I’m trying to get to the third pulse generator, but I can’t get in one of the two banshees without getting blown up by the wraiths guarding them. I’m also trying to get the Leave It Where It Lay achievement, so I can’t use a rocket launcher against them.
Any tips?

If you have a ghost, you should be able to blitz them. It’s tricky and unreliable, and usually gets you a badly damaged banshee, but totally doable. Unless you turned Boom on for some reason.
As long as you keep moving very fast, especially if you’re maneuvering a bit, the wraiths shouldn’t be able to hit you reliably. Where it gets dangerous is the moment you leave the ghost and thus stop moving quickly. Try to close in so that you exit the ghost on a snappy trajectory for hopping right into a banshee, and then soar immediately high into the sky, going overall upwards by also doing some mild maneuvering to avoid fire.
Destroy the Wraith on the left side of the Banshees from long range with the rocket launcher.
That only leaves you with 1 Wraith, which often goes into the middle and fights the Flood, and may get destroyed by them. You can destroy it yourself but it’s easier to just go to the Banshee with the Ghost.
Edit:
Leave It Where It Lay? Then here’s another way to do it.
If you have the bandanna skull I would recommend just spamming the wraith with grenades otherwise I would use a ghost and rush to the right side of the canyon. Hug the wall and rush past all of the flood until you get behind the giant rock to the rear of the Banshees. Wait until the Wraiths lose interest and resume shooting the flood then crouch jump over the gap in the rock and snag the Banshee.
Thanks for the help, but I got frustrated and ended up using rockets. I’ll definitely take a look at this thread if I go back and do it again.
Try to slow down just before you get to the Banshees so the Wraiths take a shot at you while you’re still away from the Banshees. Then quickly move to the banshees, jump out, get in, and fly up as as fast as you can.
When I did it it I used the ghost to get to the banshee and then flew away.
