History of Banshee's Wail

Overview

Banshee's Wail is the intrinsic of The Lament, an Exotic Sword. Holding the aim button revs the blade, which increases damage and adds Shield-Piercing to all attacks, which makes it useful against Barrier Champions. Revved attacks build stacks; stacks raise heavy-attack damage and damage resistance. At full stacks a heavy attack spends them for a large hit.

The input is reported as either [Block] or the aim button. The stack details date from the Beyond Light era.
