Here\u2019s what the FPS pro had to say. Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek is known for his impeccable aim and snappy FPS skills. In fact, the Twitch streamer invariably dominates the competition in most battle royale games. It\u2019s not uncommon for shroud to rack up high kill count games and wow fans with his robot-like precision. Now that Apex Legends Season 7 update has gone live, shroud has returned to Respawn\u2019s ever-popular BR. So far, the Twitch streamer has been dominating players with the Sentinel sniper rifle. From landing impressive aerial headshots to scintillating longshot kills, there\u2019s seemingly nothing this FPS pro can\u2019t do. However, in amongst his gameplay shroud gave his views on why Apex Legends\u2019 Sentinel should never be charged. Why you shouldn\u2019t charge the Sentinel The Sentinel is one of the most unique guns in Apex Legends thanks to its \u2018Disruptor\u2019 mechanic. Players can charge up the Sentinel to empower each shot and unleash deadly blasts that completely destroy an enemy\u2019s armor. This may seem incredibly powerful but it does require decent aim, especially if you want to unleash those colossal headshot hits. Shroud has been a big fan of the Sentinel for a while, but he has now given his reasons as to why players should never charge it. \u201cThe reason why I don\u2019t really charge the Sentinel is because the damage still results in the same amount required to get a kill if they\u2019re full HP,\u201d says shroud. \u201cYeah, they might be a little bit lower if my teammates hit them with rifle shots, so that\u2019s good, but overall, you still need the same amount of shots, charged or not charged. You still need three body shots anyway.\u201d Of course, charging the Sentinel will give you access to those big damage numbers, but it is often best to ping away at your foes with uncharged shots. This is especially true when you\u2019re trying to fight multiple foes at once.
