OP Banshee Flip

Ever felt like the Banshee is fair ? Still feel the same when the user of the Banshee spams the Upwards flip ?
If no you are not alone.

I get the banshee needs to be able to dodge lasers and potential hijackers, however I feel like there should be a longer cool down on the maneuver “ability”. Epically on the Banshee Ultra, which is already OP enough with the Banshee bomb. All too often players simply won’t shoot at it with Standard weapons, and they will just “ignore” it. Allowing the banshee to continue it’s regin of terror.

Do not even get me started on what I feel when there are several in the same match…

I am interested to hear what others think about this ?

I’m personally ok with it, the banshee has next to no health, so there’s gotta be some way to lengthen it’s longevity.

And its still nowhere near as OP as the Reach Banshee.

Remember reach. That was an op banshee. Although I wouldn’t be opposed to removing the shields from the h5 versions.

The only Banshee that isn’t Paper Mache is the Ultra. They need shields if they won’t have decent health.

Man I used to go to town with that Reach Banshee. I think the Banshee is fine it can still be taken down, it’s not invincible.

Whoever got the Banshee first in Invasion would always win. Always.

I don’t see your point. There isn’t anything wrong with a glass cannon.

I’m the worst in a banshee. Seriously there’s no one worse at flying a banshee than me anywhere.

I spawn a banshee get maybe 1 kill (if lucky) then I die or get hijacked.

Thinking now now I should start spamming the upward flip

ponders

i agree, i get so mad at the banshee flip/Bomb combo, its so annoying and you just cant kill them anymore cuz they’re so agile

I say this as someone who’s managed to get a killionaire several times in Reach on Spire:

You’re right.

Banshee is fine as it is… it’s actually really easy to get hijacked; if you try to splatter someone and miss, it’s over for you. With all the plasma pistols and splasers, banshees won’t last long in one person’s possession. I usually use the upward flip to escape and throw off people’s aims, not to kill people (though it is easy to instakill people with the barrel roll)
