CODEX

Using sonic attacks and acoustic target detection, Banshee is well suited for stealth gameplay and is capable of filling both attack, and support roles.

This is Banshee, stealthy and ranged.

No one puts Banshee in a corner, Tenno. The element of surprise is in her favor.

Release Date: March 18th, 2013

Banshee is a sound-themed Warframe. Sophisticated acoustic powers enable Banshee to pinpoint enemy positions and weak spots, suppress gunfire sounds in her surrounding environment, and even emit trembling vibrations to topple her foes. Banshee debuted in Update 7.0 (2013-03-18).

Banshee's blueprint can be purchased from the Tenno Lab interface in the Dojo once it has been researched. The blueprint is also required to research its components.

Trivia

• The name Banshee comes from the Irish mythological creature which wails loudly if someone is about to die. This corresponds to the Warframes powers as they are all based on sound.
• The characteristic large spike on Banshee's left shoulder is considered a customizable Armor part, and will be removed if any other arm plates are used. This makes it possible to make a symmetrical Banshee.
