Missiles.

Seriously, these are the only enemies in the game I have trouble killing most days, but nothing I do seems to work well against them.


To add on to the other comments in this thread, I find two things useful to keep in mind when facing banshees:

1) Don't panic! Get yourself in a good position, preferably a nice, open area where you can duck into cover when the banshee throws the energy ball at you. Just like the Collector praetorian, take hard cover when they use the projectile - don't try to outrun it. When the banshee isn't about to throw the ball, stay in soft cover, so you can back up and move as it "jumps" at you. Make sure you don't get trapped in a small room / corridor, and remember that the banshee can and will reach through walls, because it sucks like that.

2) Often, it's not the banshee that kills you - It's the maruaders and ravagers that come with it, especially in the later waves. If you're playing at gold or above, it only takes a few seconds to have your shields and health completely wittled down. While you can take on a banshee when other stuff is alive, given how much easier it is to take care of the other enemies, generally it's better to kill the common mooks first.

Banshees have tactical cloak, thats all.
but seriously, yes it happens constantly to us all.

you can still use most powers on them and target them, but you cant charge.

I don't mean when they go invisible.They, very rarely, will vanish and not show up on the killfeed.

 

I noticed that yesterday. I was all alone in the game and decided to kill everything else before focusing on banshee. When the last marauder died, I just got the end of the wave message.

GI Piranha build. Take down Platinum Banshee in 30 seconds or less. If all team are specced like this then Platinum becomes a cakewalk: narida.pytalhost.com/me3/classes/#Infiltrator/Geth/IORLD/NPiranha10AO5AP5//ShotgunRailAmp3/CyclonicModulator4/ShotgunAmp5/

+1 On the missiles. Works every time unless you miss.

I enjoy concussive shot spam while kiting on human soldier, with an adrenaline rush Hurricane finish.

99 problems and none of them happen to be Banshees.

Should be between 1000 and 1500 if you killed them yourself or did you had help from teammates then less. So roughly 25 banshees on platinum should be a safe bet to complete the challenge.

N7 Paladin with AT-Raider is a deadly combo vs Banshee. Just spam that gun at them, keep snap freezing and energy draining, block warp with the shield. Done and done.

Needs to be done on Gold level, minimum. Not enough banshees for everyone otherwise.

They really do. Not very often, but it has happened to me 3-4 times. For example, there are 2 banshees at some point during the wave chasing me. I fight lower level enemies and when they are all finished off  I find out that there is only 1 banshee left. I am certain that I haven't killed the other one.

Couple of things to keep in mind.

Banshee's can sometimes skip their jumping animation and take two jumps instead of one and insta grab you, even if you host.

Then, Banshee's can sometimes jump through walls and to higher or lower ground. At least on Reactor, on opposite side from landing zone where stairs go up to near ammo box, Banshee's can sometimes jump through small opening between two tanks, or whatever they are and instagrab.

AV with Reegar can kill her in 3 seconds.

And if you feel lazy, choose AHI, TC>DC. Walk away.

I prefer heavy melee to the face.  Also great on a Batarian to get some damage reduction when she novas.

Just be mindful of when she is moving/warping.  When she stops to throw out a warp, you're golden to whack her in the face.  When she screams, time to move away.

Missile. Let them get dangerously close then shoot the floor. Even better if they are travelling in a pair.
