cerberus, atlas couldn't be synch killed, plus phantoms and turrets

[AW_FC_1986]

Collectors, because A-bombs would explode in every Phantom's and Dragoon's face. Possessed Praetorians would deal with Atlases within seconds and snyc every meleeing Phantom. Possessed Scions would deal with a Nemesis and turrets quick. Would be awesome to watch

Damn, that sounds great. Can't we mod this?

[Ardat-Yakshi Master Race]

collectors....

 

 

 

IF going other than collectors.... Reapers would just dominate lore wise, but in multiplayer, hmmm... The geth and cerberus at the very least have playable equivalents of a good number of units and therefore abilities COULD be gauged, along with the fact that all geth CAN be turned against enemies as well as the atlas.... We can guess that phantoms' and dragoons' abilities would at least be guessed as similar to shadow and frmr cerberus characters, obviously however without certain abilities. Imagine what happens when a shadow runs up to a banshee or brute...

 

I would guess that reapers would win simply because banshees would laugh at phantoms and ravegers would rip atlases to shreds... This however could be a close one as nemeses could probably rip apart ravagers down range but would suddenly get overwhelmed by the sudden assault by mauraders and cannibals. Engineers would be a pain with their turrets clearing these flanking enemies as well...

 

Actually, the geth could win this because pyros ruin everything, bombers would make nemeses a joke along with mauraders. Primes essentially ruin the day of any phantom and banshees could get overwhelmed by sudden pyro death squads and rocket troopers.... it would be interesting...

Man I have this weird sense of deja vu like we had this exact same conversation last year.

 

But I am too lazy to search for what I remember, so whatever.

 

I vote Collectors, assuming Praetorians cannot be synch killed. Their OP wallhax lazors would defeat every other faction.

Collectors. Scions and Praetorians just have too high a health pool for the other enemies and they do a fuckton of damage with their attacks. Scion's blast would annihilate most enemy units in one shot.  Praetorians are actually fast moving enemies as well and their eye beams would cut an Atlas in half. Let's not even mention that the Collector Captains could probably decimate most Cerberus infantry with their burst fire. Collectors do more damage and have higher health pools than all other factions.

I was wondering. Since PC has mods to where you can essentially sabotage anything, could someone make a video of Sabotaged Praetorian fighting an Atlas or Prime and so on?

Except if Engineers were lucky to set up Turrets and the other factions did not know how to deal with them by not having any aggro mechanics to them. 

[JRandall0308]

That is a good point, but any stray damage will eventually cause the Turret to die.

(And does anyone know the mechanics of this? Sometimes I hit a Turret with like Throw or something and it doesn't die until midway through the next Wave.)

Collectors. The swarm of crabs and flees will make the world itch!

They're on a timer. If they take damage from a source then time out the last damage will get credit for the kill.

Possessed Abombs would take care of the turrets.

Geth On PC

 

Collectors on Consoles.

[PatrickBateman]

Definately geth, they are by far the most challenging faction on platinum, ain't a crab or Atlas in the world that can manage triple platinum primes.

Most enemies have stagger resistance though especially bosses, IE an atlas cannot be staggered for a certain time after being staggered once. You take that out of the geth's arsenal and they're toast.

Triple Scions vs Triple Primes

I am betting on the Primes.

10/10 would spectate!

I don't have video but Mgamerz hosted a game like that for a couple of us. It was hilarious. I think Kobean was also there but I'm not sure.

No, what we need is a true "Faction Thunderdome"!

Yes, mgamerz did that and I played that mod. Collectors were easily the best enemies to sabotage. 

 

His mod increased the damage done by sabotaged enemies by 100% but even then, a sabotaged praetorian is better than a sabotaged atlas, a sabotaged scion better than a prime and so on.

 

For example, when I was testing these, a poss. praetorian took down an atlas while still having most of its armor in a 1v1 battle.

However, an atlas couldn't do it. The first time I sabotaged the atlas, it lost to the possessed crab. The second time, atlas won but it was down to a few bars of armor.

Prime doesn't stand a chance against praetorian at close range because the latter can keep the prime stagger locked for long periods of time.

 

If that 100% damage boost weren't there, collectors would have still won but would take longer. But they'd still win.

[Darth Volus]

I am betting on the Primes.

 

A Scion on Platinum does 3360 damage per shot and has a 60 ROF

 

A Prime does 966 damage per shot at 70 ROF
