You play on host or off?

Probably on-host more... I mean, you get used to fighting phantoms but those turrets are just ****** evil. 

[Deerber]

So, so true. The 2nd worst unit in the game after Primes? Tie between Rocket Cheaters and Hunters. Next worst? Tie between Bombers and Pyros. 

 

I'm also sort of surprised so many more people pick Phantoms than Engineers/Turrets from Cerberus... 

 

I love engineers. They're even easier than troopers to kill, and they're nice enough to blow up their turrets after they die... I love them

 

Phantoms... It depends on the lag, really XD

Nothing...nothing is worse than phantoms in this game....

 

Turrets don't have DR, they don't sync kill or melee, they are deployed in the same places.....so, as long as you don't roam around in the open, they are easy (well, easy mode compared to phantoms)

I have played this game so much its just second nature to always look at the "turret spots" as I am roaming by to make sure none are up

Well, obviously this isn't literally true- there's the Geth faction after all... Maybe you meant as far as Cerberus goes.

With the right weapons/powers phantoms are 100x easier to kill than turrets, particularly depending on the map, and its the objective waves that are killers with turrets- its not that you don't know where they may be, its that you often don't have time to mess around going around them, or doing so is way more of a pain in the butt (when they put 3 of them right next to the device, for instance). 

 

But in any case, all this is pretty clearly player-dependent (a few people did pick turrets) and I can at least understand why people hate phantoms (they are some triflin' little beeches), I was just saying that I'm (mildly) surprised that phantoms are winning the most hated cerberus unit by such a large margin, given turrets' (horrid and largely deserved) reputation. In any case, neither one of them comes anywhere close to even the least of the geth.

Sure, I just meant engineers because they're the bastards that deploy those evil little shits...

No, I mean in the entire game. Geth can be annoying but there are only 3-4 geth waves that are really annoying. Cerberus are far more annoying than geth IMO. I'd rather play geth than cerberus pretty much any day.

I'm admittedly no math whiz, but this isn't quite computing- when I total the really annoying geth waves I keep coming up with 11.

+1.

They sure love their turrets...

 

...perhaps unhealthily so...

On topic:

 

Cerberus: I actually am torn between choosing phantom or engineer. The former can sure be annoying, but the latter is just so sneaky... lets go with phantoms. I just have much more fun killing engineers. Especially when I'm playing as an engineer myself.

Reapers: Marauders. No competition there. Yeah, Ravagers can be annoying, their goo even more so. But marauders just take the cake.

Geth: Hunters. The amount of crap they pull is not comparable to any other unit and considering we're speaking of geth, that's saying something.

Collectors: all of them!!!

[ImDedicatedToMyApologies]

I bet more have died by them than boss and mini-boss enemies.

...until you meet praetorian.

I don't mind turrets, either. They're so easy to avoid. And even if you bump into one, you can just run past them like they're not there - the only problem is when they sneak up on you. Or, well, more like when you don't notice them XD

Agreed. And trolling turrets by running circles around them never really gets old. (you may be able to pump out 1000000000 DPS but you can't turn around faster than my drell can run in a circle!) 

[Lux Caelum]

Collectors: Those Swarms, or whatever they are called. They are harder to kill than a Scion. Srsly BW?

Geth: Primes and their drones. Trolling bastards. Hate Hunters too, cheating bastards.

Cerberus: Goons. They cant decide if they want to be staggered or not. Armored unit that moves so fast? Cmon

Repers: None realy, I like creapers - they are big, dumb and cannot dodge sh1t.

A goal for the next match I play: try this! Seriously, I wanna try this.

 

I'm more likely than not to fail it, but I want to see m drellguard with Claymore try this before blowing the damn thing to oblivion.

I'm not sure what the threshold is, but with Fitness maxed (for speed obv) and AM3 its really not hard, just face the turret and strafe in a circle and watch it try to keep up. Another fun one, as Deerber can attest, is light meleeing a turret indefinitely with the Slayer since his DR is so high it can't hurt you as long as you keep chaining those light melees.

You need to charge once in a while, though, I think. You're only invulnerable for as long as you keep up charge DR and light melee. If the charge DR expires, I think you start taking damage, although still not much...

Geth wave 8 gold is fun ... there is no fun Cerberus wave; every Cerberus wave has some p*ss irritating BS that makes me just want to Alt-F4.

[grailseeker91]

For me

 

Reaper: If melee ravager with the goo elsewise none

 

Cerberus: Tis a tie between the phantom and turret. I don't think any commentary necessary

 

Geth: Hunters with an honorable mention going to prime turrets

 

Collector: Scion

Yeah you're right, its the DR from BC (which lasts what, 5 seconds or something?) as well as LM- my bad. I kind of hope my error of omission got someone murdered by a turret... 

[q5tyhj]

Geth wave 8 gold is fun ...

Well, its better, to be sure... "Fun" is going a bit too far, I think.

Hahaha. Damn, I should have stayed silent

Fun is subjective. I do find w8 of geth gold pretty fun (most of the times).

 

In all honesty, I don't mind geth except for 4 waves (1,2,9 of plat and 9 of gold). Other waves can get annoying at times but that can be said about other factions too. I do find geth fun from time to time (definitely beats fighting Cerberus)

 

I used to hate geth a LOT, but not anymore. I never gave them a chance before - after playing geth quite a bit, I've started to like them.

I'm sort of the other way around- used to play Geth alot, didn't mind them and actually preferred them (at least to Collectors and Cerbies) for a long time, I've just gotten sick of their nonsense as time went on I guess. 

[RanetheViking]

Reapers: Ravagers.

Cerberus: Phantoms. and Dragoons. and smoke grenades.

Collectors: Seeker Swarms. and butt lazers.

Geth; f**kin Hunters. and Primes on Platinum.
