What Upsets Sentinels?
Recommended Videos
Now that you know that they serve as a sort of police force, knowing how to keep Sentinels from shifting their attention towards you is of the utmost importance. Thankfully, they happen to have a fairly simple set of rules that can follow (or not, it’s your adventure):
- Attacking random ships is an easy way to grab unwanted attention. You may notice several ships just like yours flitting about in space, and there’s a good chance they have some goodies on board. Attacking them is awfully tempting, but keep in mind that it may lead to a bunch of bots and Sentinel ships trying to shoot you out of the sky.
- Attacking convoys is just as bad as attacking other pilots.
- Don’t go overboard with the mining. Every single planet in No Man’s Sky has a finite number of resources. If you destroy part of the planet in order to collect Plutonium, you can expect that part to still be destroyed if you ever decide to come back. The law doesn’t take to kindly to adventurers siphoning resources all willy nilly, so be mindful.
- Killing wildlife is definitely frowned upon. If you happen to be exploring and a predator attacks you first, you should be fine. But, if you start attacking animals randomly and a Sentinel catches you, then the hunt is on.
- There will be times when you need to break into a building. If that happens, be prepared for a rush of Sentinels. They don’t appreciate your random acts of burglary.
- Killing a member of the law even if they attack you first for some odd reason.
As long as you avoid doing any of the above you should be fine and out of reach from the long arm of the law.
