Battle
The Sentry Gun Prototype is a stationary enemy focused on machine gun type of attacks. The player cannot interrupt the Sentry Gun Prototype once it starts firing. Much like the vast majority of mechanical enemies, the Sentry Gun Prototype is weak against
Lightning. Being a stationary enemy, the Laser Cannon cannot be knocked down in any way, and it resists
Wind.
Hard Mode
On the hard difficulty, the Sentry Gun Prototype will use Haywire more often.
Strategy
Barret's normal attacks are the best way to interrupt to deal with the Sentry Gun Prototype, as well using Thunder.
