*In Halo: Combat Evolved, besides another vehicle the [[Rocket Launcher]] is the only weapon powerful enough to down a Banshee with a single shot on the higher difficulty settings. To increase your chances of defeating one without wasting your shots separate yourself from the rest of the action. You don't want to have to divide your attention between the Banshee and your surroundings. Once you are in a relatively sheltered position, focus entirely on downing the Banshee. | *In Halo: Combat Evolved, besides another vehicle the [[Rocket Launcher]] is the only weapon powerful enough to down a Banshee with a single shot on the higher difficulty settings.

*If need be, get the Banshees attention with small arms fire | *If need be, get the Banshees attention with small arms fire. Get the Banshee to turn and start a strafing run on your position; the pilot will not break off his run until he kills you, you kill him, or he gets very close to you. | ||
*When using the Rocket Launcher to defeat Banshees, aim slightly below the center of the "body" into an area that should be centered between the two cannons and slightly above them, and fire away. Because the banshee pilot will always strafe at a downward angle, he will fly directly into your oncoming rocket. Although one rocket will always bring down the Banshee, it is a good idea to have your launcher fully loaded with two rockets before you intend to use it. Also be aware that the Banshee will still have forward momentum after you bring it down, so watch out for it crashing because it can kill you, ruining a good move. | *When using the Rocket Launcher to defeat Banshees, aim slightly below the center of the "body" into an area that should be centered between the two cannons and slightly above them, and fire away.

*On the level [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]], you can use the pistol to take down the Banshee. It will take 20 rounds to take it down, but by staying in the downed life-pod and shooting the vehicle at close range you'll be able to defeat it. | *On the level [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]], you can use the pistol to take down the Banshee.
