banshee and prime of course are very tough enemies, imo prime only because of his magic homing laser, rank 20 geth turret, and stunlock. Banshee has nova, warp, and sync kills, which are annoying but banshees can be kited easier than primes. stunlock is pretty much a ranged sync kill imo.

however, the most annoying thing to me in the entire game (that isn't geth cause they blow away the competition) would be groups of phantoms.

Primes. Those a-hats have the ability to set up turrets anywhere and a stunlocking gun that can nail players from across the map. As long as you stay out of CQC range, a Banshee is about as dangerous as a swarmer.

Primes. Banshees honestly aren't that big a deal so long as you keep your distance.

Primes are a bigger threat to a team, but Banshees are harder to take down and the panic they cause when they close in on team-mates make them a bigger priority. The teleport-spam and synch-kills don't help.

I've never had half as much trouble with Primes. Even when playing non-tech classes, they're generally simple enough to deal with.

Depends entirely on your class and weaponry. A Biotic can take down a Banshee within 20 seconds but takes longer to down a Prime. For a Tech class it's exactly the other way round.

I was going to say Banshee but once I thought about it I came across this gem.

Geth Primes for me. Incredibly tough, spawn turrets that down you in less than a second, snipe you with exploding lasers and loves rushing you with his army of geth pyro bodyguards.

Banshees often reach your squad before her allies (teleporting quickly), giving you a bit more time to deal with her. Primes walk slower than the other geths so they get to snipe you while you are distracted.

This. Just let the Banshee Leeroy Jenkins her way over there, then proceed to have the team kick her ass. Most of the time, once their barriers are down, they turn into walking bulletsponges.

Primes, on the other hand, are the trolls of the three boss units. Think going around that corner will save you? Think again. Think you're safe 2 rooms away? Surprise turret. Going into cover to avoid those pulse cannon shots? Trololol.

Banshees are harder for me. Especially when having to deal with more than one at the same time.

For me it's Geth Primes because of their pulse cannon's stagger factor, as well as annoying Geth Turrets that come up at the most unexpected times when you're fighting against them. I'm fine with fighting against Banshees as well as there's nothing else to worrying about while running away while they're charging, and you can dodge their homing death balls.

Primes. If it's just me and a Banshee left on a wave, I can easily avoid taking any damage.

Primes... not so much.

(usually play as human engineer)

Just finished a match against Geth a while ago. My human engineer + talon with cryo ammo laughed at the Geth.

Although, I would still say Primes, purely for the bendy shots. Totally not fair.

If you included Brutes though, I'd go with them, those guys can be ninjas. If you don't see them, they can really screw you over.

This. You can run from primes but they'll always find a way to shoot you.

Primes, Banshees are annoying but not hard to take down. Primes keep spamming their turrets without cooldowns and shooting you with their stun-shots. That is hard.

Sustained heavy weapon = primes, because of stunlock and turret spam

High powered single shots = banshees Their irrational jumping loves to let your shot noreg or miss for no reason

Phantoms. Primes are just walking targets and Banshees aren't all that scary to be honest.

Phantoms move around at the fastest rate and are really small so they're hardest to hit.

So yeah. I'm taking option C.

Still hate Ninja Brutes.


Phantoms aren't so bad. An AA/SI team works really well together. Stasis, then snipe. :devil: Or stasis and then shoot the c*** out of them if you're alone, or use warp/throw on a stasised phantom. Also, using the Fury, drop their shields a bit by shooting them, then heavy melee/dark channel.

OP - would have to be banshees. They just look seriously scary, and their movement is unpredictable. Plus those magnet hands. Get me every time. Sigh... :crying:

Banshees, they force you out into the open fast while their barriers are up. You can corner shoot a prime and it moves slow. Can use a prime as TB or EB epicenter to take out it's entourage.

Banshees. I have the most fun with them but they take a while to take down.
