He was wielding a shotgun, though, so it might've been lag too.

...he was a bad, bad Titan. ;)

(WoL is fantastic for upping your damage - but there's ZERO value to staying IN the bubble after the initial placement - you get no buff at all, but you're a sitting duck for supers/shotguns/etc. If you're going to use WoL, you place your bubble, take up position NEAR it, then dip in as your buff fades. If you stay inside, you WILL die quickly.)

2 days ago I managed to melee kill a Titan inside his own bubble. That's a dragon I'll always chase now.

You were just playing a bad, bad Titan. That should rarely happen (unless there are a lot of you, or unless he's using weapons of light inside his bubble).

The only reason I even think the exotic caveat is necessary is the for the Helm of Saint 14. If you see a Titan with a mohawk drop a bubble, you know stepping into that bubble is a bad idea. :p

This one specific example is literally the only decent argument against Transmog exotics, and they could fix it by making the bubble itself have an alternate appearance.

I think it would be cool. You have fake helms that don't blind you, and normal helms you do More mind games.

Of course, the simplest thing would to be to not worry about looks. Just swap the abilities of one piece that you own with another piece that you own - all without touching the look at all.

But, I suppose, in PvP - people might rely on recognizing what someone is wearing so that they know what abilities to expect from them.

Is that an issue any-more? Are there so many combinations that they are hard to keep track of or do people look for what kit people are wearing and adjust accordingly?

I think if they lock exotic perks to exotic armor but let you shuffle legendary and below armor abilities, this could work.

Or Bungie could make look variants of each piece and let you pick the variants that fit well with each other.

And Bungie would have to get it's kilt physics perfect - we don't want anything clipping through the kilt that shouldn't clip through the kilt. And jumping up on things better be safe for work. :-)

OOOoooooooooooooohhhhhh, new armor type, kilts!!!!

Please note the fuzzy collar.

A bit linebacker, but I like how Ruin Wings bring the look together.

Nothing complements a shoulder/knee charge like a giant ass blade sticking out of your knee and shoulder

And I would argue even with my exo male titan, I can still achieve a smooth, trim profile, even if his body build is more Tight-End then Corner-Back.

Note: this is only an approximation of banana's titan's appearance.

That said: yes, you can look downright skinny with a female.

They look terrible on femtitans though IMO

Yeah... they just look weird with other armor. Also, the color.

I just started my first Titan last night. I was finally able to add all of the items to the vault so I could delete my second warlock without losing too many pieces (still lost some good weapons).

Anyway... I really like the simplicity of the basic armor you start with. It's non bulky and looks fairly decent in general. Once I hit level 20 am I going to be stuck with really bulky armor? Or are there some legendary/exotic pieces that will not force me to look like a transformer?

The only piece that is slimming, is the shield shoulder/armlets, I forget the name of them. When I had them on my female titan I felt almost naked with them.
