extra notes from a different player: learn to use snipers / bows offensively. it's an awesome combo with Sonar.

- with max sonar + max focus + pimped sniper + shade and optional rush / quick rest, rushing most of the 'normal' bosses is very easy.

sound quake is awesome against infested, because the damage against the small fry isn't reduced, even at higher levels (because they have no armour). and even against grineer and corpus it's really useful, because it staggers everybody in a 30m radius (without stretch) and kills those annoying ospreys and rollers. perfect when there's a large rush inc, and your defence team needs a bit of extra time to kill them all. (also very handy when somebody died in a big group, you rush over and sound quake, the other guy resses the dying dude, very little damage taken usually)

I generally play my banshee as agressive sniper, with rush + quick rest maxed it gets me pretty good results. shockwave is perfect as 'personal space' spam skill, even at fusion lv0 (especially against them ancients)

I could run stealth, but because it has no benefits otm, I generally run around like a hyperactive sniper / face stabber, and if I get caught in a big group I just sound quake to soften them up a bit and space them out.

the main problem with some skills is that they scale very poorly with levels, at low / low-mid level my sound quake whacks everything in a 30m radius to shambles, but at higher levels I only do it for the stagger or as finisher.
