[edit | edit source]Q: Does a Sentinel with Vigilance see in all directions and resist Surprise Attack?
A: Yes — Vigilance grants 360° awareness and immunity to Surprise Attack, and it keeps STK 2 on reactive shots. To shut it down, engage it in melee first so it can't make ranged attacks and its LoS is limited to its Awareness. (— meksmaks)
