w.r.t. another chest and bubbles (Destiny)

During the Templar fight, if you happen to wipe, you'll notice the scoreboard tracks the number of times he teleports (which we all know is the conditional for the '5th' chest to spawn). However, during the Atheon fight the scoreboard tracks the number of Time's Vengeance, which leads many to believe this is the conditional (0 TVs) for another chest to spawn. TV can be adverted by simply opening the portal as normal, but getting the fuck out of Dodge without bothering with Oracles.

While playing on Hard, my team encountered the "no one teleports for the first few timestreams" glitch. We were burning the bastard down without TV, but eventually someone died and then 1 person got timestream'd. Cody has also encountered this glitch during his team's Flawless Raider runs. While he says it is repo-able by not dying at all during the Raid up until that point, I seem to recall our team having at least one death/wipe before the Atheon fight, so it could have just been mere coincidence.

Now, for your Bubble concern, I've played as Defender multiple times as well. However, since I primarily play on Hard now we tend to stay away from our Bubbles when the timestream opening is near, as on Hard you will get a suppression field around you (like when you take out the Templar's shield), which a Bubble will only interfere with when you're trying to remove the field.

I'll try getting my team to play on Normal later to investigate the Bubble idea, but I swear I've been teleported before while sucking my thumb in one.
