So I was futzing around on Mars today with my Mythoclast, trying to stock up on some Iron (because 80% of my junk requires it -_-) when I started noticing my Chain Of Woe mysteriously activating (even though I was no where near enemies and on my speeder).

Well, as far as I can tell, if you have the Mythoclast readied you will have your COW and such abilities activate whenever ANYONE in the area performs the feat required to activate it (in my case, precision kills).

At first I thought it required another person to also be using the rifle, as the other person* in the area was using one too. However, he switched to the Raid AR and it still activated my COW boost.

Also, to clarify "in the area", this was observed at the spawn zone of Mars. He was down in the pit where Vex and Cabal duke it out. I was in the loot cave where monsters come out during the "Defend the Warsat" for that zone. So I'm pretty sure the only limit for the binding effect to initiate is that the other player has to be in the same "observable zone" as you. So your friend over in the Buried City probably wouldn't initiate the binding effect, but I can't confirm or deny that yet.

It'd be interesting to see if this also applies to team mates of a Titan killing things with their charged melee ability...will his Force Shield activate?

Clever girl, Bungie. Very clever.
