I don’t know how common knowledge this is and I haven’t really seen it discussed here so I wanted to share it if it helps someone. I’m G100 with Ion and what I have been doing for a long time now is catching minion bullets with vortex shield and throwing them into enemies for practically free kills.
Spectres and stalkers especially are really trigger happy against titans and if your shield is already depleted they can’t do any damage to you while giving you free bullets. I’ve also noticed that even grunt bullets seem to convert into titan bullets when picked up with the shield and do good damage to titans which is especially effective against smart players who won’t fire in your shield.
Enemy pilot turrets can also be aggroed by hitting them at least once with any weapon and it’s really satisfying to turn their bullets against their users and other enemies although they will do notable damage to your titan if you run out of energy. Reapers are pretty much the only exception because their projectiles seem to turn into marshmellows when picked up and do pitiful damage against anything which I’ve always found weird since when they fire them it does a lot of damage.
