Operation Shieldwall: Houston, We Have a Giant Banshee Problem

Yeah, you saw that right. The last N7 Weekend Operation ended in failure, as the lofty Allied Goal asked for the death of 3,000,000 Banshees. It didn’t happen, and for good reason. Those things are among some of the toughest enemies to bring down unless you’ve got the right squadmates with you.

This coming weekend heralds yet another N7 Weekend Operation: “Operation Shieldwall.” BioWare is asking for a little more dedication this time around, so be prepared to spend some long hours online. Beginning on Friday, May 25th at 6:00PM PST until Sunday, May 27th at 5:00PM PST on all platforms, BioWare is setting the following terms in order to make Shieldwall a success:

Allied Goal: Promote 50,000 characters
Squad Goal: Promote 3 characters

And because “Operation Silencer” was a failure, BioWare added the following:

Special Circumstance: Due to the failure of Operation SILENCER, more banshees will spawn with Reaper enemies and might also spawn with other enemies.

If you’re fighting Cerberus or Geth and think you won’t be hearing that wailing, you’d be wrong. Is it too late to stick some earplugs in?

The following will be awarded upon completion:

Squad Goal Success: Squad members awarded a Commendation Pack.
Allied Goal Success: All players awarded a Victory Pack (high chance of containing a Rare weapon).

Ready to rumble? Maybe you’ll see some GGSers floating around out there too.
