What kind of nerf would you want to see come to her Banshee? I've seen some ideas and spoken with a few players who think giving Banshees a health pool that players can deplete with a grenade or by shooting it.

Remove the speed effect and increase the sound of it. This way it's basically a hard to kill proximity with a more disruptive sound

I think the sound effect was actually nerfed a few short weeks after she came out.

Attackers found it incredibly frustrating to get flanked or swung by someone in close-ish proximity and dying because they weren't able to hear the footsteps.

If you remove the speed effect, wouldn't the Banshee just become a larger/indestructible Proximity Alarm?

That was the idea yeah, but the sound would bring back the annoyance somewhat of not being able to hear.

Hmm. I don't see how that would be a nerf to Melusi if we increase the annoyance of the gadget by buffing the sound.
