Post your most fun, funny, annoying, or just plain odd experiences with Banshees.

this one time in the Maw i was gonna try to take one of the Banshees that appear right before the food-nipple grunt. i sniped the pilot and it kept on flying! i got angry, needless to say, and hit it with a Jackhammer. it exploded and STILL kept on flying. i didn't make it to the end that time.

well super jake, that was because the banshee is a special cinematic banshee, an untill it becomes a real banshee you can't distroy it in any way. i gave up eventualy and turned those shees into dropships in spark edit. much more realistic. no banshee could take down E419.

anway shee stories:
ok, let me start by saying that i pride myself on vehical takedoewns. sure, i screw up every now an then, but most of the time i can take down any vehical that an enimy is in, while i'm on foot.
anway, i joined a blood gultch game, an i respawned, just to stt one of my teamates beaing takendown by a banshee. not shockingly, i was in the open, and had no cover to run to. everyone knows that you spawn in BG wiht a sucky plasma pistol, as opposed to the AR i usualy use asainst a banshee. anway, the she came towards me, i side stepped it, and started shooting.
end result: i beat the shee. i was suprised, shocked, espicaly because the guy i nocked down was winnin the game by about 10 kills.
then i took his shee, and whiped out his whole team as they all ran to the tank...

this is from another of my posts

Yeah, that's always fun too.


Nother good one (in campaign):
(legendary difficulty too)

I am trying to get to control room and I am at the part where you are on the brindge and Cartona is blabbing he head off. I am going crazy trying to get the Banshee before the Elite does. I have active camo on but it wears out after 10 seconds.

Round 1: I stop n listen to Cartona, camo wears out, I run to get in Banshee, I get Pwned by the aliens

Round 2: Ignore Cartona, run like crazy, when I get to Banshee the elite jumps in and backs it up, crushing me. (Elites have really evil laughs, this one laughed fer like 5 minutes)

Round 3: Set my wepon from assault to needler, RUN YA HEAD OFF! to the Elite, whack him until he dies, jump in Banshee, get killed be a GRUNT with a fuel rod gun

Round 4: I am getting frusterated, so I go back n find a rocket launcher [>:D] and blow up the red Banshee elite, only to end up blowing up my ride too (><). I am REALLY ticked off and just start firing rockets at random and end up killing myself.

Round 4: Go back, get more ammo fer needler, run like crazy to Elite, pump him full of 60 needler shots (I counted) Get in my hard earned ride, Blow stuff up.


Ugh

ive got a great shee story from halo multiplayer.

so its a tied game in blood gultch. red team is on a major attack. warthogs, ghosts coming at us, our shee and enemy shee are in battle overhead.
were all fighting like crazy, dieing, respawning, and fighting again.
end result, 1 guy manages to get flag and teleport, he then goes up to cliffs and makes his way back to base, a few of our guys follow but they are far behind. i see that both shees were blown away during the battle, so i run to one and set off towards red base. in distance i see guy w/ flag running for base across open ground. i fire the cannons and get off one feul rod but he doesnt go down, as i close in he goes in bottom of base, im like -blam!- he got it, so i dive in planning to suicide myself on top of base. i got assult rifle fire coming from all over the place, i dive down, crash right into base and suddenly SPLAT, guy carrying flag walks out from side into middle a few feet from returning flag and dies, flag is lying there, i jump out, return it, then die from 5 grenades.
