The (Geth Prime's) combat drone is a joke.

Hard cover lets you go unstaggered. So why not use that instead? In Soft cover I might actualy get staggered... Plus I usualy play Paladin or Human Soldier, so I can recharge my shields almost at will.


I just find hard cover sticky and annoying. I prefer the mobility offered by soft cover.

I play a lot of different classes.

If you are lagging a bit, trying to go into hard cover will be negated by stunlock. Therefore I don't even bother.

I dunno, play enough against them on gold and you learn to anticipate it almost, and then you can start avoiding it.


Exactly, there's no issue at all, not on silver nor gold, if just need to learn the mechanics and prioritize if needed.
Oh and let's not forget the many crowd control skills we have ourselves.

 you dont play gold, according to your n7hq.


From all maps he played like 50 waves on Gold ! #LOL :o

So after months of people complaining about Geth stunlock, how it was cheap, frustrating and made the Geth very annoying to play... the mensa candidates on the design team thought that it would be a good idea to... add MORE stunlock? And stunlock of the very WORST type too? The combat drone's incinerate power will stop you mid-revive, and the precious stunlock immunity you received from running or performing an action can also be taken away at a moment's notice by the attack.

Hey, it's the same bunch of people who thought that the Atlas didn't have enough health, and that the underpowered aspect of it was the magic missile.

There is a reason, i have Geth mastery and cerberus done only once.

Reapers about to complete for the third time (bloody husk points).

Collectors, did them twice, and the scion/praetorian bugs made me ditch them.

Basically, i only face reapers on silver and gold.

Bronze i dont care.

I feel your pain, OP. But in spite of all complaints about geth cheapness, we are viewed as a vocal minority by devs. One of them wrote that only "some" don't like this mechanic. I guess Bioware only plays bronze.

They also made that kroguard who had full stun immunity, gets staggered by prime's drone.

dunno i thought the bombers were far more annoyiung than the primes drones, at least the drones move slowley or not at all allowign you to target them a lot easier, the stagger off geth in general is idiotic, and if your have 3 or more troopers fireing then your going to get your ass handed to you from there stunlock as well, i played a few gold matches since the patch against geth but they never got very far mostly because the chars in the team wernt bat's or kro's and we got stunlocked ot death durign an objective wave, had the same problems on silver as well on certain maps its just not possible to play the hide behind cover thing, not that that works anyway given that everything moves like lightening ....

Stunlock sucks period. I hate it. The addition of the drone's incinerate and the bombers are downright annoying, don't really like how everyone's solution is an arc grenade. Only three classes have that power. My thing is, the drone should still be able to shoot but take the damn stagger off. That's what is annoying about them and increase the time between tazes on the bomber. I hate it. Only thing that satisfies me is watching them burn with the flamer.

yeah, there is no such way because there is no stunlock. Unless you want to be stunlocked of course

The amount of stagger you take from his attack is just ridiculous and I was baffled by the design decision when they first arrived. I do however feel that I'm adjusted to the new Geth now, especially after last weeks nerf and I play them quite a bit although sometimes at my teammates frustration/expence.


This is what I was trying to get at. Yes, they make it necessary to adapt how you play against geth, but once you adjust it makes it quite a bit easier.

One thing, for example, is that geth primes force you into soft cover at all ranges, like Atlases and unlike (mostly) banshees and praetorians. Their turrets and drones become priority targets, meaning you can't focus all your fire on the primes, so it ups your situational awareness etc


Hard cover lets you go unstaggered. So why not use that instead? In Soft cover I might actualy get staggered... Plus I usualy play Paladin or Human Soldier, so I can recharge my shields almost at will.

Hard cover helps, alot, but I avoid it if I can. I lose too much situational awareness in cover and with the units in this game spawning right behind you or sneaking up on you in complete silence it's not going to work out too well. You also have the Bombers to worry about. They were designed to force people out of cover, along with the Dragoons and If you spend a lot of time running in and out of hard cover you lose a lot of time that should be spent killing enemies.

Yeah, private profile on BSN. 

One can't be more pathetic. Actually I counted his finished Gold Waves on all maps. It's like 50.

I can't believe this is even a debate.
Stunlock sucks as does that cursed geth stunlock drone of doom.
Even for kroguard and batguard it sucks on gold!

Didn't know the drone can actually stunlock, as for me it just staggers. 

But anyway, as far as I know it wasn't a new addition, just a bug fix. The drone was supposed to stagger from the start but didn't (is there actually anything in the game that did work from the start...?).

Did we really need this fix? Certainly not. Does it make the Geth worse than they were before? Neither. 
I can live with it but I understand if people find it annoying and want it gone. Even though insulting the devs isn't really the way to go...
