After bringing shade on about 30-40 Spy missions, ranging from Lua, Kuva fortress and all levels of spy (yhea, farming Ivara and spy mods is really fun...) This is my verdict:

It's so pathetically useless that's it's insulting. Out of about 100 terminals hacked i can only remember a single time this garbage saved me, when he cloacked me right before a drone that i didn't see could detect me. Only time ever.

It has all kinds of problems. Cloacking and uncloacking are essentially random, because of sentinel vision (completely buggy and arbitrary) and other unexplainable reasons. Yes i did read Ghost page, i know what makes you uncloack, that doesn't change anything, it's buggy and random beyond reason. I'm not kidding you when i say the average cloack time is 2s, no matter how hard you try to remain cloacked.

The only purpose of this sentinel is to gain MR. The fix would be trivial, make cloacking dependant on Player vision, and give cloack for full duration no matter what, only trigger to uncloack should be loud weapons, and enemy detection based on being damaged but not dead (exactly like silent weapons work). Make cloack 8s, 6s idk, but just make it work dammit.
