Banshee is one of the best supporter (Buff/Debuff) frames out there. She excels at defense missions and is pretty much invaluable during the high tiers.

The following is my personal experience of the usefulness of Banshee's abilities.

Sonic Boom (Fus Ro Da) effectively knocks any and all mooks away from whatever you happen to be defending if there is no vauban available as well as giving you just enough time to revive fellow tenno in the midst of a crowded shitshow!

Sonar needs no explaination.

Rhino's Roar = x0.5 dmg + Focus mod

Novahkiin's Molecular Prime (Nova) 2x dmg + Focus mod

Banshee's Sonar 5x dmg + Focus mod

Though a major drawback with sonar is it CAN get hectic when aiming for the orange glowy bits when surrounded... but accidental hits to weakspots can still happen from you or your squad!

Silence is one of those situational abilities for stealthy mission runs. Yeaaah, no one is going to give you shit if this is omitted from your Banshee's setup.

Sound Quake is devastating toward lowbie mobs (level 30 and below) but wont kill higher level enemies outright. If I am surrounded by enemies I might use Sound Quake to stagger them, hopefully buying enough time for a REAL damage frame to swoop in and save my ass.

TD;DR? BANSHE IZ GUD AS SUPORT! SONER 500% DAMEGE IZ OP!  FUS RO DAH USEFUL BRO   IGN: Itsdoodoobaby
