It depends a fair bit on the class I'm using. Lately, I've been playing a lot with my Fury, and Escort the Drone is horrible because I'm a close range fighter trying to deal with enemies that are a long way off. If I go to deal with them, that stalls the Escort mission.

Enable four devices can be horrible when soloing.

Hack cause half the time im the only guy in there while they all run around and kill things 10m outside the zone.

[Uh Cold]

Hack during speed runs and devices during bad pubs.

If the devices spawn bad most of the time my team dies around them and it takes forever to lure the enemy on the other side of the map to solo the dam objective.(When im not inf.)

[MagicThoughts]

Disable devices on round 10 with no duration infiltraitor, good lord its so annoying.

[GottvonHoff]

Hacking. Especially in Reactor (in the... well, reactor), Giant (when the terminal spawns right in the open) and London (almost every hacking spot).

[sigma_draconis]

With a team it would've been Delivery. It's always hard keeping the carrier alive especially when the slowest character is the one who picked it up.

Solo it would be 4 devices. It is the only objective where you can literally do nothing but pray that the enemies don't find you during that 10s it takes to do one.

Depends on the map. Pizza on Rio can be freaking HARD, while on Glacier it can be a 20 second run.

OMFG, this.  I just got pizza on wave 10 rio for the first time.  Geth.  Gold.  Sweet Jesus.  It made reaper hacks in the reactor core look like child's play.  Everybody was using consumables like it was going out of style and we still failed.  Getting the pizza from one end of Rio to the other has to be the hardest objective in the game.

Doing a hack with randoms is harder than solo, so hack.

[stayposi1990]

The four devices and hack objective. My favorite is objects and targets.

[Flambirex]

I remember sy7ar's Drell Vanguard Reapers Gold Solo on Hydra when he got disable devices... on all three objective waves. That was some great play.

[Frozen Mind]

Hacking. Closely spawned unlimited enemies sounds "fun".
I liked disabling devices, until my tactical cloak stopped working.

[Drummernate]

4 objectives.

Solo? 2 Banshees chasing you?

Glacier?

No thanks.

[Beerfish]

solo is 4 devices no question about it. It is much tougher to kite enemies on the 4 devices because often the devices are not that far from each other.

[hot_heart]

Pizza delivery. Simply due to its bugginess.

I recall the game where it was delivered but never triggered and, after much confusion among teammates, I finally figured out how to finish the objective by trying to walk the item back out of the finish zone...

Wave 10 Central courtyard London Hack.

Hell, that goes even in a group on Silver/Gold.

This.

Recovering 'X' and taking the object to extraction point

Why? Because I seem to mostly get the stupid team mates, who, with the squishiest class pick it up and get killed in a cluster f off enemies making it a necessity to use a missile when you don't want to risk a spawn bomb of units near the extraction point. Or the ones who don't drop it for a Krogan to do the heavy melee trick to get it there quicker.

I've had this on Geth / Silver with both pizzas at the far end and that's bad enough - you potentially end up having to take care of four sets of Primes, especially if people get over-excited and rocket them unnecessarily (or if they're camping the pizza location) then they respawn near the drop-off point. On Gold I can see many wipes happening in that scenario (unlimited Hunter spawns in wave 10, 3 Primes at any one time, limited cover most of the way).

asari is still the best out there for the pizza, though you have to be host
even the ultra fast guys like geth, shadow  with adrenaline III... can't compare to constant dodge, i've literally gone trough 2 primes without dying many times thx to this trick,
i hate when the randoms take the pizza, it seems like absoluteny non of them know the tricks, not even the walking sida way one


with a bad team, an hack against reaper is the end
what i hate the most is: when you get the escort on rio, the one that goes from one side to the opposite
you're a bit more than half way through it, and some idiot rockets the ennemies => they all spawn back where you're headed when the way way was clear before

Easiest (hurr hurr) way on Rio, I found in a Gold/Cerb (from an U/U/G) was that I (as a Geth Engi) ran with a Kroguard who was using the heavy melee to get their quicker and I kept spamming my turret that is speced for shield regen to keep him alive. We still got fairly luck in that Cerb. were focused on him and not hitting me too much. The other two players were hammering the s out of the low level enemies though. In fairness I think that was one of the best lobbies I have ever been in, if not the best. Went on a 12 game run with them.

If your host...Krogan heavy melee with Geth Engi Turret speced for shield regen is the most consistent though even if neither of you are host.  They are usually too busy, as you said, firing rockets into huge masses of enemies to make them spawn where you need to be on objective waves <_<

Edit: Sorry for the double post.

SOLO: Devices. They KILL a solo, especially since the time limit prevents effective kiting, and if you're (a non-infil perhaps) on a tight map easily covered by enemy forces...
You, the only damager, guaranteed to be holding 100% of the aggro, have to sit out in the open(!) for TEN SECONDS STRAIGHT, trying not to get hit (and therefore staggered) by anything stronger than a peashooter. If you do, even a little bit, you must start again from the beginning, still in the open, as the enemies slowly grow ever denser around you.
You are then expected to do this three more times.
Sometimes the devices are placed in nooks that will provide 'soft cover' once you crouch down to Try-Not-Die. However, most are not so courteous - if they DO have soft cover, it is always in the WRONG DIRECTION.

RUNNER UP: Pizza. You are unable to dodge, sprint, charge, or do anything faster than slowly shuffle around the map while you desperately spam bullets and powers to stop those pyros breathing down your neck. More tolerable than devices since one can drop the pizza for a bit and take a breather. (Note - STILL THAT TIME LIMIT)



LAST MAN STANDING: Hack. Not only do you have all of that enemy attention and the pressures you have of a solo, because you're still technically only 25% of the team you have to be in the circle ALL THE TIME to get even a CHANCE at winning in that time limit. I once pug'd with three idiots who didn't even bother to head towards the hack on Giant (DESPITE me asking for aid over the mic). After they wiped with what seemed like seconds, I was still the only one who had ever been in the hack circle. If the time limit had been FIFTEEN SECONDS MORE, I'd have made it. Alas, no.
Though I have fortunuately not had to do it, I imagine the problem persists with the escort drone also, which will trundle along at the slowest possible speeds through the densest areas.

Last man standing is also affected by solo difficulties, but hack will trump even devices.

Depends on the map and enemy faction, and team... But Hack/Download objectives are just painful against Reapers, and on some maps they tend to spawn exposed to fire from every conceivable angle.

With bad teams or bad lag though.. hoo boy.

I always hate it when I am a Krogan wanting to get my melee on but then a hack mission comes up and I am the only one hacking WTF MATE! Also disable 4 is tricky if you are trying to solo unless you have a cloak for a bit or a turret to help kick stuff around you. Escort is pretty easy same hassle as hacking where you have that one dude across the map then he falls and someone else leaves the escort to help them... not helping people not helping

Cloak doesn't help when you are by yourself (either doing a solo run or the last player alive).  Enemies will ALWAYS know where you are if you are the only active player.

4-count objectives should be one of the easiest but more often they are becoming the most annoying even when I'm with a team.  People constantly run over to me to supply cover and then I get overrun.  Last time that happened I had to waste all 5 of my rockets to clear the area and two medi-gels.
