Banshee Silence Breaks Corpus Crewmen

[H3dsh0t]

One you have used silence, and it has ended, on a Corpus map, every single unit with a flux rifle will ignore Banshee entirely and will only shoot the sentinal. Its rather annoying but extremely easy to reproduce, it happens literally every time.

 

Steps to Reproduce:

 

1. Take Banshee to a corpus map

2. Use silence

3. Wait for it to end and run the mission. You will notice that the Elite Crewmen with the flux rifle will shoot nothing but your sentinal until its dead.

Am I the only one having this problem? Surely theres enough banshee players out there that have noticed this? lol

i was playing earlier today and noticed aswell, although every corpus aimed for my sentinal first. it's somewhat annoying..

I noticed a lot of corpus aiming for my sentinel the one time I played banshee recently... going back to give this one a test.

Ok, here are the results of my tests.

Steps:
1. Enter mission.
2. Cast Silence.
3. Wait for silence to end.
4. Go find some enemies.


Elite Crewmen definitely fire at, and only at, your sentinel.

Regular Crewmen and moas on the other hand, tend to fire toward/around/between you and your sentinel.

Either that or they.... uhhh.... ?

 

Also: fusion moas/prod crewmen still attack you normally.
