Just wondering what the specific motivations are for developers designing some enemies with obvious "advantages" over other enemy factions?
Case in point. The phantom versus the banshee. Sure both of them want to extract your heart from your chest but given the choice I'm sure most would prefer the well designed phantom penetrating them deeply before death over hagface's lovely kiss of death.
Which enemies are your favorites and what specific design traits do you like about them?
This is a serious thread for serious answers, DO NOT spam it with the usual juvenile, idiocy PLEASE. Thanks.

Say what you will but the Banshee has a much better design.
She can also warp through walls and penetrate into places the Phantom simply would not go to.

Nemesis are the hottest enemy in the game.
-Built like a phantom yet have no object to chop off your manhood.
-Play hard to get and coy yet can be a screamer.
They're like a ME3MP version of a sexy librarian except with a monocle and sniper rifle.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.
-They can SHOOT it off from across the map.
-They never finish the job. Always coming and then leaving.
-Wouldn't their laser monocle be a health hazard?

favorite enemy -- husks. That's 'cause they don't shoot, are barely a threat, and easy to kill. Also - in single player mode these things seemed more lethal so being able to almost ignore them in MP seems like revenge.

My favorite are the Possesed Abominations. I like it how if you get too close, they explode all over you.

All I know is that Banshees freak me out. CrimsonN7 can attest to seeing this happen in-game a LOT recently - but Banshees just keep wanting to put their big blue balls in my face.
Seriously. Stop with the warp balls. It's really getting annoying.

Not to mention....just look at the critical hit areas of the Banshee. Phantom just has her stupid bubble.

I think Oni would concur. Thank you very much. <_<

Well...say what you want about Warp balls...
But the Geth Rocket troopers just flat out cheat...
Rocket payload after payload. And it always hits you in the face. No matter what position you start out in. I swear they coded it that way.

What's wrong with the Nemesis?!?
I'm really growing tired of the "elite players" (quotes intentional) thinking they know what's best and worst in the game.<_<
