OK, this is really starting to hack me off. I play as a Krogan more often than not, and I get that they have far lass agility than other classes. But seriously, the amount of times when I have run past a Banshee and then had to watch, and 5 seconds later, my Krogan starts, completly beyond my control, moving backwards (often around a corner) into the arms of a Banshee, who then stabs him.

Is anyone else having this problem?


only proper fix for this, BW needs to give us ping indicators, when that happens. dont play in lobbies where 1 of 2 things is going with the host. Ping between you and him more than 200, or packet loss more than 10%. as 10% (4-11% actually) is within the normal packet loss fluctuation, atleast as far as i have observed between overseas connections.

It's just a lag. Banshees especily do this .. together with their warping the can merge with your OLD location and 'can I grab it ?' will simply be true. The tractor beam is just a way of adjusting location where you are with the fact that banshee grabbed you on another spot.
Be warned, Phantoms know the trick too, but since they don't move that much fast, it does not happen that much.
Simply hold larger distance. It's not intended behavior, but it would not be easily fixed.


I didn't know singleplayer can lag too... she grabbed my Shepard 4 meters away... so it's not just lag, it's more likely bad programming.


Really ? Now that's dissapointing. On the hand, if it is bug, it could get fixed !

there should be a % chance that you get grabbed when you are closed to the banshee...I think it involves some bad (if you want to call it bad) programming: the AI is a lil l8 on the calculations and you seem to manage to get away even tough you are bound to be grabbed

it!


That, and Biotic explosions cause her to drop team mates. You should always have 2 biotics when knowingly fighting Reapers for chewing through armor and stoping insta-kills. Or, if your scared a teammate will be grabbed, and can't cause a biotic explosion, rockets do the same thing. It's simple matter of hitting her before the 'Bleed Out' message is shown.


   I actually wanted to ask about that. I've been rescued a couple of times, but I could never figure out what it was (I thought it was the Soldier's Concussive Shot). Is that the only way to save someone who's been grabbed? I've tried missile launchers, but consistently, the animation takes too long, and but the time I blow up the banshee, the grabbed teammate is already dead.

   Or, (and tell me if this sounds nuts) maybe the Banshee grab could work the same way as every other method of going down? It's terribly buggy, doesn't work as intended, and I've yet to see anyone claim they like it. Maybe get rid of instakill entirely? It kind of screws the whole team, not just the poor player grabbed from 30 meters away.

Staggering the Banshee I think breaks the grasp. So yeah, Concussive shot,

Banshee grabbed me mid biotic charge today. I targetted a marauder behind her and charged, she was about halfway between us. Suddenly I stop and go into the insta kill animation up in the corner of the room and the Banshee is still outside!

It wouldn't bother me too much but she got me earlier in the match too. And a Brute grabbed me in the same match, don't see that very often.

On Standard Rebellion files (this does not include balance changes which ups the percent on some enemies, not sure which):
Banshee sync kill chance when in range (BAnshee will do auto kill when in range this percent of the time when it chooses an attack when in range):
Bronze: 30%
Silver: 40%
Gold: 50%

Platinum: >59%
