Sentinel Watchman Basics Guide

Watchman

Some try to take down their opponent with a single blow, but the Watchman Sentinel chooses to utilize calculated strikes that continue to dismantle their foe over time. An aggressive stance and merciless offense help to keep the Watchman’s foe from comprehending the toll they’ve taken until it’s too late.

  • Role: Damage
  • Type: Damage Over Time
  • Weapon: Double Lightsabers
  • Distance: Melee Range
  • Mirror: Marauder- Annihilation

Watchman for New Players

  •  Sentinels start without any Focus, which is their energy pool for attacks. This might make them harder to learn compared to other classes that start with a full bar of energy, as you need to learn how to build your Focus up before you can use some of your other abilities. It’s easy to build Focus, but you can’t button mash.
  • Watchman is melee range. That means you must be very close to your enemy to attack, which can be harder for new players to get used to. You get a jump ability to help you get into combat quicker and can throw your double lightsabers if you get too far away.
  • This style is very mobile and you can easily run and jump around while fighting without any issues!
  • Of the three Sentinel disciplines, I found Watchman to be the easiest to learn.

How to play a Watchman Sentinel

You can start playing Watchman at level 1. To start playing Watchman, you will need to first create a Sentinel character, which can be played by Jedi Knights and Jedi Consulars (or even the Sith Warrior and Sith Inquisitor if you unlock the dark-side Combat Styles.)

Once you are ingame, press K on your keyboard to open the Combat Style tab, and choose Watchman from the three options. This choice is not permanent, you will be able to switch between all three options by finding a rest location like a cantina.

Below Level 80

Below Level 80

If you are below level 80, there are no true guides available to tell you what specific abilities you should be using, because the ideal rotation would change every level.

Instead, you can use this guide to figure out which of your abilities are attacks, which are defensive, and which are just useful.

Level 80

5 Ability Basic Rotation

Not quite ready to learn all your abilities yet? Use this quick 5-ability rotation for Watchman until you’re ready to read and learn from a true level 80 guide.

Starting the fight:

  • If you can, use your Introspection regeneration ability before the fight starts, allowing you to use Zen right away.
  • If you don’t have time to use Introspection, use Valorous Call instead.
  • Always jump into the fight with Force Leap, as it will also help you build Focus, which is your energy, so you can use your other abilities.

In the fight: 

  • Cauterize + Force Melt are your important Damage over Time (DoT) abilities. Use Force Melt as often as it becomes available to re-apply your DoT.
  •  Merciless Slash is your strongest ability you have, and once your DoTs are up should be used as often as it’s available!
  •  Zealous Strike is the biggest Focus generator you have. Make sure to use it at times where your Focus is very low so that you don’t waste any by hitting the cap.
  •  Slash is a strong filler ability that gets some buffs from your Merciless Slash. When you have nothing else to do or need to drop some Focus before using Zealous Strike, use some Slashes. If you’re finding you’re still running out of abilities to use, use your basic Strike attack.

More than 3 Enemies

  •  Force Sweep is very important to Watchman Area Damage, because it will spread the DoTs you put on your first target to all others ALSO caught in the blast.
  •  Twin Saber Throw is an attack that will damage all targets in a line 30m long, with the angle depending on your main target you start the throw at. Line it up to catch all targets!
  •  If you still need more area damage, Cyclone Slash can replace a few of your regular Slashes.

Extra Tips

  • Feeling Spicy? Overload Saber will apply a big boost to your DoT damage, use Saber on cooldown for a big boost. Add this in as soon as you feel comfortable as it will do a bunch of damage!
  • Zen is a very important cooldown to seeing Watchman Sentinel shine, as it will cause all of your burns to critically hit and heals your whole group! Use this when it glows.
  •  Twin Saber Throw is a great free filler. It does double damage when it’s glowing, so only use it then.
  •  Dispatch is also a great attack to use, but is only available when the target is under 30% HP. You’ll definitely see your DPS increase using this regularly at the end of fights.
Level 80

Before you start…

If you have 3,000 Tech Fragments, go and buy the Spiteful Saber tactical item.

With this tactical item, you no longer need to keep track of your Cauterize DoT – apply it once, and any time you use Slash, Dispatch or Twin Saber Throw it will be automatically refreshed. Getting Spiteful Saber will make your entire rotation flow smoother.

Tree Choices

As you level up, you will be able to make choices about how you play your Watchman Sentinel with the Ability Tree, which can be opened with the K key on your keyboard. If you do not choose one, a default option will be chosen for you.

