Death spell 3. Banshee.

The third week, the third spell, BANSHEE!

A little out of focus, and a bit small, but this picture suits the banshee well. There are so many different things a banshee could look like. (You know with being a mythological creature and stuff.) I think Kingsisle did a good job on that.Just look at the Kraken. There are soooo many different things that it looks like in different games and movies. It could look like a giant squid, or like in clash of the titans, a giant cloud of darkness. But in wizard101, i think it came out looking just right.

Now, about that Banshee.... It is a good solid damaging card, and does not take much pips. Although it does not heal you, it is a very good card for lower lvls, especially in Krock. Most of the mob monsters there have about 250 health. So the banshee(most of the time) will kill them in one shot.

But sometimes it will come just short of that.





So you need a death blade to finish him off.


Unlike the last couple cards, this card IS a pretty useless card in the higher lvls. It takes too many pips to be a good finishing move, is not damaging enough to use for a good damaging card in say, Moo Shu, so i find absolutely no purpose of this card in the higher lvls, except one. I keep one Banshee card in my deck for one reason, and one reason alone. To help out my friends in the lower lvl world's like Krock. Now don't get me wrong, Banshee is a great card if your in the lower lvls, but for those of us over lvl 30,I don't find much use for it.

Next post will be a good one, Vampire!


VIVA WIZARD101!!!

Another good spell review.

I agree with you. This card really rocks at the lower to mid-level, but once you get Vampire, it quickly falls to the wayside.

And is it my imagination, or do Banshees seem to fizzle less than other spells? I've always had good luck with them.

thank you. :)about the fizzle thing with the banshee, well it is supposed to me random, but maybe there's a glitch with it that ups it accuracy. Or just pure randomness. who knows? Thanks again for reading!
