So my friends and I have been playing a lot of geth gold lately.
What is the ccomparative resilience of the hunters vs. other enemy units? They seem extremely tough to take down, more so than pyros. They are far more difficult to stagger and fire the GPS rapidly and accurately. After a good 12 matches today, I'm ready to declare them as pesky as the bombers. Has anyone else had similar thoughts or experiences fighting them of late?

Geth Hunters move much quicker when cloaked on Gold difficulty.

They dodge, are fairly quick for geth and can shoot you with their shotgun even when stunned/staggered. The pyros are easy targets unless they spawn right on top of you.

I personally do not find them hard to take down, what i do find difficult is always seeing them, probably an age thing, and their GPS is brutal, they travel in packs on gold so when they get you in a tight spot with bombers, it`s not a good situation.

Right on that. I had one right in the wheelhouse for a electric smash attack (Phoenix vanguard) and he dodged...or phased...or something...and it missed him. Insane!

I find a single Hunter to be very easy to kill, even when they flank me. Two or three Hunters is a different story... as a group their ROF goes up fast enough to kill me faster than I can kill them.
The most annoying defense mechanism they have is cloaking right before you lock onto them for a melee or a projectile power.. especially Krogan heavy melee. The big fella just flies right by the Hunter who starts unloading in your back. On console it can be difficult to turn around in time (no look sensitivity setting).

Chain Overload works okay for the Drones, but the hunters, well, seem immune to anything except diligence.

Basically immune to powers at range. Was doing a Geth Gold solo with a SI earlier, they were the bane of my game.

Bombers are easier to handle than the damn Hunters. When there's a pack of hunters, it's high-tailing it from there.

Yes, Geth suck overall. I just refuse to play them if I'm the host.
Pretty much everything stuns, rocket-spamming rocket troopers, etc

Dat hop. I still find pyros to be much more difficult though. And bombers.

Lol it's like its programmed that if they shoot, it hits you, I don't know how many times I've staggered them and they shoot me with their weapon pointed at the sky and I get hit >.>

How do you spec/loadout the kit? Sounds interesting for a solo.

They are not difficult.
They are broken.
And that's annoying.

Why you put rank 6 in Energy drain? Phasic rounds defeats shield gate... you don't need to fully strip their shields. Then you can take rank 4 fitness

Sometimes they (while cloaked) just walk through my GT's flamer without a single scratch. Geth hunters are damn hackers, Bioware needs to ban them I say...

Immune to electric smash and flamer? Glad to see we're not alone in our battles with them!

Honestly I don't need fitness on this guy (especially against Geth). Also, since none of the other amps are useful on him, I take CM IV. So why not max out ED.

If they are cloacked.. that means they are fully shielded.
and shield comes with its own benefit to withstand certain damages better.. especially without target lock.
They can be tough from time to time.. especially since it seems like staggered hunter will shoot you back with 98% chance as long as you are withint the range.
