GBO2 RX-0 Banshee (Post-Buff): The king of melee raids!

- This video contains two matches I had with the recently buffed Banshee on Gundam Battle Operation 2. It is a 700 cost raid with incredible melee damage, high mobility in NT-D mode, powerful shooting options, a powerful heavy attack that can be comboed into via the right technique and LV4 melee priority in NT-D mode. Its weaknesses would be that its midrange game is kind of risky to use, short melee reach alongside having the downside of it needing to lose enough HP before it can use NT-D mode. This suit was recently buffed with 25500 HP, 0.5 seconds beam saber swap time, 3 seconds NT-D VN cooldown, 1.5 seconds beam smart gun cooldown, 10 seconds beam smart gun overheat time, 1000x5 irradiation smart gun power alongside LV3/LV4 Leg Buffer. I almost thought that the Banshee would be weak forever, but I was very pleasantly surprised to see the patch notes listing the buffs. I hope that you enjoy watching!
Its primary ranged weapon is a beam smartgun with 2800 power, 1.5 seconds cooldown, 70% heat, 10 seconds overheat, 0.5 seconds swap time, 400m range and 70% stagger value. This has low heat and good damage, it also pierces and instant stuns. The low cooldown time means that you can overheat it to get two stuns in a row.
Its primary melee weapon is a beam saber with 2950 power, 2.5 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time and 80%/64% combo modifier. This has good damage in 2-3 swing combos but has somewhat short range. It gains a third swing once NT-D activates.
Its first sub weapon is a head vulcan with 150 power, 40 ammo, 600 RPM, 11 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 200m range, 1500 DPS and 6% stagger value. This has long reload time and not much ammo, but it can stagger in just 1.7 seconds and has great DPS.
Its second sub weapon is a vibro-nail with 3250 (3600) power, 3.5 (3) seconds cooldown, 0.33 seconds swap time, 100% side swing modifier, 160% downswing modifier, 1.5 seconds focus time and 400% heavy attack modifier. This weapon has long cooldown in normal mode, but high damage and the ability to heavy stagger with normal swings. NT-D activation causes the weapon to gain a larger hitbox, enables use of the heavy attack and causes normal attacks to bypass buffers. The heavy attack can even be comboed into, provided that you do a somewhat tricky dodge roll combo.
Its third sub weapon is a beam smartgun with 1000x5 power, 70% heat, 4 seconds cooldown, 13 seconds overheat, 0.5 seconds swap time, 400m range and 50%x5 stagger value. This stops to fire for an extended period of time, but it fires a highly damaging piercing beam with good stagger accumulation.
The Banshee has 25500 HP, 24 ballistic/beam resist and 30 melee resist. This is pretty durable considering the size of the MS, but the HP drain in NT-D means that it isn't quite as good as it seems. It has LV3 (LV4) Maneuver Armor, LV3 Emergency Evasion, LV3 (LV4) Special Leg Buffer and LV1 (LV2) Special Armed Armor VN Buffer for defensive skills. The numbers in brackets refers to the changes when NT-D activates. The buffers make it so that it can be quite durable if shot in the right places, especially since the VN buffer is 60%/70% damage reduction depending on if NT-D is active.
It also has 135 (140) walk speed, 230 (240) boost speed, 75 thrust and 75 (87) turning speed. It gets absolutely amazing mobility once NT-D turns on, but is below average before that. It also gets LV3 Flight Control and LV2 (LV4) Forced Injectors to further increase mobility.
The Banshee has a unique skill called LV2 NT-D. This can be activated via the touchpad at 80% HP or less and grants the aforementioned skills and stats boosts, but this comes at the cost of losing 30 HP per second. In the case of Banshee specifically, NT-D also causes melee priority to be boosted past high, so it can swing through other raids without clashing.
