| "'''Banshee launch'''" is a term used to refer to numerous [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshee]]-related [[super jumping]] techniques. ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', ''[[Halo 2]]'', and ''[[Halo 3]]'' all have at least one Banshee launch.

| == ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' == | | ==Rocket Launcher WalkThrough== |
| In the first ''Halo'' game, the Banshee model is very different, and the Wingtip Method (described below) does not work. However, with 500% shields (as part of a gametype) or an [[overshield]], a different technique can be attempted.
| |
|
| |
|
| Starting with the Banshee flipped upside-down like in the other launches, simply [[PFR]] under the lower wing in the hole between the two bars that form the wing. If timed correctly, the trick can send the player up to the [[Invisible wall|invisible ceiling]] in [[Blood Gulch]].
| | Firstly, grab a banshee and a [[Rocket Launcher]], and flip the banshee onto its back (do not flip it back onto its front). Then, stand on the tip of the wing of the banshee that is on the floor, aim the rocket launcher at the tip of the wing that is in the air and fire. The rocket will explode pushing the opposite wing tip down and your wing up. This will propelle you into the air, sending you so high that you can see over the boundaries of some levels. |

| == Wingtip Method ==
| | NOTE: You MUST have overshield on. |
| The Wingtip Method is a common trick used to Banshee launch. It works in ''Halo 2'' and in ''Halo 3''.
| |
|
| |
|
| The basic method is to acquire some weapon that does a high amount of splash damage. From there, a player must find a Banshee and flip it onto its back. The player must stand on top of the wingtip that is touching the ground, and use their explosive weapon on the opposite wingtip. Assuming that the player survives the splash damage inflicted by their weapon, they will be launched to great heights, in ''Halo 2'', this method often allows players to see beyond a map's boundaries.
| | ==Grenade WalkThrough== |
|
| |
|
| The method can be performed with a [[M41 SPNKR|Rocket Launcher]] or a [[fuel rod cannon]], though the player will need an Overshield if they are not standing on the very tip of the Banshee's wing. Players can also throw a [[grenade]] and shoot it out of the air, detonating it prematurely, this trick, however, ''requires'' an Overshield. A much safer, but ''Halo 3'' only, method is to simply use a [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|Gravity Hammer]], as players are immune to the splash damage dealt by their own Hammer.
| | Firstly, grab a banshee and some [[Grenades]], and flip the banshee onto its back (do not flip it back onto its front). Then, stand on the tip of the wing of the banshee that is on the floor, throw the grenade at the tip of the wing that is in the air and fire. The grenade will explode pushing the opposite wing tip down and your wing up. This will propel you into the air, sending you so high that you can see over the boundaries of some levels. |
|

|
| In ''Halo 2'', the trick can also be performed using the black shields in the maps [[Relic]] and [[Turf]], but an Overshield is required to survive the trick. The host of a game can use a shield to rapidly ascend to the top of Relic's tower. Another way to do this is to make sure you are at the very wingtip, and the Banshee is upside down. Flip it and you should go flying a good distance.

| == ''Halo 3'' ==
| |
| Most of the methods were removed or made more difficult in ''Halo 3''. The trick was likely removed to balance multiplayer gameplay. However, in addition to the Wingtip Method described above (which is still usable with a Gravity Hammer), a new method can be used in ''Halo 3''.
| |
| | |
| Grab an Overshield, and position a Banshee so that only the tips of the wings are touching the ground. Jump onto one of the Banshees wings until you are on the bigger of the two rods that form the wing, and stick a [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|Plasma Grenade]] to the tip of the wing you are standing on. If performed properly, you will be launched incredibly high up.
| |
| | |
| This is similar to a method used in the Halo 3 multiplayer map [[Sandtrap]]. If the player manages to flip an [[M312 Elephant|Elephant]], the screen will say to "Hold RB to flip...wait, what? How did you do that?". If the player stands inside the Elephant while flipping it, he will be launched incredibly high into the air.
