I think we all can agree that Insanity is a pain in the ass. However, there will always be that battle that just pisses you off the most. What would that battle be?

For me, I would have to say the Collossus fight while recruiting Tali would be the hardest so far. I was playing on my Engineer with Miranda and Garrus (Three overloads, you would think it would be easy right?). I made sure my squad was in place and was very precise when to use my powers. Yet it still took me an hour and a half of constantly reloading the damn fight and constantly hearing "We don't have enough people on our side for you to take one for the team. Get down!" I never felt so relieved when I finally managed to down the bloody thing. >.<

That fight was a pian, but the one I hated the most is the collector ship.

[Yantze]

This is the honest truth but I doubt anybody will believe me. I did a ng+ on my soldier and that side mission were you find the dead cerebus officer took me forever. I did that pretty much first and had to keep opening the door shoot then run back before Adrenaline Rush wore off. If I went inside to fight they all rushed me and bent me over backwards. Nothing else even compared to that. Plus once you got upgrades everything got easier.

[Jaekahn]

Haha yeah, I did a crap load of retreating in the Collossus fight. My Engineer run is also an NG+ so it is much harder than it would have been. But yeah, nothing's more rewarding than successfully completing a mission on insanity. Nothing's more annoying than successfully failing on insanity neither.

[ShadowWolf_Kell]

For me, it was recruiting Mordin. I didn't do an NG+. I re-imported my ME1 character instead.



Those dang Vorcha and Krogan drove me nuts. After you get Mordin, sooooo much easier. No, I didn't have the points to sink into Indenciary ammo. I'd put them into Disruptor ammo for Freedom's Progress lol.



Haven't recruited Tali yet, so we'll see what happens. I actually found Horizon pretty darned easy. Far easier on Insanity than my first playthrough on Normal due to familiarity.

Playing a NG+ Soldier/Insanity, the hardest so far have been Horizon, then Garrus recruit, then Collector ship. It seems the Insanity play difficulty is getting easier as my Shepard gets leveled up, which makes sense given the NG+ Shepard build challenge. Shepard's shields & health are tougher, and combatants are going down easier.

The Collosus in Haestrom.



Definitely like old times.

[beyondsolo]

I'm not all the way through on insanity yet, but Horizon was tough. I took me at least five attempts. The worst thing about it is that you can't save inbetween the waves. Saving Garrus was also pretty hard. I managed to get him out of there with one pixel worth of health bar.

I'm not exactly looking forward to the swarms of Husks on the Reaper.

Thats what happens pretty much. It gets to the point were you can pop AR kill like 2 or 3 guys then return to cover and still have 75% of your health left. The IFF mission and final mission were surprisingly easy for me. Had 0 deaths on those but that damn side mission in the beginning just wrecked me.

I died several times on that fight until I realized that it's much easier to approach the Colossus on the right (rather, the Colossus' left). If you approach using the bridge on the left, the geth will repeatedly respawn and head straight for you; if you approach on the right, the remaining geth in the middle get confused and only one geth spawns at a time.

So far, the Collector Ship. Harbinger is such a pain to fight. I only got through the ambush by going through medigel like candy. Though the Scions and Praetorian weren't a problem at all thanks to my combat drone. Harbinger? Not so much. I can't decide which is worse; his constant biotic spam or him never shutting up.



"This hurts you." "I know you feel this." "If I have to destroy you Shepard, I will." "This hurts you." "This hurts you." "We are the Harbinger of your destiny." "The experiments will continue." "This hurts you."



Harbinger would be a lot less annoying if he would just shut up for more than 5 seconds.

The 3x heavy mechs on the side mission you get from Aria.

Granted I was like level 10 when I did it, but took me a good 12 re-loads before I beat it and then only made it out with 6 boxes.



Nothing else really gave me as big a problem as that mission.

[Unit-Alpha]

I thought the Garrus mission on Insanity would be really hard, especially the whole shutter closing thing. However, I only died once when I was trying to keep on of the stupid varren off Miranda.

[Empiro]

So far for me, it was the Horizon battle at the end against the two Scions and the waves of Husks that come at you. I died several times on that part.

What eventually ended up happening is that I was just running around the map with cloak on to put distance between the husks and myself, and then killing 1-2 of them, and then repeating the process again. I don't think I could have beaten it without cloak.

Some of the other battles took a few tries, but those times, i just felt that I made a mistake, and that I could avoid it. The Horizon battle just felt impossible without some serious cheese.

