Sonic Boom is an instant ragdoll. Its incredibly useful for any frame, especially fragile ones like Banshee that can't afford to take hits but still might find itself on top of a crowd. Add in the augment, -70% armor with CC in a nice area makes for one very nice offensive ability as #1s go. Personally, far better than Ash's both because of the number of targets effected and in the reliablity of it (won't arc out and hit a wall rather than the target). It won't clear a room, but that goes for all #1 powers.

Her number 4 suffers from not being directly useful to kill things but is still an effective CC. Like her 2 and 3, those powers are significantly better with a squad to take advantage of their effects.

I could see merging the effects of Quake into Silence because they're both radial CCs - the aura from Silence that stunlocks targets in range if you stand still. For a new ult they could go down the road they've been on with many frames and have a special weapon. Say a sound cannon, maybe draw from mythology and give it a slow/paralize/petrify proc keeping her still as more of a CC frame than another pure damage one.