You will have eight choices to make as you level up, at levels 23, 27, 39, 43, 51, 64, 68 and 73. All of these Ability Tree choices are not permanent choices and can be changed later. If you are following a Level 80 guide on how to play your Watchman Sentinel, you will need to make sure to choose the same options as they have. You may not have the same choices chosen as a friend who is also playing a Watchman Sentinel.

Force Melt deals twice its initial damage whenever it consumes a stack of Zen and heals you for 35% of the damage that it deals.

Force Melt deals twice its initial damage whenever it consumes a stack of Zen and heals you for 35% of the damage that it deals.

General Suggestion: Melting Center - This choice not only buffs Force Melt but also enables you to activate Zen more often, which is always a great thing to do on a Sentinel. Take by default.

Level 27 Choice

Choose from one of three Sentinel abilities at Level 27, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Watchman Sentinel for the Level 27 choice are Snaring Slash, Debilitating Slashes, and Transcendence.

Applies Transcendence to you and your group members within 40 meters, increasing movement speed by 80%, melee and ranged defense by 10%, and purges movement-impairing effects. Lasts 10 seconds.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Transcendence - Transcendence is an extremely useful speed boost and slight defensive ability, and since nobody can take it for you when playing solo, you must take it yourself!

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Transcendence - Transcendence is an extremely useful speed boost and slight defensive ability, and since nobody can take it for you when playing solo, you must take it yourself!

Flashpoint Suggestion: Transcendence - Transcendence is an extremely useful speed boost and slight defensive ability, This is a great buff to share with your group members during movement-heavy fights or just for going from point A to point B faster. Only consider a different choice if someone else is already using Transcendence/Predation.

Level 39 Choice: Cauterize Change

Choose from one of three ways that you want Cauterize to change at level 39. Your options are Force Fracture, Flaming Wave, and Cauterizing Focus.

Cauterize

Strikes the target for weapon damage and causes it to burn for elemental damage over 9 seconds. Requires two lightsabers.

Flaming Wave

Dealing damage with Cauterize sends a wave out from your primary target, causing any of your burns on nearby targets to deal damage.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Flaming Wave - Excellent passive AoE choice that doesn't take much effort. Just spread your DoTs out from the highest health target and watch the group fall over.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Cauterizing Focus - Watchman can be very focus-hungry when played properly. This choice's refund keeps the rotation going smoothly.

Operation Suggestion: Cauterizing Focus - Watchman can be very focus-hungry when played properly. This choice's refund keeps the rotation going smoothly.

Level 43 Choice

Choose from one of three Sentinel abilities at Level 43, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Watchman Sentinel for the Level 43 choice are Force Clarity, Burning Center, and Burning Zen.

All melee damage attacks deal additional burn damage while Zen is active. The damage does not consume a charge of Zen and cannot occur more than once per second.

General Suggestion: Burning Center - Works in the background to increase Zen uptime dramatically for free. Best choice by far.

Level 51 Choice

Intercessor

Force Leap gets an additional charge and builds 2 Centering when activated.

Force Leap gets an additional charge and builds 2 Centering when activated.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Adamant - Lots of difficult fights to solo in SWTOR can be made more maneageable if you can break out of Stuns more often. If damage is the bigger issue, take Steel Self and keep Transcendence handy for some Area Reduction.

Flashpoint Suggestion: Steel Self - Inspiration should be saved as a cooldown for you group when they want it, but Rebuke and Transcendence can be kept in your pocket for moments of large, group-wide damage you'd like to survive.

Operation Suggestion: Steel Self - Inspiration should be saved as a cooldown for you group when they want it, but Rebuke and Transcendence can be kept in your pocket for moments of large, group-wide damage you'd like to survive.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Intercessor - Jumping around from group to group of enemies can make the leveling process much faster, and the boost of Centering will help keep Zen going without pausing between each pack.

Level 64 Choice

Choose from one of three Sentinel abilities at Level 64, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Watchman Sentinel for the Level 64 choice are Adjudicator, Trailblazer, and Zealous Ward.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Trailblazer - Decent AoE boost for easy content where you can pull lots.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Zealous Ward - Zealous Ward is a great defensive as it kind of turns Saber Ward into a mini-Focused Defense with the heal per attack component!

Flashpoint Suggestion: Zealous Ward - Zealous Ward is a great defensive as it kind of turns Saber Ward into a mini-Focused Defense with the heal per attack component!

Operation Suggestion: Zealous Ward - Zealous Ward is a great defensive as it kind of turns Saber Ward into a mini-Focused Defense with the heal per attack component!

