Warframe: Is Banshee Good In 2024?

[@Sabuuchi]

I've been playing a lot of Banshee on streams and people were asking me about my build so it gave me an excuse to stop being lazy and actually make a video. Another 3 years of "Sab is Shy" comments incoming.

[@Mikielma1]

Thanks for reminding me that Silence is an ability Sab, I will now use this re-learnt knowledge in the upcomming Clan event with these simple steps Step 1: Subsume Silence on Xaku 1 Step 2: Gaze the first two poor corpus units on the elevator section to shield strip the *entire* elevator ride Step 3: Press 1 to deny the entire eximus swarm from their main gimmick

[@danieljames1868]

Jade Eximi be wondering what the heck happened

[@TimesOldRoman]

Damn, reminding me of Shy like that... Banshee indeed has some dare I say fnuuy strategies, one of which I think Shy showed off about Savage Silence. I subsumed Marked for Death instead of her 4 and turned my duration to almost as low as possible. Savage Silence opens enemies to finishers in the first second or 2 for some reason, so I basically constantly spam 4 and 3 to dissapear an entire room, using 2 as an emergency more or less ahah And yeah I could just use naramon for finishers or zakti or smth, but this is just funny to me, and I like to not build around different weapons or focus schools. Banshee needs some love honestly. If only savage silence opened enemies to finishers for more than 2 milliseconds

[@ethanpadwick6943]

Savage silence SLAPS on ash, a finisher multiplier that scales with ability strength, allowing you to double dip on both base damage and multiplier from 1 stat

[@00Grimreaper00]

Funilly enough, I run ash without savage silence and build around random diffrent sources like arcanes and melee mods to speed up animations and make an even better slashy slashy stabby stabby london at 1 am challenge simulator from his 4) But I do see how it is very nice with that

[@beeco711]

Sadly the Resonance augment has a cooldown of 5 seconds per spread. I personally found good success with Pull over Sound Quake, and run the Sonic Fracture Augment. My gameplay loop is spamming Sonar to shield gate, finding my next group of targets and casting Sonic Boom followed by Pull, then I hit things with electricity damage since the electric proc is scaled by sonar. Banshee continues to be good in 2024, it is hard to argue with over a 100x damage buff.

[@VexTrooper]

As always, great in-depth folklore explanation, Mr. SubWoofer. Can't wait to see your next video on Jewelry heists involving Citrine and Jade.

[@ADeliberateTypo]

i like that your modding screen has like 20 rainbow wings clipping into the top part of the screen, thats orbiter fashion right there.

[@SwedetasticGames]

Sound Quake is really the only thing that needs a change. Silence having a secondary effect such as buffing damage to unalerted enemies would also be nice. She's fun.

[@ZarkhanXeron]

@@arcanaxiii6665Weirdly, it’s always been like that, and the list of abilities it actually works on is staggering and weird. Like, it even stops enemies from throwing grenades and it stops Scorpions/Ancients from using their grappling hooks. The only thing it doesn’t work on is passive auras, like Guardian Eximus damage reductions or Ancient Healer Overguard. I run it on my Nekros over Soul Punch and it helps SO much with survivability in the Steel Path

[@linkkris]

I still use her, gloom on her 4 and setup armor stripping on her force push 1. She's enjoyable and hardly see anyone else on her.

[@nssheepster]

On the one hand, good video, I enjoy your content, and I had entirely forgotten about that augment for Banshee so maybe I should actually get around to farming her prime and poke it a bit. On the other hand, curse you for poking the Shy-shaped scab wound in my heart. She was a lot of fun. I mean, she seems to be happier now, so I'm glad for that, but... She was a lot of fun, regardless. Ah well. She's hardly our only loss over the years.

[@disparu6007]

What happened to her exactly?

[@wolfexxvii]

@@disparu6007 unlisted all the videos on her channel cuz some people were bitching about her not making warframe content(fuck em). made a new channel to do what she actually wants to on that instead.

@@disparu6007 She makes visual novels now, and doesn't want anything at all to do with Warframe. Nuked her channel too. I believe she does a Warhammer podcast still too? So there's that.

[@Valdyr_Hrafn]

I have an ancient build that subsumed harrows ability onto her. I love holding enemies still and giving myself shieldgate

[@teocappy]

try with khora subsume, its fun and can turn liches/sister/acolytes into trash mobs

[@twoheadedgiantgaming7029]

I think of Banshee every day... When I cast silence on my Zephyr

[@videogamescoverftw]

I subsume shooting gallery onto her 1, gives similar cc to gloom and works well with silence. The damage bonus may be overkill with sonar but I don't know how bad my teammates will be. If things get really bad atleast res quake stunlocks everything, and if you have sonar stacked relatively high can kill corpus and infested well into the thousands.

