Infiltrators may be god-like on MP, but a well played Asari Vanguard can kick a ton of ass.

I did my best run with her (at level 10), doing 45K points (10K+ over the second place) and survived all 10 rounds with nigh a scratch.

What challenge was it? From my personal experience, drells and asari seem to have barely any hp/shields and I always seem to get downed :

I'm doing Bronze for now, since i'm still getting the hang of the MP.

It was in the Krogan base map against Reaper enemies. You're right about them not having much HP&Barriers, but the trick of playing them correctly (to avoid damage) is getting Biotic Charge to fully regen your barriers after each use and getting Lift Grenade with a larger area. You use the Charge into the middle of a group, immediatly use Lift Grenade and Statis anyone who's not lifted. Rinse, later, repeat. 

With only a Shotgun equipped, you have +105% power recharge time, so I can use a Charge every 3,2 seconds.

Trust me, at silver and gold, it's nigh on impossible to play with such small shield/health. On bronze its more than manageable, but nowhere as fun. I have Mantis and Avenger X equipped, my recharge is at 90% ^^

Actually just did a Silver with my Vanguard (on that satellite dish area) against cerberus, got 65K points and got through all 10 waves without dying. I have now a +170% recharge time (with a Disciple IV) and 3 Lift Grenades. 

Managed to kill 2 Phantoms in a triple LG spam and Statis-ed another for an easy headshot kill afterwards. This class is brutal!
