 I need to know what powers that are most effective on Brutes and Banshees. Banshees are almost impossible to kill online :3

[Aceor]

use biotic combo to explo then u willl kill banshee on gold about 10 sec or less

[ChrisRudson]

Sentinel vs Brute: Warp then keep shooting with a heavy pistol, then overload. Repeat process from the start. NOTE: Back up and run when he is about to charge at you.
Sentinel vs Banshee: Warp then keep shooting with an Assault Rifle or a Submachine-gun. Once her barriers are out. Use the tactic I wrote against a Brute.

Additional: Anti armor mods on both Pistols and Ar's are a big help.

Banshee & Brute:

1) Biotic Detonations (Warp + Reave / Reave + Throw / Warp + Throw / Reave/Warp + Cluster Grenade). Warp/Reave followed by another offensive Biotic Power does wonders. On the Banshee's barrier + armour.
2) Fire away your gun like a lunatic.

Just keep doing the biotic explosions and you'll be fine. Yeah... heh. Heck, distractions work well.

I used a Quarian Engineer and threw a Sentry Turret and also used my Salarian Decoy and the Banshee was slowed down. Even Cryo Blast works wonders in reducing the Banshee's speed. It's nice.

But imho, Biotic Combos r teh bustest.

Have tech's/bio's nuke the barriers and then get the sniper to blow it to smitherines while it's staggered.

Brutes are even easier since they dont have any shields, you can throw inferno down immediately for big armor damage or sticky grenades or just melt it with the sniper rifle..


Soldiers etc should be keeping the filler mobs at bay while you focus fire on the big ones. Gold isn't really that hard if you have a team that knows what its supposed to be shooting at, shooting the closest thing to you is not the best option, if you have overload/drain then use it to bleed down enemy shields - *look* for shields to drop and keep them down. Snipers should be plugging the big guys to weaken them as much as possible for the other team mates. Soldiers are great for AoE, soaking up damage and killing lots of smaller enemies.

If someone isn't playing their part to help the team and is more concerned about getting kills for themselves then you will always lose. It's all about teamwork on Gold.

Keep moving and shooting and use Warp and/or Overload if avaible.

Biotic combos. Banshee weak point are the boobs, no seriously. Brute weak point is the spine, hard to miss since it's a large area.

[Athenau]

Neither banshees nor brutes have weakpoints.

Aim For The Weak Point!

On the Brute, it is the head and neck. On the Banshee, for no apparent reason it's the ******. Someone posted a mathematical breakdown a few weeks ago, the Banshee head is considered by the game to be as damageable as her limbs, but her ****** take bigger damage. OMG.

And, of course, you might want the anti-armour powers to have their "more damage against armour" evolution on Lv6 instead of "more damage overall" evolution, if you're really devoted.

Neither banshees nor brutes have weakpoints.

You don't play a lot as an Infiltrator, do you? =)

Developers have said they don't, but testing ingame by several people confirmed they do. Try it on the Brute, the difference in damage is significant.

[General User]

The human engineer is a banshee killing machine. The drone can keep her busy while overload rips down barriers, and incinerate + whatever weapon you favor take care of the armour.

That's not a weakpoint though. Brute simply has strong points that mitigate much of the damage (e.g. the claw).

[Athenau]

Uh, I've played through insanity twice as an infiltrator. Banshees have no weakpoints. Brutes have armor plating, which just stop a fixed amount of damage before being destroyed. The spine isn't a weak point (you don't get a damage multiplier)--you just avoid the armor plates.

[Siansonea]

Psychological warfare? I dunno, I play on the "are you kidding me" easy setting.

[Feirefiz1972]

Depends on youre class and party of course, using sabotage and spamming overload + incinerate works wonders as an engineer. You can make good use of grenades as well. In sp the particle rifle with the apropiet ammo type kills them pretty quick.

[termokanden]

It's a no-brainer with combos. They all do boatloads of damage. I guess the combos have already been listed.

With my engineer I just use Sabotage + Overload against shields/barriers and Sabotage + Incinerate against armor. Banshees aren't the least bit scary when you can do this kind of damage.

l playing an enginner about level 35. I had Garrus, and jex/tex the really ugly alien with particle rifles. I have maxed out at least 2 skills in each character. I do the up button for the npcs, the hit with biotic shock or incedirate and if their powers are up then both of their bioic powers.

[idspisp0pd]

Yeah, Sabotage with the level 6 evolution for 100% tech damage bonus will do wonders. I have an insanity infiltrator with a Black Widow, specced for weapon damage all the way (barrel mod, Hahne-Kedar armor pieces, etc.), and spamming sabotage + incinerate is still quicker than sniping them to death.

Yeaauuupp.  Sabotage (100% Tech Damage, obv) is the reason I replaced Javik/Kaiden with Tali in my Sentinel Insanity playthru.  Sabotage + my Overload to wipe out protections, then biotic combos with Liara's Warp to remove Armor.

In my first run, I only used Sabotage as AI Hack, and therefore didn't understand why it was such an awesome, awesome power.  But the first time I used Tali's Sabotage (100% Tech Damage) + Shep's Overload (spec'd for Shield Damage) on a Banshee, I went

Brute - Aim its head with a sniper rifle while using incinerate, incinerate, incinerate.
Also effective - warp, reave, carnage, frag grenades, incendiary ammo, cryo blast, warp ammo...

Banshee - Overload, disruptor ammo, concussive shot, reave, warp ammo, energy drain...

Short of using the Cain, the absolute fastest way to kill a Banshee: Lift Grenades.

Can take em out in less than 3 seconds + removing everything standing remotely close to them at the same time.

Didn't feel like I was getting much help out of Energy Drain on Banshees last night. Does ED combine with Sabotage to do more barrier draining? It didn't make much of an impact on their barrier protection otherwise.
I did see something of a difference shooting them in the b00b area.

So in general, how to best off a banshee with an Infiltrator? This was hardest I have found it against them in this class as weapon damage is reduced and that barrier was resistant to overload, warp and ED, and incinerate, far more than biotic combo bombs.

[Zaxares]

I specced out my Human Infiltrator (STILL haven't unlocked a Salarian Infiltrator) to deal maximum damage while cloaked and using sniper rifles. I mainly play on Bronze, and I can take out a Banshee with my Widow IV (with Extended Barrel V and Piercing Mod V) in about 4 shots (2 to drain the Barriers, and another 2 to finish the job). She goes down even faster with teammate support. Brutes go down in about 2 - 3 shots, depending on whether I can hit the head (it's a dang small, moving target!)

Now, despite what I just said, it's actually more beneficial for my team if I ignore the Brutes and Banshees and go after the RAVAGERS first. I can one-shot those with my setup, and my teammates are a lot more effective when they don't have to worry about rockets being spammed at them.

I do wish people would post MP related discussion in the MP forum...
