One of Warframe’s oldest playable Warframes is finally getting a much-needed new kit.
Since Warframe’s debut in 2013, it has transformed from a methodical and monochrome shooter into a riotous fast-paced space opera. The roster of playable Warframes has, in turn, grown with increasingly complex abilities.
Banshee, who debuted in the game’s first year, is now getting a mechanical makeover. A sound-based Warframe, her current kit has a focus on crowd control and allows her to push, stagger, and stun enemies with sonic powers. She can also apply a debuff that appears as a highlighted “weak spot.”
“It used to be the best kit in the game due to how important crowd control was,” said Warframe creative director Rebecca Ford. But in the 13 years since Warframe launched, a parade of new Warframes have joined the fray.
“Think of all the warframes that have come out since 2013 that touched that crowd control itch and, you know, are just as complicated as they get now in 2026,” said community director Megan Everett. Aside from the new Warframes, the team at Digital Extremes has also added mods that players can use to increase weak-point damage and emphasized area-of-effect abilities with Blast damage.
“It was time to put all of that into practice with the original crowd control and damage scaling frame that rewarded accuracy. So that’s very much the thesis of her touch up,” said Ford.
As one of the game’s oldest Warframes, Banshee has dedicated fans among the player base who have been clamoring for a rework. Digital Extremes frequently updates older frames to bring their abilities more in line with the ever-changing game.
“For a good amount of time now, the actual community has been like, ‘Please, Banshee, please,’” said Everett. “We were just at Anime Expo, and someone literally stood up and said, “Please rework Banshee.” And we’re like, “Oh!”
Digital Extremes regularly takes the community’s pulse through Devstreams and events like TennoCon.
“We have kind of like a running roster of what the community are actually, like, hungry for,” said Everett. “Banshee has been one of the top of the list for a good amount of time now… she is due.”
Banshee’s rework will be available as part of Warframe’s fall update, Iceblade of Narin, alongside Deluxe skins for Banshee and Qorvex, a new ice-themed Warframe, and Citrine Prime.
PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
