Those that have Geth. That's why I always favour Collectors when asked.
Whats your toughest, most annoying and adrenaline inducing platinum wave?

Cerberus anything I hate but I especially Dragoons waves.
The other combo that bugs me is Banshees with Phantoms.

Actually there are no Scions on that wave, it's two banshees, two praetorians, two primes, and two collector troopers. It's still hell though.
Aaaah - must have been the Prime / Praetorian combo ... had to try and clutch it once and it's left a lasting mental scar! ![]()

Any wave where the rest of the team is dead and I have to solo the end of it... bonus if I have to also solo the last objective. That said, I don't play a lot of platinum, so...

Toughest...maybe collectors waves 4 and 8, or geth wave 9.
Most annoying...geth wave 2 or collectors wave 1.

Honestly, I find geth wave 10 tougher than collectors wave 10. I perceive phantoms as more of a threat :/
I also don't play platinum enough, or pay attention enough, to know which waves have which enemies. I play as the fury quite a bit, which for me means primes and hunters are the bane of my existence. Especially hunters with their cloak and stun lock are brutal for the AF throw combo. Phantoms are a joke though. I finally did my first successful platinum solo (this build @ White/Reaper), and I forget what wave it is where the hunters come out, but that was the worst part for me. I wiped on 8, 8, 7 my first three tries not so much because wave 7 or 8 was hard, but because at wave 4, 5, or 6, I forget which one, the hunters come out and I blew through gels/ops packs. On my successful extraction I breathed a sigh of relief when 8 came around, I still had 3 gels, and I knew I had nice easy phantoms to deal with.

Toughest :
Geth wave 9, Collectors wave 4 and 10 (this last one is just insane). On an open map like Condor, I would add Geth wave 2 for the three primes.
Most annoying
Reapers wave 9, for all the husks to kill for almost nothing in terms of budget depletion. I think I have used more gels in this wave than in wave 8, which is supposed to be the hardest (atlas, phantom and banshee at the same time on the map). I really hate this wave.
Most adrenaline inducing
Cerberus waves 7 and 9, Collectors wave 9.
Cerberus wave 2 is IMO too fast to be really "adrenaline inducing", but I get your point.

Yeah, I agree with loufi1528. All those Husk really make for a slow wave, indeed. It almost feels like the "Zombie Mod," with the amount of Husks that keep re-spawning ![]()

Not sure about "adrenaline inducing" but wave 4 collectors platinum is just moronic. Double banshee, double scion and 4 hit scan enemies, 1/2 of which will always be possessed, tossing out seeker plagues like they're going out of fashion.
Waste so much ammo and time shooting the stupid overpowered seeker plagues, with HUGE damage, HUGE AoE, HUGE detrimental effects, HUGE health and a TINY hit box so you waste a huge amount of ammo.

I usually avoid shooting them altogether. I find it's just a waste of time and bullet, they're gonna get ya anyway. And if they don't, then you focused too much on them and you're gonna die for something else. I avoid them like... Well, the plague XD But almost never shoot them on purpose.

I thought Wave 9 Reapers was the fun wave, like Wave 7 Collectors!
Well, wave 7 collectors has exploding abombs, carpet-bombing bombers and trolling troopers (lolcollectorwebs). It's a bit annoying, yes but atleast abombs cost 40 points each and bombers are worth 30. Since they all come to you anyway, it helps in depleting the wave budget quickly.
Wave 9 reapers, on the other hand has 3 husks - only worth 10 points each. And they always keep troll spawning near you forcing you for waste time on them instead of farming phantoms or hunters. Unless you can consistently find phantoms and hunters to kill, it is a boring wave, which in turn annoys me.

poor time management = annoying?

Wave 8 was the wave that was most annoying for me.
Could be just me, lol.
I get annoyed when a wave consumes a lot of time. Anything boring annoys me. ![]()
Speaking from a soloing perspective - any plat wave that is too repetitive or that takes up more than 8-10 mins annoys me (I am speaking abt solos on giant or white). Repititiveness bores me as well (3 husks that constantly keep spawning within a few feet from you bores me) - one reason why I am not a fan of husk mode lobbies.

that's probably the result when you "speedrun" all of your solos.Could be just me, lol.

I'm just gonna say it.....wave 1 'cause there's nothing more embarrassing than going down a few seconds into the match and looking like a potential burden to the team.
