Banshee mistress

The Banshee Mistress is fought in the Smoking Kills quest. To enter her chamber, players must have a Banshee voice. At some point during the battle, when she is low on HP, she will call her minions to help. When this happens, four ranging NPC's will attack. When you kill her, the NPC's vanish and a cutscene is played.

It is strongly recommended that players wield Masked earmuffs before attempting to fight her and also whilst in the cave; otherwise there is a very high risk of death.

Habitat(s)

 * Desert Slayer Dungeon in Pollnivneach.

Fighting Strategies
It is recommended that players wear their best Dragonhide armour, as the Mistress uses a magic-based melee attack. Throughout the fight, the Mistress will randomly hit players with an acoustic attack, causing the player to fall over. If auto-retaliate is off, then the player will not attack the Mistress again, possibly causing the player to die.

During the fight, players should stand next to the Mistress, using Protect from Melee and eating when necessary. When the Mistress says, 'Minions, aid me', the player should quickly swap to Protect from Range or the player could be hit for up to 72 damage (The rangers hit a max of 18 and there are 4 of them.) Players should then watch their health and prayer carefully and eat as often as required.
