Tips

A charged Plasma Pistol shot is the most effective way to destroy a Sentinel in one hit.
Sustained fire from a Plasma Pistol or Plasma Rifle can also take down a Sentinel quickly.
Placing a Plasma Grenade in a Sentinel's path is effective due to their sensitivity to close-range explosions.
If a Plasma Grenade sticks to one Sentinel, it can destroy others in the group if they are nearby.
