Bungie Armor: Difference between revisions

The Bungie Armor at the Appearance screen.

The Bungie Armor is an Armor Permutation only available to Bungie Studios employees ^[1]. The armor resembles heavily the EOD Armor except the flaming helmet.

In much contrast to the Recon Armor, which for a time was believed to be a Bungie-only armor set, the Bungie armor will not be given out to anyone outside the company. As a con, however, the flaming head is still visible even when in Active Camo, negating its usefulness. This could lead to many frustrating deaths, during invisibility-related games.
There is a joke among fans that a cloaked wearer would resemble a campfire, especially on maps such as Valhalla or Standoff.
Bungie is also advertising it on their website with a logo "Get hired, get fire".
The appearance of a flaming head is probably another reference, to the ninjas with flaming heads, which Bungie commonly refers to.
The only physical difference from the EOD chest armour is that it doesn't have the LED lights on it.
When Bungie was asked, "Since Frankie left does he still have his Flaming Helmet?" it was replied with, "The flame has been extinguished".
It is unknown what program (Hayabusa or MJOLNIR) the armour belongs to; however, it's speculated to be non-canon as it purely for decoration.
Also it may be referred to as E.O.B(Employee Of Bungie) Armor.
Once killed, the fire on top of the players who has the flaming chest piece head extinguishes.
