So, a while back, Eric Fagnan posted that the Collectors were the easiest faction which was why they hadn't received any nerfs. Just wondering if  Bioware still holds that position?

I think Mr Fagnan said they were the easiest faction on silver which they arent....they are also not the easiest on gold ....reapers are easiest overall I think.

Reapers are by far the easiest... Collectors come from everywhere and preatorians + captains = death wish

He didn't say easiest, he said rate of success or most completed extractions on silver, probably because most people wanted something new to play against, but thought were too hard on gold and plat.

Based on information before scion damage was reduced and whatever other changes happened at the time.

That is too funny. Collectors are by far the hardest faction.

it's the type of thing that's obviously subjective based on one's playstyle or particular skills. Many think the Geth are a pain, for instance, but for me they will always be the easiest.

Whatwhatwhat?? Just about every collector enemy is a pain. Even the abomination. The tough guys - Scions, Pretorians... are really strong, can veeery quickly kill from afar and close-up, do sync kills... And the swarms, oh the pain! I HATE the swarms!! I'd say the easiest might depend a bit on what kit you're playing with, and definately playing a full blown soldier with a lot of life and only granade powers probably makes the collectors easier, but I would NEVER say without a context that the collectors are the easiest!! Has bioware ever said that?

Ahh, communication has come so far to the point where we used stupid meme's to describe how we feel. Neanderthal. 

ON TOPIC, I have no points on topic.

Hax health, power-killing, aim scattering bug swarm spams. Unbelievably powerful artillery fire that, were it not for health/shield gates, could two shot a Kroguard. Stagger grenade spam. Giant floating crabs with on-demand power immunity, butt lasers, and permanent sync-kill prime.

Yes. "Easiest".

Collectors were always harder to play against for one reason: they don't make any noise!

Any other faction you can hear coming so if you get flanked and the game goes FUBAR it's your and your teams fault.

Collectors on the other hand show up out of no where. You'd be killing a few mooks when you get meleed and immediately grabbed by a Praetorian. Also a Ravager has at least the common courtesy to let you know that it's going to mess you up while a Scion just shoots you out of nowhere.

The only other units in the game I could think of that have the same problem are Pyros and Dragoons.

IMO:
If we talk platinum, Cerberus is hands down the easiest
If we talk gold, Reapers are the easiest
Bronze & Silver, Geth is the easiest

NOWHERE are Collectors the easiest

If they're the "easiest," then someone who shall remain nameless needs to stop for a few minutes and think about what the definition of "easy" means, since he obviously went awry somewhere and needs to sit in the corner for a bit. Preferably on Firebase Jade.

No, that really is what he said, "easiest" based on their data. My interpretation was that the mission success rate might be the highest against Collectors, but this would be due to other factors eg readiness to use consumables, most people except the skilled players avoiding them, etc.

One word: Scions.

Result: Toughest faction by a million miles.

This. 

I'm pretty surprised that whatever data Eric Fagnan is looking at shows that the Collectors are the easiest. I know that personally, Collectors are the only faction that casues me discomfort; be it the Scions that nuke me from across the map and never ever let me return fire, to the posessed abominations in LZs that my teamates love to shoot in the groin when said scion has dropped my shields, or the Praetorian that negates pretty much anything I'm trying to do with my adepts. 

The easiest to me are Reapers. Nice and slow, with big fat bodies for me to fill with holes or blast with powers.

Collectors are definitely the hardest. Only due to scion grenade spam and pratoriean xray lasers and the stunlock/synckill.

Ah yes, the Collectors are the "easiest" faction.
We have dismissed this claim.

I don’t think there’s much argument to be had about them being the easiest. They can completely cripple power users (swarms), Praetorians are fast and hit hard as hell (and their beam attacks can ignore shield gate), Scions are like slower Primes with better artillery, their abominations are explosive and do mild incendiary damage, and any of their units can be possessed, making them an absolute nightmare to deal with. So yeah, hardest, not easiest, and we all know this.

Praetorian melee is way too fast of a stunlock, and their power immunity is frankly B.S. They just shouldn't be that fast if they also have that much health.

Hehe right! I figure if memes are good enough for Richard Dawkins, who am I to argue?