[@XelthorTheBlind]

I see you with that Xenoblade X track at the end. I always appreciate the end card music you run with, but I adore Xenoblade's vocal tracks. Nothing makes me begin to sob faster... excpet Pikachu's Goodbye.

[@Rajclaw]

[@lachlain4070]

I personally swapped my four with Mesa's Shooting Gallery, anyone that doesn't fall over due to silence gets blasted with a blind with the augment. Plus more damage = bigger numbers the only way to play warframe

[@manuelkanbara]

I like using Mirage’s skill for damage reduction, i feel less like a wet paper towel and more like a regular towel.

The only difference between "bad" and "good" frames is how many resourced you need to invest to make 'em good.

It’s kinda sad that Banshee isn’t given more love because she is pretty damn strong and can survive a lot better than before.

[@reginadea2821]

What's your build? She was my go to since I got her way back when, but it's just hard to survive today's content without a shield gating build. The shield gating playstyle is far too frantic for me, and silence and gloom combo doesn't stop her from getting shot at from a distance.

[@Sci-Fi_Freak_YT]

@@reginadea2821 I haven’t used her in a while but I utilized quick thinking tech to make her live. It’s not perfect and can’t be used for lvl cap but for general content it’s pretty good (this strat also involves adaptation too).

[@BenMojo.]

I wasn't expecting to hear Harvest Moon music xD

[@rainbowsnek]

i unironically forgot banshee existed so badly that i thought this video was about some weapon i didn't know of

[@sutandokyatto]

I use resonating quake to nuke very low level. 95 meter is good

[@prosack2585]

Shy makes virtual novel games that capture the early 2000s feel. Art style is not for me but if you to show me her games and older western visual novels then I think they were made by the same person. Story: I don’t know because I don’t read visual novels. Being limited to reading a story on my PC is pretty bad when I can read 90% of books on mobile devices and spending money on a laptop is unnecessary for me since modern smartphones can do almost everything a laptop can do now.

I always liked the 'time stop' banshee with max strength gloom and silence. Though its not as good since the eximus rework.

[@Xsoskeleton]

i thought about banshee at least every other day cuz her deluxe got the absolute territory and hidden package

[@pdch759]

Ok i acutally use sound quake though. Well for afk nuking low level defense mission. Doesn´t happen often that you need that, but it´s nice when it happens. It is literally press 4 and wait for 5 minutes for everthing to die. But i am pretty sure that is the onlya niche usecase, otherwise it is useless.

[@dreamlessking9]

I miss shy's videos...

[@SaltedMallows]

She’s the best focus farming frame in the game with quake. Can kill more enemies in the Jade event, Sanctuary onslaught and other modes than anyone in the game I’ve had 4500 kills wave 8 banshee. Can cap focus in 1 run. Max weapons in hand in 1 run. Adaro Sedna queen

[@privatepessleneck]

I wonder if a reason banshee doesn't get as much play because shes basically an inverse chroma the two of her abilities worth using just debuff enemies and open them to more damage, but then its just using your guns to solve problems.

[@itsKimi]

banshee has been one of my favorite underestimated frame for the longest time in history of the game

[@VintageJigmac]

Im glad banshee still has some use *Cries in nyx never getting reworked*

[@TimesOldRoman]

God. Same dude. We can only hope...

[@OrginalDarkest]

I mean nyx is so far I know the only frame that strips both armor and shields while working on acolytes. She's pretty good, only the ult kinda sucks in that you go so fucking slow and that you can't jump while using it.

[@Jenkkimie]

@@OrginalDarkest Slap parkour velocity shards on her and roll, since roll is considered parkour. Works on Mesa and Ivara too for example.

[@VintageJigmac]

@@OrginalDarkest Haha no. No one, literally no one is bringing Nyx to kill acolytes because the options for acolytes are 10x better than nyx herself. Also the strip armor and shield is Temporary. The moment you recast it onto someone, whoever was affected WILL GAIN THE ARMOR/SHIELD BACK. Compare this crap to other frames that PERMANENTLY REMOVE THE DEFENSE, she is complete shit in terms of stripping armor/shield.

[@Hypercane_]

If you relly want a gambling addiction subsume breach surge onto banshee and wait until you get sonar to perfectly overlap with the head on an enemy you aren't even firing at, this results in I subsumed breach surge and played with it until I perfectly overlapped her sonar with the head. Needless to say it was big funny and resulted in a gambling addiction
