I'm currently having a blast levelling up classes on Gold.  If you haven't done it, I recommend you give it a try. 
Join a Gold PUG.  Convince them not to kick you and have at it.

Suggested Loadout:
Javelin + Claymore (Clearly any top tier weapon will do)
Level 2 Amps
1 Rank in Grenades or Protection (Barrier, TA, etc)
1 Rank in Fitness or Passive (depending on rank 1 weapon bonus)
Grenade Gear V

Suggested kits: Slasher, Shaman, Kroldier, Krentinel, T-Sentinel, Demolisher, Ghost, Assguard, Cabal.

Nothing ground breaking, but I'm hoping to start a trend.

Been doin it since July. Posted thread where I convinced 3 other idiots to do it with me. We succeeded.

you forgot, the kroguard would do ok as well since it's not too different from the shaman anyway. and surprisingly, i found that the saboturian is also a good option for levelling up engies since he's got the jetboots for surviveability. more of my personal preference on the latter one though.

[Shampoohorn]

Aside from Weekend Challenges, I rarely ever promoted until last month, so it's a bit of a new thing for me. Only seen it in PUGs a few times, but once my URs started to level up it was clear the it was pretty easy to do.

I go into pugs assuming I have to carry...
Then its usually U/U/G
Then it'll be London/Condor/GlacierHazard/Collectors/Geth
What then? WHAT THEEEEEEN??!?


actually, I don't promote anyway .__.
will try if I have mah wingman.

[Wadmaasi]

It works just fine.

[Shampoohorn]

@segeri9:
Yeah the saboteur is probably better than the demolisher. He's got a solid weapon damage bonus. I have a heavy bias against homing grenades though.

I skipped the kroguard on purpose. Lift grenades and nightshade blades are better options. And the cabal's weapon passive and dodge is definitely better.

I dropped into a collector/vancouver/gold on round 2  with a lvl 1 Kroldier/Sabre X. First thing I saw was 2 skulls from people being eaten. Said "oh s***! This is gonna suck!" Proceeded to finish the game on top and extract. THATS WHAT!

Yup. My luck in PUGs is such that if I go down, we lose. I'm not trying level one in Gold unless I've got at least one friend in the lobby. PUGs, in general, suck.

I've done it a few times as well, I use a human soldier with a falcon loaded with incendiary rounds. Stick your one point into AR for the reload and sit back and stagger lock the enemies and set them up for fire explosions from your team mates.

Used to do it more, but lots of fools out there thinks it's "impossible" and kicks. So I haven't done it in a long time.

"Convince them not to kick you" being the quotable phrase here..

When I see the first kick, I say, "Don't worry, check out my big guns. I'll be fine." Either because of my Javvy X or my deep soothing voice, the kicks usually go away.

Meh.  I ended up just doing 2 bronzes first.  Fast and effective and relaxing.

[Eugenesys]

Been doing it for ages.

Anyone who tries to even kick me, usually gets kicked or does not equip gear....

Qfi and I have been doin it since I got my level x widow

[ryoldschool]

My friends do that with us all the time on gold ( and even platinum a few times ) when they were working on their promotions. However, they put on good consumables.

If I run into a level one in pugs I'll leave the lobby - I'll assume that you meant to try a silver and got the wrong difficulty.

[fallen_acolyte]

I usually press Triangle when I see them. How I love democracy

I can't carry a bad pug with a lvl 1 character. I'm not that good
And conversely have no wish to be carried myself. If I can't contribute properly, I'll level up in Silver.
Good on those that are good enough though.

[soulstriker09]

Actually I've been thinking this over for a while...
I don't think I'll be bringing the classes with no dodge.

Ghost is the one I'm looking at... The first point goes to stims?

Gold with level 1's is easy if you use consumables and pack a big ass gun.

[Aanorith]

I used to go level 1s on gold all the time before I stopped promoting. My normal setup is any tanky class, 1 point in fitness 1 in passives (1 point in fort, tech armor, etc if its one of those clasesses)
geth shotgun, level 3 amps and warp ammo versus reapers. Piece of cake.

Stims and Cloak. As long as you put one in stims, it doesn't really matter where you but the second point. But the 40% boost from Cloak is hard to ignore.

I just played a G/G/White game with a level two ghost (1/1/1/1/1) and got top score. Heh, including outscoring a 20th level Ghost.

Any lvl 1 nade class with a nade cap V gear used properly can wreck.
