Yeah if she really could control it that much there is a lot of options she could go for. like some kind of aerodynamic shield in the direction she is flying when she is alone. A more conic shaped bubble to not fight air as much when she need to transport people a great speed. She could probably include some kind of air intakes to let small amount of air in so she don't need the rebreather all the time. Of course at that point she would be able to save "Presets" to quickly recall the right setting for any occasion :p

2016-06-21 18:36:28 +0000 UTCShe has to figure out how to control the shape though. We don't know if it's a "she thinks the shape" or "the shape adapts the sphere to surroundings" or if it's like "you have to do the equilent of 3d modelling techiques with the sphere to make it do what you want. " If she has full mental control over the shape, why not just make it skin tight up until lips to where it travels halfway down her throat and stops, so she can breath normally but is otherwise invulerable (also holding the orb in place so she doesn't accidentally drop it until she wills the shield gone.)

2016-06-20 19:52:53 +0000 UTCI meant "it" :p

2016-06-20 17:36:28 +0000 UTCShe can make them oval... basically any sphereoid. She hasn't figured out any other shapes yet. Whether that's possible at all or if it's even something she can unlock on the orb skill grid first remains to be seen.

2016-06-20 13:57:05 +0000 UTCShe had a large shield as well with the fight against V. I was covering his whole aura. The shield seem smart enough to alter it's shape in an hemisphere when she's on the ground so there is surely a way to manipulate it's shape further.

2016-06-20 12:37:32 +0000 UTCI imagine she could make the sphere bigger to contain more oxygen (as she did at the press conference)... but then aerodynamic drag would also increase proportionately, potentially slowing her down.

2016-06-20 10:41:08 +0000 UTCOut of curiosity, and because reading through the comic again just the find the pages that mention it is too much of a bother right now, Sydney is unable to make non-spherical shields, yes? Presumably pending spending a point on the skill tree?
