Hey now.... here's a thought.
One of the conditions of the Vidmaster Pledge is 'to never shoot where I could use grenades', meaning to attack only with fists and grenades, right?
Well, the other day when I was doing the LD Pillar daily challenge, I encountered one of the BOBs on that level; specifically, the one near the beginning of the Boneyard Invasion phase 1 sequence that directly follows the Bugger cave fight.
While approaching this BOB, I noticed something interesting.... he was holding a Concussion Rifle, I could see that, but he refused to shoot at me for some reason, even though he was looking right at me and I was definitely in range. He chucked a sticky my way, and ran up to punch me when I got close enough, but all the while never even attempted to shoot me with his ConkR. I know that not all BOBs will refuse to shoot at you, but it looks to me that like one in particular seems to have taken the Vidmaster Pledge, hahahaha~
....what does this mean? I have no idea. I've no idea if this is just a coincidence, or if it actually means something significant related to the BOBs. I DO think that we need to take note of the little, seemingly unimportant things though. (These should be FACTS, mind, not baseless rumors that we make up like the stuff about Buck or Brutes or the shellshocked Marine being BOBs. >.>)
I actually just now came up with one theory... I don't know whether this is the case either, but I wonder if it could be the case that there is a 'vidmaster BOB' who follows the vidmaster pledge in each level... a specific BOB that you need to kill, not just one of the several that shows up. That particular comment in the Vidmaster Pledge about only punching or using grenades could be a hint from Bungie for us to target specific BOBs.
I'd love to know the thoughts of the OP, as well as others on this theory.
Very interesting theory. Definitely worth looking into.
i was playing the package on legendary the other day and encountered a bob at the final part of level standing right next to the wraith spawn. He had a concussion rifle and did not shoot until i shot him..
