Wares

Banshee sells 11 Legendary weapons at a time:

  • 6 weapons from the World Loot Pool (grouped under "Weapons") that rotate weekly, with two each from the Kinetic, Energy, and Power slots;
  • 5 "Featured" weapons that rotate daily, each from specific weapon types.

Each weapon will have a Power Level at the current Power floor, and will be at the base Masterwork tier.

Miscellaneous

These weapons were originally obtained from quests that were removed from the game and added to the Destiny Content Vault. They only appear in Banshee's inventory if their paired Exotic weapon is unlocked in Collections.

Featured

Banshee sells 5 "Featured" randomly selected weapons each day. It would normally be expected that the weapons would change at the daily reset: 10:00 AM PDT/9:00 AM PST (17:00 UTC).[1] However, as recent as the Season of the Witch, the weapons actually change at 5:00 PM PDT/4:00 PM PST (0:00 UTC) instead.

Each Featured weapon will correspond to a specific weapon type (e.g. Auto Rifles). The 5 weapon types remain the same for the duration of the current season.

The weapon types currently being sold during the Season of the Witch include:

Swords

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 These Swords can only be equipped and used by their respective class. All three will be sold in the same week, but the player's current class will determine which Sword shows up in Banshee's inventory. Switching to a character with a different class will change it to that class' Sword.

Weapons

The following list is the pool of weapons that Banshee can currently sell under "Weapons". They are largely comprised of weapons from the World Loot Pool, and can also be obtained as drops from Banshee's Gunsmith Weapon engrams.

Each week, Banshee will sell 2 random weapons from each of the following categories, for a total of 6. It would normally be expected that the weapons would change at the weekly reset on Tuesday, at 10:00 AM PDT/9:00 AM PST (17:00 UTC).[1] However, as recent as the Season of the Witch, the weapons actually change on Wednesday at 5:00 PM PDT/4:00 PM PST (Thursday at 0:00 UTC).

text-center Weapons listed below that are marked with this icon have Weapon Patterns and can be crafted. They can drop with Deepsight Resonance when purchased from Banshee. text-center Deepsight Harmonizers can also be used on these weapons. However, players can also unlock all of these weapons' patterns for free by completing certain quests from the Relic Conduit in the Enclave, found on the Savathûn's Throne World map. These quests are available to all players, and do not require owning The Witch Queen expansion.

Gunsmith Rank

"Think you can handle serious hardware? Prove it."
—Banshee-44

Complete Gunsmith bounties to increase your reputation with Banshee-44.

Players can increase their rank with Banshee by completing daily bounties, or by dismantling weapons and armor items. Daily bounties give 65 points each when completed and claimed. Dismantling Legendary and Exotic gear gives 6 points of reputation for each weapon or armor item dismantled. Rank is tied to the player's account, and carries over between characters.

Players will stop gaining reputation points after completing rank 16. Gunsmith Rank can be reset after rank 16 is completed, allowing more reputation to be gained. The player's rank will be reset automatically at the start of the next Season.

Notes

  • After the launch of the Season of the Haunted, Banshee's vendor screen animation changed from him crossing his arms to him holding a copy of Telesto icon2.jpg Telesto.
    • The Telesto could randomly disappear, causing Banshee to hold an invisible gun. This was identified as a bug by the developers.[3]
    • There were also reports of crashes from players when interacting with Banshee after this update.[4]