The trick for me on Horizon was knowing when and where the waves would be coming from, and scrounching for ammo in between. I actually had Garrus and Zaaeed snipe from different spots to help spread the husks out a bit. I also found blasting the legs off (literally) the Husks instead of their heads to work quite well.

3 x Concussive Shot helped immensely for the waves.


The Scions were an absolute pita.  I was being chain shockwaved and couldn't do anything for awhile.

I just ran around kiting husks and ripping the scions down with AR. Once the scions were gone the husks get grinded up with the Revenant. From that point on I stayed on that one area with 2 sets of steps going to it. Husks spawn there but you can kill them quickly. The collectors just sit in the middle until there dead to. Once the Praetorian comes then you gotta move.

[SF117]

The Colossus fight was actually pretty easy. I ran over to the higher area to the right of it. From there, the Geth don't respawn and you can just sit there and shoot at it until it finally dies.



Horizon was a bit of a pain, though.

[Ecael]

A fun trick/glitch for the Horizon battle:

After opening the door to the last part, you can snipe both Scions without retaliation as long as you stand where the door was. Their guns actually stick out from behind the transmitter tower, making them hittable. If you kill them before walking in and triggering the event, it skips that Scion/Husk phase.

[Firespray38]

Going through Insanity right now and just got to the Collector Ship, this is so far the hardest part I've encountered and the most aggravating.

Figures. Of course there isn't a glitch for the Sentinel <_<

[Brutalise]

Hmmm, hardest has to be the very first fight when you're in the Collector ship.

Then there was the fight on Horizon.

[StowyMcStowstow]

So far the Hardest for me is the one I just finished, Recruit Garrus. Here's why: I can take a rocket to the face, huge amounts of bullets all over the place, but when I have fire thrown at me I flail around like a freakin retard? No thanks. I died a bunch of times due to both flamethrower guys and my team mates stupidity.

However, I figured out that you can snipe the Heavies on the other side (top part) with out triggering them to shoot at you. It makes it a whole lot easier when you don't have a dozen rocckets flying around at once.

I predict the fight on the Okeer/Grunt mission will be a pain. Seeing as how last time, I had to do it alone. I ran out of Medi-gel halfway through the fight, so I had to kill a Krogan, the Heavy Mech and the boss solo. Amd that was on Hardcore.

I haven't finished my insanity playthrough yet; but so far playing as my level 30 Soldier....

The Colossus only killed me once on insanity and I didn't even use my heavy weapons. 
The Warden of Zero's prison ship and his squad killed me 4 times.
While recruiting Garrus closing the far right shutter took 4 tries and the gunship took 3. 
The Praetorian on Horizon got me about 5 or 6 times and made me use all my power cells to power my missile launcher (I think using the Cain is cheating).

But the hands down champ is definitely the final fight against the Vorcha and Krogan during Mordin's recruitment mission.  While I definitely lost count of the exact number of times I died, I'd guess it was at least a dozen times.  Of course I played that mission pretty early on when I wasn't as accustomed to the challenges insanity presents and I hadn't retrained my powers to better adapt to said challenges.  Its still a **** and a half though.  When I did it I hardly had any upgrades and I only had Jacob and Miranda on my team and while Miranda is always very useful Jacob is very weak on insanity.  Plus I had more trouble keeping my guns supplied with ammo during this fight than I have in any other battle.  I mean at least with the Praetorian you know where to focus your attention; but during this fight there are simply so many things that can kill you and you have to get through 5 waves of enemies without the benefit of any saves or autosaves (and dying because some **** Vorcha gets too close on the last wave is beyond enraging).

I'm getting ready to play the Mission on board the Collector Ship though and I figure that fight with the two Praetorians might prove to be a real ****, although the terrain is definitely more advantageous to me in that battle than it was on Horizon.  If I let myself use the Cain it would probably be pretty easy; too easy in my opinion.  So I'm going in with my handy missile launcher and hoping for the best.

[Crimson Shame]

Horizon has been the only mission that I've had to quit without finishing and try again the next day. And then, surprise! It was easy as hell when I tried again. Only died once, and that was to the Praetorian before I had figured out what to do with it. Weird how that works out.



Overall, I'd say it's a three-way tie between Horizon, Garrus' recruitment, and Tali's recruitment. All have been a pain in the ass for me. Nothing else has been overly difficult, though that darn Collector ship still hasn't triggered.
