So there I was, soloing Reapers (silver) on Giant with my BatGuard, happy in the knowledge that as I was standing on a ramp (the long one in front of and slightly to the right of extracton) the Banshee I was set to Falcon Punch couldn't grab me. Wait though, WTF! - she grabbed and sync-killed me anyway. Have I been labouring under an illusion - can bosses sync-kill on a ramp?

Yes, if you and the enemy are on the same vertical level.

I'm pretty shure your mispelling Banshee for Fiend and ramp for 250 yards away in another building.
but yeah, fmulder just said it can happen

Yes, if you and the enemy are on the same vertical level. Sounds logical, especially as the ramp in question is pretty wide - so I must've made the mistake of being level with the Banshee. Cheers

Fmulder is exactly right. She can sync-kill you if you are vertically even with her. She can flat out Magnet-hand you back if her timing and your lag are particularly coordinated against you. But,[tangenton] all it takes is the tiniest bit of vertical and she can't sync you. On a lot of the smaller ramps, Ghost for example, you can ramp-screw banshees all over the place. Was having fun trolling them on my Volsent doing exactly that with Heavy Melee soaks after I got GiP'd into at least one other BSNer. Banshees that can't sync kill volus literally cannot kill volus if you're timing your Heavy Melee damage-soaks right. [tangentoff]

Let me put my nitpicker hat on for a second... There is an additional wrinkle to the not-being-synced-on-ramp, in addition to not standing at the same level: the syncing units has to be on the ramp itself for you to be safe. If they are on level ground, they will sync you, even if you are standing on the ramp and are therefore at a different height. Mgamerz published a video where he demonstrates it by increasing the sync range of a praetorian for ease-of-viewing. Lag and magnet hands will get you a lot more I guess, but this is a handy little detail that is good to know

[tangentoff]Also, assuming said Banshee manages to fist said Volus, said Volus has a high chance of falling through the map and respawning at the LZ. Never, EVER, underestimate the survivability of a Volus.

If the banshee is not on the ramp but you are, you're still vulnerable.
