Subject: Banshee is too OP in Reach

It's powerful, yes... but it also dies in seconds if you shoot at it with a DMR. It has no defensive capabilities as far as being a bullet sponge goes.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Scorpion will kill the banshee in one hit if it doesn't hit you first.
Falcon will destroy the banshee if you have people on both turrets, making it hard for you to line up a bomb without losing half your health.

It is quite powerful if you know how to use it, but team DMRing will destroy it.

The perfect counter to a banshee.

8 DMR's.

Mediocre Backpacker
56% W\L
2.86 k\d
3.18 DMR
7.29 God Magnum
7.79 Sniper
5.34 Needle Rifle

Lawl. The banshee is only overpowered against disorganized randoms, who don't think of the brilliant idea to teamshoot it into shrapnel.

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

Unless you're in a party, that won't happen.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Each person spawns with enough ammo to single-handedly take out a Banshee. Use it.

The Banshee is only OP against dumb retarded randoms. Any slightly organized group can take out even a skilled pilot in seconds.

But what if Gamesagers is navigating the banshee!!


If you are matching against gamesager then the problem isn't with the banshee, it's with the matchmaking system.


Who is gamesager and whats so special about him ?


No one, pigeon is better.

Not even close.

Try playing Gamesager when he's in a Banshee. It's not close to easy.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

It's not op, only to randoms it is.

  • 07.20.2012 10:27 AM PDT

Sniper, laser, warthog, falcon, DMRs, and the scorpion are all checks to a banshee..
Even if it was OP, which it isn't, anyone could easily use one of the above to take it out.

The perfect counter to a banshee in campaign.

8 Jackals.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Agreed,an easy fix for this is: Flips use half or 1/3 of your boost power.

This would be the perfect fix.

I've matched the kid 3 times and 2 games he had the banshee and i took him down everytime with the sniper rifle. He's not that quick for me.
