I knew this day would come... but I didn't want to beleive it.
Now I come to BSN in hopes that your wonderful knowledge of Grinding husks can be taught to me.=]

Reapers Silver Wave 3

Reapers Gold Wave 1

Both work. I personally did Silver, but Gold might not take as much time if you can handle the abuse of a Gold solo.

Don't forget, kill ONLY Husks. Don't kill anything else, or (for Gold 1 only) you'll screw up the spawn budget.

Oh, and use a Vanguard, Shadow, or Turian Havoc so you can get around faster. Or shoot 'em, either works.

Lucky you, I am at 16/18. Guess which two I need. Here is a hint, both are the same and they give "shoulder massages of death".

I was just thinking that ME3 seriously lacks in the husk hordes, 2-3 at a time, is that all? I remember ME1 and ME2 having massive hordes of husks that relentlessly come after you. Made me almost soil my pants.

Reapers are the easiest faction now. Easy way to increase the difficulty: increase the spawn rate of husks 3-5 times more. Maybe make them do that mini-nova thing they did in ME1 too? :-)

I am at 84% on husk points 3. Still don't feel a need to grind it yet.

I haven't been actively searching out Geth games and I am farther along on that than I am on Reapers.

With the recent XP buffs I think Gold is better. Take a BroGuard or KroGuard, pick random for a map and then kill nothing but Husks using biotic charge (25% more XP than weapons or melee).  You can rack up a lot of Husk points in waves 1 and 2.

I did 1st 3 waves of reaper silver glacier with a kroguard over and over and over and over and over....

You get a handful killing just husks but honestly it takes too damn long to bleed the wave. The real moneys in wave 3 when you get 5 minutes of nonstop killing (ignore objective). Just kill everything all 3 waves. I was getting 12-15k Of husks every 9 minute match or so.

Solo the first two waves of Gold with a Kroguard... it'll give you husk points pretty quick. I wish I'd heard about the idea before I was almost done with Husk Points 3, but at least you can be spared the same suffering.

Silver wave 3 farming (leave objective to rot til last second)

Another attempts to scale the mountain! Will he make it, or fall into a deathly boredom from which he never recovers? Taking all bets!

I'm 4k away from Marauder 3, the last one before all that's left is Husk 2 and 3. The Kroguard Unknown/Reaper/Gold wave one and two solos have begun. I did just knock out 25k Husk points in 9 minutes in the first and 30k in 11 minutes in the second, though, so it shouldn't be too much of a grind.

I just completed the Reaper challenge for the first time :) Completed the Collector challenge twice, but still waiting for Cerb (damn guardians ;).

Always play gold+ and cycle between Cerb, Reapers and Collectors so the number of games played against each faction are pretty much the same (I try to avoid fighting Geth though).

Husks weren't so bad. I did the one where you kroguard silver waves 1-3.
Wait until you have only nemesis left on the Cerberus challenge (farm waves 1-3 gold)

This! Use Random/Reapers for a 25% XP increase and play on Gold (first two waves), it will be faster than Silver.
Another option, if you feel like it, Wave 1 on Platinum spawns 2 Husks a once, they give even a little bit more XP than on Gold, plus the 'spawn pool' is larger (900 vs 600). But the first wave also spawns two Banshees (and Brutes and Cannibals), so watch out for them ofcourse. But if you kill only Husks you can kill about 50 of them in the first wave alone.
Second wave also spawns 2 Husks, but also Marauders and Ravagers so that's a bit more dangerous.

I'm with you. All I need is husks as well. I will run straight past two brutes, a ravagener, and twin banshees just to kill a single husk, lol.

Be a man/woman play Gold like the rest of us and stay at 97%. I have used rockets to take out Guardians before somebody else could get them. I may very well get the Nomad banner twice before I complete either Cerberus or Reapers.

Unknown Reapers Platinum. Husks spawn the many now :) Kill them over and over and nothing else, they seem like an endless spawn. Good luck
