If I'm any adept or a melee build, well, the Collectors can go screw themselves. My Broguard doesn't do so well against them. But whatever.

[Iron Star]

I like collectors. Sure, they are kinda hard, but that satisfying moment when you blow up a possesed abomination more than makes up for it. BOOM!

[Pugz82]

I like playing them in a pug game...it is like having 3 real time decoys. They keep dying and I keep killing.

/over here

Got the Collector Mastery 4 times now, while the others are 3> 

ps: And 80-90% of the times I use biotiics, Valkryrie, Huntress, AV, HA. So it's extra fun.

NO!!! THEY ARE NOT BALANCED!!! >

Magnet hand preatorian claws along with their melee that stunlocks you and you can't escape, ap ammo butt lazers, scions stop your shield regen for TOO LONG, the bugged combo damage, bees having way too much health and their explosion radius is too misleading (same goes for possessed abominations), captains and their CARs DCLXVI that do way too much damage... **** they are ANYHITNG BUT BALANCED.

I honestly prefer Geth to them... which is already saying a lot.

P.S.: Save your "they are not that hard" comments, I never said they are hard, they are just as easy as the other factions, but for me they are not even remotely fun to play against.

Best faction in the game honestly. A little too beefy on bronze, but otherwise, loads of fun.

[DragonRacer]

I really like playing them. They're so easy to accidentally get headshots on that even I feel like a boss. LOL

The only thing I don't like is holding my breath hoping they won't freeze my system. But otherwise, I enjoy playing them. Collector General was my first enemy banner unlocked.

People who don't know how to play against Collectors say the Collectors are overpowered, unfair and BS to somehow justify themselves as the good players they thought they were.

I wouldn't say overpowered either but as someone mentioned seeker swarms and plagues seem to have massive health and I just can't understand how a Praetorian can jump further than a Brute, which also confuses me how far they can jump as it is.

Considering all the problems I've been hearing from PSN players on this forum I think that's pretty impressive.

I liked shooting Collectors in the face in ME2, I like shooting them in the face in ME3.

The only thing I'd call BS on would be the Praetorian's world-piercing eye beams.

They are the toughest facton in my opinion and on some maps by A LOT. The units themsleves I don't find as cheesy as others but the numbers, instant spawning in range and such more than makes up for this. You for sure need a quality sniper or a couple of tank heavy hitters agaisnt them on some maps.

Two pug gold games the last few says, one geth on condor 3/4 extraction. Against collectors on condor, wave 4 wipe.

The minority elite players on here kick any factiosn asses so they are not a good basis for judgeing if the faction is over powered or not.

[Das Rouse]

I only enjoy them if I am on a good team. Not so much in a bad PUG. My fav classes to play against them are the Shadow and the Valkyrie. I have to admit, I hate Scions and unfortunately get "tunnel vision" sometimes.

[ToLazy4Name]

I find Collectors to be easy, but I can't fight them since they freeze my PS3 50% of the time.

[lightswitch]

We've been due for one of these threads for a few days now, I was wondering when it would show up.

Collectors are my favorite enemy. Not as irksome as Stunlock Hell, not as absurd as the Phantom Dance Company, not complete pushovers like Reapers.

I'm not sure what exactly you meant here. These two 'problems' shouldn't vary between factions. Every factions fields eight enemies at a time, and if units are spawning right on top of you it's because your team is too spread out and is forcing the spawns to come down in horrible places.

Unless I missed a memo somewhere?

What, you don't think they really closed Nicolas Cage into a... Ehm... Cage with bees? 

[GordianKnot42]

Be more fun if Prats didn't have that stupid FU barrier or spit Cluster Grenades. That's just cheap.

No they don't spawn right on top of you.  Praetorians are so fast and close the gap so quick that just after you polish one off another is in sight immediately and gets on you in seconds.  Scions with their range attacks spawn within striking range immediatley after you kill one.  Worse yet if they become possessed you are grenade fodder. 

Then there are the most over powered units in the whole game, abominations who spawn close, often in 3's, are tough to kill, will damage you when they get killed if close and will almost for sure cause a death if they grab you.

Interesting faction, except for the meleelocking Praetorians through solid walls. Plus Buttlaz0rs.

[jlee375]

I like their big heads

I dont like their buttlazors, seeker swarms, and collector captains.

Overall, the most challenging faction, but I do not mind them so much.

[ToaOrka]

They're hard because they're hard,
which is better than the cheating
Geth by a long shot.

That being said, the only bright-sides
I can see when playing them are "Well,
at least they aren't Geth," and "Well, I've
been meaning to work on my soloing
lately anyway."

[Donkamen]

I echo the "still better than geth" comments.

[Riot Inducer]

I really only have two real problems with the Collectors. The first being the sheer stupidity of giving a combat drone status enemy more health than a husk or rocket trooper then simultaneously giving them a hit box the size of a swarmer and then making the damn things dance around whenever they move. I am of course talking about the seeker swarms, complete idiocy those things are.

The second one is more general with the Collectors, without exception every single one of their units is mechanically superior to those of other factions and also usually have lower spawn budget costs than comparable units. So the Collectors are hard, I get it, and I'm ok with it, except that there is literally zero incentive for playing against an enemy that will be mechanically more difficult regardless of your difficulty choice. Imo Collectors need to offer higher rewards than the other factions to make dealing with their difficulty spike worthwhile.
