I dislike the slow guys, so Geth Jugg and Krogan Warlord are out of the question.

 

Ideally the character has decent or better durability with some sort of 'panic button' to minimize deaths.  For example
Turian Ghost w/ his Stimulant Packs

Turian Cabal w/ her Biotic Focus shield restoration evolution

Alliance Infiltration Unit w/ her Defense Matrix

Salarian Infiltrator w/ his Cloak + Energy Drain

 

etc

When I was a newbie there was no Platinum.

[BurningBlood]

I don't remember what class I used the very first time I attempted platinum; it was a GIP, I was only in the match for about 20 seconds, and I had already died 5-6 times, so I quit.  With severe post-PlatinumCollectorJadeDevices-stress.

 

The first kit I successfully took to platinum was a Widow HMI.  Next (can't remember the exact order) were hurricane HME, incendiary CSR SI, incendiary PPR Jugg.

Salarian Engineer + Saber

 

I remember Stikman said the DPS was too low and we wouldn't stand a chance. He was wrong, but we got smoked because we were scrubs.

[LemurFromTheId]

Geth Engineer was probably my primary go-to kit.

[Caldari Ghost]

Reeger AIU

[Pheabus2009]

Mainly SE w/ Scorpion in the early days, but I started as a lolAIU w/ some Quarian shotgun .

[FasterThanFTL]

I think it was the Human Sentinel.

[Dunmer of Redoran]

Asari Commando was the first character I extracted platinum with. I saved my teammates from being phantom stabbed quite a few times by using stasis.

My very first platinum game was as a level 1 human engineer. I had just promoted and was looking for a bronze game but got dumped into a platinum game instead. I see irony in this because my very first game ever was a gold game as a N7 1 engineer. I was looking for a bronze game then, too.

 

I guess technically you could still call me a platinum noob since I only have 3 extractions credited to me on my manifest and even if you counted the ones that came before the challenge system, I still probably don't break double digits. It's not like I'm incompetent at platinum. I just don't enjoy it. I also have no solos whatsoever logged beyond the minimums required for the banner. Again, I just don't enjoy soloing.

[Jeremiah12LGeek]

I used a Shadow.

 

I did okay, in that I didn't really go down. I recall scoring around 100K or so. Of course, first place scored about 300K.

 

 

 

Some people might remember the thread about that.

Turian Soldier and Turian Sentinel. Only use me fat turians.

I played my first Platinum game as a Huntress Infiltrator, when the host suddenly decided to up from Gold to Platinum for no reason and I just went **** it, let's YOLO.

 

Got the highest score

GI, AIU, KroSol, BatSol, Batdept, Destroyer (legitimately, not MG'ing), GE.. actually didn't really use the Jugg much on Plat early on, and I was never a huge fan of the TGI. Definitely made frequent use of Repair Matrix BS in the early days though. 

[Homey C-Dawg]

My first plat was Human Engineer. Still a great class for plat imo.

[Learn To Love Yourself]

I went GI & Destroyer the first few times I did Plat.  Then I played a lot of Fury, as well as Human Soldier.

Then I ran into a group of dudes who just rushed through Platinum in a Biotic squad, which was a lot of fast-paced domination.

 

Ahh, good times.

[DemiserofD]

First plat ever was with a level 20 human female vanguard. It went pretty much like this:

 

CHARGE-Die.

*revived by teammates*

 

CHARGE!-Die.

 

*revived by teammates.*

CHARGE!-Die.

 

*revived by teammates.*

 

Repeat x30. I just couldn't figure out why the enemies were doing so much damage xD. I was also looking for a bronze game, but was too stupid to not search for anything available  

Honestly those teammates were the best guys ever, they revived me no matter what. I'm pretty sure I'm the reason they ended up failing, actually xD. You've never seen someone log out from embarrassment so fast.


As for actual platinum characters? Turian Sentinel is a solid choice, and Talon Merc works just fine too. Honestly, I haven't played that many platinum games. I just find Gold to be more entertaining usually, though I've been getting to the point that even they're pretty much a carry lately. A symptom of maxing most of my manifest, I think. It's amazing what an extra 25% on your guns really does.

[Marksmad is waving goodbye]

HSent.

[RanetheViking]

I was lucky (or unlucky) when using the Valkyrie one time and the host sneakily changed it to Platinum.

I was very happy (and very surprised) though at her ability to wreck things and survive.

To this day she's my go to girl for Platinum.

[Teabaggin Krogan]

Krosol, krosent,the Valkyrie, flamer trooper and turian sentinel were my staples when I was a platinum blueberry.I realised the greatness of the huntress a bit later on seeing a friend kick ass with it!
I mostly played support when I first started out by setting up combos, flanking enemies and by trying to not go down a lot as I didn't have all that many weapons unlocked and my dps was abysmal!
