Something is seriously wrong with Banshees, when I can dance around a Brute as Vanguard and pretty much wear him down in no time, as long as I have some source of ammo nearby for longer fight.


Banshee? Entire team instantly focuses them, and we might kill her before she kills us.

I dread fighting Reapers simply because of Banshees.

They're a sniper's nightmare to hit, too.

Meh, at first they had me worried, but... warp, a good pistol and a lot of dodging and weaving later, and down she goes

ya, warp, incinerate, or reave to damage their/lower their armor then follow up with another biotic power to trigger biotic explosion works well on her

(heavy pistols & sniper rifles also get a 50% damage bonus vs. armor) & using the armor-piericing mod is a must (gives another 25% damage bonus vs. armor
&
lets you shoot through light cover/thin walls (the 60% damage penalty only applies IF the bullets have to go through armor --there's NO damage penalty if the target is'nt behind cover)

That armor bar definitely takes a lot longer to work through than the barrier bar. If I have room to run, Banshees don't give me a lot of trouble anymore. The biggest danger seems to be running into more mobs as you kite, or getting caught in open terrain with some ravagers spitting in your general direction.

Whoever compared Atlas Mechs to Banshees is insane I'll take two atlas for every one banshee on almost any team with almost any character. An infiltrator with a Widow can down an Atlas in short order if given covering fire, the Banshee on the other hand is a complete pain the butt. The atlas gives you a massive target to fire at and is slow, the Banshees attacks are just as deadly and she's fast not to mention the fact that she can avoid missles/bullets/etc if you aren't careful.

I saw some tip about damaging her while she's charging but I have yet to see anything actually cause her to pause beyond all 4 players slamming her with powers at the same time.

 I have a few highly sophisticated tactics for dealing with banshees.

1. Replay the "You shall not pass!" scene from LOTR in your head, pull out missile launcher.

2. Clench teeth and empty all clips, all anti-armor powers into that thing and hope it dies.

3. Run as if your butt was on fire while firing desperate potshots at it.

Never fails.

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.

Well atleast you can flush it away instead of hiding it in your pants XD

This reaper pisses me off to no end, more than the Phantoms or Geth Hunters. I mean FFS, seriously? She manages to grab me 10 feet away from her at times where she clearly shouldn't be able to use her fatal melee attack.

When I play against the reapers in MP, I just mute my headset. It's better.

Whenever I fight a banshee, I always shoot her potbelly.

Actually that's exactly what you're supposed to do. When playing a Quarian Infiltrator, I ended up the only one left on my team with a Banshee. I kept shooting her in the face with my Widow and I barely made a dent on her (even with +25% damage for headshots). She kept bringing her barriers up again (I thought that it wouldn't be possible for me to kill her). So once I shot her in the belly and blam! More than half her Barriers were gone! Kept shooting her in the belly and killed her rather quickly.

Remember folks, shoot the belly, not the head!

Seriously? Well, that'll help.

On the other hand, my Drell Vanguard found out that the Banshees can one hit kill you, like the Phantoms. Now I dread fighting Reapers.

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


Except the banshees were not messed up by Notch.
They could have been so much more creepy, but now they are stupid bee's that **** themselves cause of water...

The Banshees remind me of those "Something"mothers in System Shock 2

Actually, every enemy type has at least one unit that can instakill you. Phantoms (and Atlas, I hear) for Cerberus, Primes for Geth, and Banshees and Brutes for Reapers. Banshees are, by far, the worst, in my opinion. The screams scare the living crap out of me. Oh God, now I won't be sleeping again.

Trapped in a room with a banshee, brute, and two ravagers. My engineer peed herself before she got hugged by the banshee and died. Usually they are not too much trouble with an engineer though. I keep her occupied with my decoy while spamming overload and shooting like crazy...followed by incineration and more shooting. The funniest though was when I saw a banshee pick up a charging Krogan like it was a little doll.

I hate the insta-kills and wish they would do away with them. One time today a phantom spawned right on me, instant dead with no chance to do anything.

I never had a Prime kill me in one hit...I got killed by the Phantoms and Banshee, and I know Atlas do, but Primes don't instant kill I think.
