Banshee (Main) Tab

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

- In-game description.

Banshee is a female sound-based Warframe released in Update 7.

She specializes as a sniper Warframe with the Snipetron or her signature Paris due to Sonar, which reinforces her role as a mid-range 1v1 and boss fighter as a skilled Tenno can make use of her abilities to stay clear of the bulk of the fighting. She also shares the position of stealth frame of choice besides Loki, although Banshee swaps combat control for greater killing power against both single and multiple targets.

Acquisition
The Banshee Warframe can be purchased for 225. The blueprint can be purchased for 35,000.

Component blueprints are offered as random completion rewards from Raid, Capture, Spy, and Endless Defense missions. Xini (a Defense mission located on Eris) is reputed to drop the Helmet relatively frequently. For Chassis and Systems try Raid Mission on M Prime (located on Mercury).

Can't be obtained from Alert missions as they don't yield completion reward. Mystery Alerts only drop the alternative helmet.

Trivia

 * The name Banshee comes from the Irish mythological creature which wails loudly if someone is about to die.
