Mirror Shepards at the Armax Arsenal Arena. N7 weapons, all powers stagger you, almost impossible to stagger them, and all have armour instead of health.

[PatrickBateman]

In game it's the Collectors.

Irl it's Biovar.

[Mission_Scrubbed]

The Geth did nothing wrong.

Pardon..?

 

Are you engaging a phantom in melee range? She's going to swing her sword at you and stagger you.

Yeah, big deal. There are dozens of ways to deal with her. Sometimes you need to face your problems/fears head on.

 

 

For the cheesiest enemies I'll stick with Primes and Possessed Crabs. While soloing though, 9 out 10 medigels were lost to Possessed Collector mooks.

[MeetYourNanny]

They are the 2nd worst for me.

bugs i can take care of but staggering space dildos thats the stuff rage quits are made of

[GI3007]

Collector Captains.

They can hit you from across the map running sideways, start shooting you even when they can't see you, and they must have drill rounds too because I saw one kill me shooting through a wall.

They are deadly accurate and pack incredible damage

That's because you try to get too close with them !

well i am a gentle person and i like to share my love with those tosters

[TopTrog]

Geth, and it´s not close. **** Geth. Unless I was lucky enough to select QME or Warlord - then playing them becomes an almost cathartic experience for me  . 

 

The Oscar for "most annoying single unit" goes to Dragoons, though. I wonder if there is a mod around that makes it possible to grab them ?

I used to let dragoons bother me. Then I discovered the joys of rage-missiling. Goons are best taken out one at a time at point blank rage, just so you can count the gibs.

You should all be pointing fingers at the Cerberus. Are you engaging a phantom at long range? She's going to shoot you three times, and never miss. The first shot will destroy your shields. The second will take you down to one bar of health. The last shot will kill you dead.*

 

Are you engaging a phantom in melee range? She's going to swing her sword at you and stagger you. You can struggle and cry, but no matter how furiously you mash the roll button, that sword is going through your gut.

 

Dragoons are just marauders that use whips instead of elbows.

 

Turrets do the combined damage of 10 Hurricane X's with Warp rounds XIX.

 

Nemesis can't ever make up their ****** mind on where to take cover.

 

And Atlas? Eh, they're alright I guess.

C'mon this was a funny post. Can this brave toaster get a few more likes? It's not like we don't have an unlimited supply now

[HamleticTortoise]

Was discussing with HamleticTortoise and Emexia last week. I think we agreed that of all of the cheating scum enemies we are up against, Geth are the biggest offenders and Reapers merely cheat most of the time instead of all of the time. So I would group them as:

1. Geth: Hunter and Arrugla Troopers being the biggest offenders
2. Derperus: Because Phantoms, also stupid nemesises being harder to hit than quarks
3. Collecturds: see Seeker swarms, grabby crabs, also possessed scion instant teleporting MIRVgrenades
4. Rippahs: Magnet Hands, marauders warping time and space to elbow you despite being hit with 4000 bullets, Warp, and a Boston cream pie all at once
 

 

I might have agreed that off-host, geth might be the faction that most obvioulsy cheats uses game mechanics cleverly, but that doesn't mean I put them in first place overall. In my heart, that dubious honour belongs to Cerberus without a doubt.

Phantoms fun on-host DR, amazing friend-or-foe smoke grenades, atlas rockets, turrets that survive multiple waves, a gold wave with 6 sync-killers, and the list goes on and on and on

Even though it can be trivialized by a number of strategies, it remains IMO the most rage-inducing faction for the number of ways in which it can punish you even when you don't make mistakes (unlike collectors*, which actually excel at punishing them)

 

*this obviously doesn't apply on PS3

QFT. I don't need grabbing though, I prefer electrocuting, stabbing, face-punching, slowly burning, headshotting them. Slowly draining their life with AF is somewhat dangerous, but if you can pull it off, it's well worth the risk IMO. Missiles are too quick and clean a death

[GruntKitterhand]

I play Gold, off-host, almost exclusively. Geth, man, Geth. Primes are....hmmm.... I genuinely have no words. The one joy I get from seeing so many Warlords in pugs is that at least I know the Primes should get some of what they're due. It's their turrets that get me mostly, but I just hate them. Hunters without a Geth Scanner are a royal pain in the hoop too, obviously, but it's mainly the Primes that get to me.

