As a marine main the things that scare me the most are sentinel castes and queen screeches

Ancient runner, the real memes. (Totally not sistor abductor)
And drone, played aggressively before the update, the one that gave a timer upon building resin's stuff.
Yes, I was that cunt throwing a macro nest, tackling you on frenzy, putting you in a nest and murdering you on Almayer.
Then getting shot, escaped behind a wall of walls and turns out, there was a vent. Turns out I'll heal with recovery and weed that I made myself.
Anyway, those were epic time. Elite/ancient drones could go fast, heal thesmelves, vent, build. Anything. Now it's just what it always supposed to be ; a small hivelord.

Praetorian is my favorite. Being big sister and all mid-range support.
But I can't deny how fun is it to play Hunter. As for being smaller size able to travel in the ventilation.

If you didn't said "Queen", you disgust me. Everyone knows the queen is the superior life form.
Best interaction with i've had:
I love you papa feweh, god bless.
LostPlayed a round as an Ancient Runner and Ancient Hunter. I still suck at alien though : ^)

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Ancient Spitter is a meme, so why shouldn't i piss the shit out of the marines with rapidly instant stunning spits. Legend says that spitter is shooting marine salt back to marines.
Most of the times i regret playing as a spitter because of autistic drones and wish i picked drone.

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Before the new caste was introduced I was die hard Spitter or Ravager fan, but now I'm a little more diverse. You do kinda feel pushed to play the new caste as they're currently a bit overtuned, but I'm still leaning towards Ravager or the new Prae.
I have a few whitelists and a few characters...

Being a standup fighting defender and warrior is fun for the new playstyle.

It was hunter lurker, but since stealth is essentially impossible with the new sprites, it is now ravager

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Being a drone is fun, but I tend to push the other drone in the way if the queen car is barreling towards me. Running around weeding and building things is nice, while they fall pretty easy, resin walls are pretty good as a temporary bullet soak for a healing warrior, though you'd have to build a few for them to heal enough.
Phillip Driver, jack of all trades, reliable in some. Your typical jumpy flamer PFC or ammo fumbling CPL, always has a pair of ballistic goggles on him for unknown reasons. Will probably die mid sentence, because he talks (and gets bullied) too much for his own good. He has his moments though.
Jim, a Gen 2 Synthetic. Has a tendency to get melted to bits when planet side, and that's when he's behind barricades. Despite that, he's vigilant and always ready to drag you out of danger, even if it damages him in the process.

I like runner and ravager for those lone marines whose day you get to ruin by knocking them down or chopping their limbs off before dragging them away.

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Either Carrier or Defender to be honest, though I've recently found a small love for boilers and their overpowered neurogas for getting tons of hosts.
Carrier because there's some sort of sadistic satisfaction knowing you're taking people out of the round and adding more sisters to your ranks.
Defender because you're fucking immovable, make marines waste so much ammo and also are pretty robust in melee if you decide to stop being a wall.
Boiler because MUH GASSES, MUH ACID WALLS, SCREW YOU TALLHOSTS

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Boiler. I hope to one day revive the Boiler Brigade to make the Marines that abandon me to die every round cry angry tears. Other than that, I enjoy playing Drone for my "tactical hugger combat" and because it's funny when two hosts try to break out of open nests simultaneously because the only beno watching them is a drone and said drone instantly knocks them both down and renests them.
I just REALLY like to make the enemy saltier than the Dead Sea. Does that make me a monster?

shame the only way to make xenos salt is by cheesing them with things like mines, alien mines, the tank etc
meanwhile every single xeno skill feels like cheese if you get memed by it

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
Yeah I enjoy playing boiler a lot too, you get to be a huge support and if you have a robust queen who times her screeches alongside your artillery, you can cause a lot of salt.

Re: What is your favourite Xeno caste?
I loved my first round as a TC. We hit three Xenos with the LBT and the driver ran them over until they died. They were so mad one of them actually LOOC salted us for a brief moment. Whenever I see a Xeno get run over, even if I'm a Xeno, I have to chuckle a bit at the obvious salt they have to be feeling. When it's me that get's run over? "God damn, that was stupid of me."
My philosophy is that if Xenos let the tank run them over, they kinda forfeit the right to be salty. If a marine lets me walk up to them in the middle of a fireteam and slap a hugger on their face, they should be mad at the marines in their fireteam for letting me do it and walk away, not at me for slipping through their guard and having to stand right next to them for half a second without anyone shooting me. If I get crabbed and dragged off in that situation, I might be tempted to looc commend the drone that did it while seething at my FT for not doing anything.
