow

- L3-L4 Bayonets (plasma, chem +warp charge for faster warping, reduced warp cost, +speed)
- L5 Rifles (destruction to any mob that cannot recharge their shields)
- L6 Mortars/Longbows (best is a combo), Rifles if you don't mind tearing through a massive amount of ammo.
- L7 Zenshai Power Cannon

Shields
- L3-6 Waterloo (Activated shunt to reactor for mining/combat, projectile range is very nice)
- L4 Shroud of the Optimal Mission reward from Optional L30 Hull Upgrade Mission (Projectile range boost, projectile energy cost reduced, and +27 energy resist equiped, great for farming manes)