 

As for the others, I've always loved playing Reapers. Magnet hands, people's elbows, swarmers, goo and deathswipes are all made up for by the incomprehensible stupidity of Cannibals. I don't solo much, but Cannibal-rich waves can be absolutely hilarious. And in general I prefer playing melee characters - there's absolutely no more enjoyable faction to melee against. All those people who play against Geth to avoid sync-kills are really missing out.

 

Cerberus are the faction I find toughest overall (wave 7, anyone?) but that's just because they are tough. I don't see them as particularly cheap. Off-host, Nemeses give me more trouble than Phantoms. The thing about Phantoms is this: I never met one who didn't 'benefit' from a point-blank Claymore to the face 

 

And Collectors? Well, I'm mostly on PS3, so that affects my view of them a bit. But if it wasn't for the freezes I'd probably regard them much more highly because I've had both hilarious and epic games against them. Seeker Swarms really **** me up more than buttlazers or Scion attacks. And we all know the potential destruction those possessed abombs can cause, right? Glorious. 

 

TL:DR F*CKING GETH!!!

[Darth Volus]

All of them are more or less broken, but Geth are the most infuriating, followed closely by Collectors. 

 

The enemies were clearly designed with Single Player in mind, where you have long pauses between combat and you never fight the same faction longer than 10 minutes. 

 

That's why Phantom DR works only on host, that's why sync-kills were designed with Shepard (who has a dodge) in mind and don't work when you have Krogans/Batarians/Turians in MP who can't dodge. 

 

The factions were hastily cobbled together and the addition of Bombers/Dragoons/Stunning Drones made them worse. 

[Lvca_gr]

If we are going with factions I'd say Collectors. Because of shield/health gate ignoring captains and crabs. And crabs being the only unit in the game you can't melee unless you wanna die; everything else you can hit and run or even tank on ramps.

 

But geth primes' pets will always occupy a special place in my heart nightmares. Primes themselves are tolerable in reasonable dosages (Plat Geth W2, though   ).

Every enemy with burst fire weapons will "cheat" your gates because their duration on platinum is reduced to 0.01 second (0.1 on gold). Crab laser probably has a high tick rate so if it ticks more than 0.01 times per second, you basicaly get rekt every time. You would have to ask Mgamerz how exactly the laser damage is applied, if he can figure it out (I'm interested too).

 

Other than that, Geth are the worst because of stunlock.

The Crabs lazer damage wouldn't be that much of a problem, the problem is that it's hitbox is like 5x larger than what you can see. It's absolutely amazing at what kind of angles it can hit you (trough the walls too)

Oh yeah, that sure is broken as hell too.

[Darth Volus]

Praetorians laz0r damage is not that high but it has the rate of fire of a Reegar so it'll rek you just the same. 

[Geth Supremacy]

Geth are fair, respectable, worthy adversaries.  They do not cheat, they just demand a higher level of skill as they are a higher level of being.  I see many of you can't hang.  There is no cheating....only perfection in those circuits.  Git Gud.

 

Cheating would be shooting through walls and turning powers off.  If that fails locking up consoles.

[Tantum Dic Verbo]

Mods. They're OP, they are 100% stealthy, even Geth Scanner doesn't show when they're around. Plus they have a long range attack that is an insta-kill. And they are always primed to use it.

And the Drama Queen units that bring them to you are the worst! They hide more than Nemeses, and they can cloak up as teammates! We should at least be able to target them.