In conclusion, I feel that the Banshee has massively shot up in power thanks to these buffs. It has a similar feeling to when it first came out, since it has the ability to wreck even generals in melee if NT-D is activated. The ability to start and end combos with a claw downswing means that you can do absolutely absurd damage. The shooting buffs help a ton for when in normal mode, since you can do pretty good damage to the support from a distance if given the chance, albeit with a lot of risk because you stop to fire. The stun game is also a lot better, since you can stun 3 times in a row now, compared to before where you maxed out at stunning 2 times. I have no more real complaints about this suit, it still has to fight in a meta with tons of powerful generals, but now it has the strength to fight back. Here is hoping that the other raids get buffs as good as the Banshee got. Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!

This is PC I'm guessing
Oh fuck yes Rage Awakened, incredible song and very fitting for this suit in particular after getting the short end of the stick for so long.
Omg I just realized that was you that kept killing me XD
Sorry! GGs though.
I was playing c1 and I realized midway through avenger was on my team playing banshee today lol
Kudos to you S Rated players. I hope one day to reach S and have Avenger hawk me down lol
You were the Geymalk pilot on the 1st match of the video?? Ooooooooooooof!
So many posts from Avenger...He's earnin' that PS5 Pro lol
Honestly I wish the hp drain would down to 20 instead of 30 since this banshee doesn't have access to awakening
does banshee now can do 3* downswings with VN starting (in NTD mode)
Yes. It can do a lot of damage.
i mistakenly misunderstood the potency of the beam smart gun and smart gun discharge buffs when i said they didnt buff this suit enough in the discord. the shooting power is so much drastically imporved on this thing, which was its biggest weakness. the extra hp and melee power is nice but the shooting buffs are really what came through
Is it worth getting banshee over Penelope? For PC next week will be Penelope's banner and I kinda want another raid suit to fill the spot.
Banshee is really good in close combat with a higher damage potential and its heavy stun on its claw allowing for easier combos. However, Penelope obviously has more firepower and is less likely to get ganged on since it isn’t required to be close to the enemy to be devastating. It depends on your play style.
@@TorringtonBase Thanks for the input.
@@madtitan2128Penelope is much safer to play in. Banshee has trouble on larger maps.
banshee u can get now at pc with the recycle ticket. i am also considering to buy using recycle ticket
The king of hot wings!?
LET'S GOOOOOO THE LION RETURNS!!! Tho would've been neat with that arm saber or Awakening added me thinks, happy this bad boi got buffed 💕
Hey I'm in your video as Gundam xi
GG!
They buffed my baby. 😢
The fight at 4:30 is carnage.
I was the support on artic base
Bruh 300k?!?!?! OMG 😮Str8 killer instinct with all the relentless combos! GG’s
Yesss my song suggestion got used! Think what would of made it perfect is complete silence till the first NTD to play it just to really sell the awakened rage!
Surely Nightingale will get its buff soon...
Bruh I ain't gonna see these buffs till mid 2025 cause of PC....
still, i'd like them to remake the BS Discharge to something better i hate that thing stand and steer and got hit in the face.
I can’t believe they had to buff the Banshee again.
That and revert nerf buff Delta 😅
Never thought I would see the day when banshee could have 300k damage
It's not just King of Melee, it's Xi killer😂
This suit was nurfed once and buffed 4 times
The black lion returns stronger than ever
OMG H BROKE THE RECORD, 300L DMG, HE STILL HAD THE HIGHEST WITH 275K WITH THE BOUND DOC, BUT THIS IS JUST INSANE, WHOLE HEARTED CONGRATULATIONS TO AVENGER FO REACHING THE MILESTONE OF 300K DMG, WHICH NO ONE ELSE COULD ACHIEVE
This thing gives me the ouchies when I fight it.😢
Now Now lets hope for our little red bird
that poor Sazabi in the first match
Chat, we did it! The Banshee is BACK!
We are so back
Why the hell does this suit still not have an awakening like every other rx-0.
because it didn't awaken
Because the pilot at that time was Marida and only her and Rita Bernal are the RX-0 pilots that couldnt awakened the Unicorns (however in Rita case, she get helped by Jona Basta who's able to awaken the Phenex 2 years later after she got it)
