Phalanx "shield-bash" flying glich

Bungie please fix this glitch. it seems pretty well known in the destiny community but it still hasn't been fixed. the glitch is where a phalanx will melee you but instead of being pushed back and taking damage, you will fly across the map and die from fall damage, or you will be flung into a wall and die instantly. this is especially annoying in this weeks nightfall (shield brothers for those of you who may be reading at a later date). as if it isn't hard enough already with the grounded (as jumping is normally a big mechanic in the main boss fight) and trickle (your abilities recharge slower) are two of the modifiers, we have to deal with being cautious to avoid being melee'd by the phalanxes (and there are a lot of them). please comment to share your opinions on this matter, and please try to bring this to bungie's attention thank you for reading my article.

  • This is just a technical problem, the physics in Destiny appear to be chaotic at times, it's due to the hit registration between you and the offending Cabal in question. The shield is meant to damage you and push you slightly, but, it pushes you into the ground, obviously, you can't drill down into the planet, so, the game fires you forward, due to all the momentum of trying to push you down, resulting in colliding with something and killing you. The collision is fatal, because vehicles share the same collisions and need to result in death when a guardian is struck.
