Apex Legends’ Sentinel sniper is bugged and it’s making players “go crazy”
Apex Legends fans have noticed the bolt-action Sentinel sniper rifle’s recharge timer is broken, and it’s making players go crazy.
There’s a lot of content in Apex Legends, and sometimes the devs can overlook certain aspects of the game – which leadsto bugs, exploits, and a lot ofbalancing changes needed.

While it’s not completely game-breaking, Apex Legends players have noticed that the popular and unique bolt-action Sentinel sniper rifle’s recharge timer is broken – and it’s seriously confusing.
AReddit thread from Apex Legendsplayer dj_b2 on January 2 first pointed out that the Sentinel charge timer is broken, and pleaded to the devs to fix it.

The unique rifle has a recharge time of five seconds, which has a countdown in the bottom right corner when recharging. However, as demonstrated in dj_b2’s video, it takes more time after it reaches zero to charge properly.
“Can they fix the Sentinel charge soon,” dj_b2 asked. “Why even have a timer if it takes more time after it reaches 0 and the bar has been filled?”

Other Apex Legends fans seemed to have noticed it themselves as well and were relieved to find out they weren’t going crazy. “I really thought I was just an idiot. Glad I’m not going crazy here,”said one player.
It seems the Sentinel rifle isn’t the only weapon to have the issue, as the Rampage LMG supposedly has the same problem.

“Same thing happening with the rampage, that sh*t is annoying as hell,”claimed one player. However, the Rampage timer issues aren’t as noticeable as the Sentinelaccording to mikah42106: “Rampage is much less noticeable thankfully, but still bothersome.”
