Here's a thought.

You know Tali's recruitment mission in ME2? How there's a geth colossus at the end and he's really tough?

Anybody ever played Vanguard, Charged him, and tried to kill him from point-blank?

Let me tell you, that's one of gaming's better thrills.

Haven't tried Vanguard yet, but I did solo him as an Adept on Insanity at close range (mostly because I couldn't be arsed to revive the two buffons who fall like leaves whenever they see Geth on Insanity >_>).

It was....fun

Vanguard close range for the Geth Colossus and close range for any other class are different animals.

Some swear that the geth colossus turning its machinegun on you or not depends on the instant you attack - it needs to be specifically while it's actively firing its big blue weapon, apparently. I can't get it to keep firing those reliably, but after a few deaths I can usually get it to stick.

It is very, very, very fun.
