 Totally not frigin creepy, Bioware.

[Chadeaux]

Agreed. I will definitely not be seeing them in my nightmares tonight.

[Apheration]

I strongly dislike playing against the reapers in MP solely because of the Banshees. I don't even want to deal with them - first thing I do when I hear that screeching is have flashbacks of watching The Exorcist for the first time as a child, then pull out the missile launcher.

[Djinnistorm]

I still don't know how to deal with brutes and banshees, other than shoot ALL the bullets and hope it actually dies...

[Zzinged]

Totally does NOT remind me of the enders from Minecraft. Totally.

[Moose Invictus]

Yeah, Banshees are essentially crafted from Shepard's nightmares, eezo, and the topsoil in hell. I basically spray and pray when one appears.

Just finished one map where you have to deal with Brutes and Banshees, lots of fun ^^ . It took a lot of teamwork, lots of revival and a bit of luck ( everyone was between level 4 - 6) to put them down.

Same here, these Banshees seem unkillable to me, granted I was a low lvl Quarian Infiltrator with a crappy sniper rifle (so not really suited for that kind of fight) and I was the only left alive in our team it took me forever to kill it...

Scared the living daylights out of me. I let my friend play and went to the bathroom and I heard the screech while in the bathroom and flipped out.

I know right, the missile launcher is the only possible solution.

You know, that picture is actually funnier than you think. Banshees in-game are just large teleporting shades of black emitting the creepiest sounds I've heard in a video game, giving me shivers down my spine.

In fact, no L4D had creepier audio cues.

OMG even her nipples light up...can this thing get any creepier.

so any tips on how to deal with them yet...phantoms dont even scare me anymore.  

*shutters* 

[MockingAsp]

Run away and pelt at long range?...Oh wait, that's my solution for everything.

Yeah, I haven't found a reliable way of dealing with Banshees. Everything else is fine but they seem pretty overpowered.

[Kam1kaze7]

Last night a Banshee killed everyone but me. I kited it around with my Quarian Infiltrator for a good 5 minutes sniping it with a Widow before one of my teammates asked if I had any missiles left.

So to answer your question--a missile to the face works pretty well on them--if they aren't teleporting around.

Later on we tried some Silver matches and had two Banshees at the same time. We died horribly. I can't imagine Gold.

My first encounter with one, I kept trying to dodge it. Ended up backing myself into a corner. Then I learned about her instant-kill attack.

Next time, I'm running like hell.

[stysiaq]

So I guess Banshees are not just Reaper Phantoms, but some kind of beast you can't kill with a Widow?

Oh my.

[StarPhoenix1]

The one good thing about their instant-kill attack is that, as far as I can tell, it is interruptible. I'm almost positive I saw someone get picked up by a banshee, but get dropped when I hit her with enough bullets. I don't think you could do anything about phantoms' instant-kills (though banshees are still tougher and more nightmare-inducing).

[Eric Fagnan]

It is indeed interruptible.

[mixTyZ]

Dont you think its more fun to kill those things than the regular Reapers?

[AveryChim]

Good god... When I first heard the scream...
Seriously, nothing in the demo can prepare you for facing off with a Banshee...

Its like a Phantom and an Atlas had a baby, who grew up to be a Vanguard, whose battle cry sounds like a cat in heat being run through a blender. 

[SmokemJags]

At first playing MP, I just fought lots of Cerberus and Geth. I thought to myself 'wtf, brings on the reapers!'

Oh man did I regret that, now when I play random it's always "plz no reapers, plz no banshees, plz plz PLZ"

You can interupt phantoms, I've stasised them mid kill and stopped it before.

Banshees are easy so far...

Support your local vanguard. I watched a rather low leveled player smoke them pretty easily during the bronze build-up matches I was playing earlier.
