The Bungie Armor is an Armor Permutation only available to Bungie Studios employees [1]. The armor is visually identical to the EOD Armor, save for its fire effect and the abscence of the EOD Armor's lights near the shoulders and center.
Trivia
- In 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, especially during invisibility-related games.
- Bungie is also advertising it on their website with the logos "Get hired, get fire" and "Game with Flame".
- The appearance of a flaming head is probably another reference to flaming ninjas, which Bungie commonly refers to.
- When Bungie was asked, "Since Frankie left does he still have his Flaming Helmet?" it was replied with, "The flame has been extinguished".
- It may also be referred to as E.O.B. (Employee Of Bungie) armor.
- The Bungie employees make a joke about the chest piece calling it a "man bra" in the 1/09/09 Bungie Podcast.
- The Bungie-Employee only rule was broken possibly for the first time by the Bungie staff giving the Permutation to Actor Nathan Fillion, as revealed in the 7/7/09 Podcast.