Level 68 Choice

Choose from one of three Sentinel abilities at Level 68, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Watchman Sentinel for the Level 68 choice are Guarded by the Force, Force Stasis, and Blade Blitz.

Reduces the damage you take by 99% for 6 seconds.

Reduces the damage you take by 99% for 6 seconds.

Force Stasis

Subdues the target, stunning it for 4 seconds. Deals kinetic damage and builds 3 focus over the duration. This ability can be channeled while moving.

You can use your short stun on weaker enemies to stop them from running around, from casting abilities, to stop them from damaging you, or just to keep them out of the fight in general.

Blade Blitz

Quickly rush forward 20 meters, dealing weapon damage to enemies in your path and increasing your defense chance by 100% while blitzing. Can be used while immobilized and purges movement-impairing effects when activated.

Quickly rush forward 20 meters, dealing weapon damage to enemies in your path and increasing your defense chance by 100% while blitzing. Can be used while immobilized and purges movement-impairing effects when activated.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Guarded by the Force - 6 seconds may not sound like a lot of time but taking virtually no damage for that long can be the difference between clearing a hard piece of content in the game and dying. Make a habit of using it quickly if you see you suddenly get aggro. For content where the target is susceptible to stuns, Force Stasis can serve as an extra interrupt and Blade Blitz is a great additional movement ability, but if those aren't needed definitely keep Guarded By the Force as your default skill.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Blade Blitz - It doesn't exactly do impressive AoE damage but if you're taking on a hallway of easy enemies, Blade Blitzing through is likely the best choice.

Level 73 Choice

Choose from one of three Sentinel abilities at Level 73, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Watchman Sentinel for the Level 73 choice are Inspired Focus, Incisor, and Stoic.

Inspired Focus

Inspiration generates 12 focus when activated, and you heal for 1% of your maximum health whenever you activate an ability that consumes focus.

Inspiration generates 12 focus when activated, and you heal for 1% of your maximum health whenever you activate an ability that consumes focus.

Incisor

Force Leap, Force Melt, Clashing Blast, and Zealous Leap snare the target, reducing its movement speed by 50% for 6 seconds.

Force Leap, Force Melt, Clashing Blast, and Zealous Leap snare the target, reducing its movement speed by 50% for 6 seconds.

Stoic

Increases your damage reduction by 2%, and you build 2 Centering when attacked. This Centering building effect cannot occur more than once every 1.5 seconds.

Increases your damage reduction by 2%, and you build 2 Centering when attacked. This Centering building effect cannot occur more than once every 1.5 seconds.

General Suggestion: Inspired Focus - Even if you're forgetting to use Inspiration in most content, the passive 1% heal every time you use a focus spender alone makes this choice the best in the tier. Default to this for sure.

Solo Single-Enemy Suggestion: Lots of difficult fights to solo in SWTOR can be made more maneageable if you can break out of Stuns more often. If damage is the bigger issue, take Steel Self and keep Transcendence handy for some Area Reduction.

LvL68
Guarded by the ForceOptional Defensive Level 68 Option 1/3

Reduces the damage you take by 99% for 6 seconds.

Reduces the damage you take by 99% for 6 seconds.

General Suggestion: 6 seconds may not sound like a lot of time but taking virtually no damage for that long can be the difference between clearing a hard piece of content in the game and dying. Make a habit of using it quickly if you see you suddenly get aggro. For content where the target is susceptible to stuns, Force Stasis can serve as an extra interrupt and Blade Blitz is a great additional movement ability, but if those aren't needed definitely keep Guarded By the Force as your default skill.

LvL68
Force StasisOptional Stun 10m (short range) Level 68 Option 2/3

Subdues the target, stunning it for 4 seconds. Deals kinetic damage and builds 3 focus over the duration. This ability can be channeled while moving.

Solo Many-Enemy Suggestion: It doesn't exactly do impressive AoE damage but if you're taking on a hallway of easy enemies, Blade Blitzing through is likely the best choice.

LvL68

Dealing Burn damage to a target increases your damage reduction by 5% for 3 seconds.

Inspiration generates 12 focus when activated, and you heal for 1% of your maximum health whenever you activate an ability that consumes focus.

Inspiration generates 12 focus when activated, and you heal for 1% of your maximum health whenever you activate an ability that consumes focus.

General Suggestion: Even if you're forgetting to use Inspiration in most content, the passive 1% heal every time you use a focus spender alone makes this choice the best in the tier. Default to this for sure.

LvL73
IncisorOptional Passive Level 73 Option 2/3

Force Leap, Force Melt, Clashing Blast, and Zealous Leap snare the target, reducing its movement speed by 50% for 6 seconds.
