Paladin + and Sentinel combo

[Paragon]

Just playing this game after a long time, i remember that i give my hero Paladin+ and sentinel to make interesting combo. Basically when the hero attacks with bash it will enter sentinel, the enemy will be knocked back and thus activate sentinel making the hero attack the enemy a second time.

But for some reason i can no longer trigger this reaction, did they patch this out? or maybe i'm missing something?

I don't even remember what Paladin nor Sentinel were. Is it worth coming back? ;)

Always worth coming back :) Paladin and Sentinel have been around since early access, I think, but I think that combo was patched out pretty quickly so that enemies could only trigger Guardian with non-forced movement? It's been a little while, but I see there's new patches, new gorgon behaviour... Might have to make the time.

They recently reduced hammer damage by one, so I would say it's possible this combo was fixed a while ago. I haven't used Sentinel in a long time due to playing Tragic Hero and Carved in Stone. So I can't confirm if this combo is still useful with a hammer or a spear on higher difficulties. Too risky imo.

But to clarify @Lampros, Paladin is when you enter Guardian (the reaction stance of warrior) automatically if end your turn moving in a yellow square. Sentinel increases the range of Guardian and causes you jump around to various targets. I guess with Longreach and Vigilance you could theoretically chain it 4 times on the same target with a Hammer.

And yes, I would say the game is fun to come back to. I make new profiles all the time to get new batches of legacy characters. If you didn't know, there are full campaigns now for the Morthragi, Deepists, Thrixl, and Drauven. With a newer secret campaign and a pretty good fan-made mod campaign. The devs have been supporting the game this whole time and apparently there will be future DLC.
