: Allow the player to save after a successful blood run, but before crossing
: the bridge. I don't want to die in the next part of the level and have to
: do that blood run again. Then disable the PB once the player has crossed
: over the bridge and entered the next part of the level.

I can live with this, and the idea of a shield power-up down in the area before the blood run is excellent - it would be a failsafe for those who arrive without adequate shields, but would remain unused for those who do. Still, I rally find use-once or disabled PB's a kind of cruel joke - not that Bungie didn't use this technique, too - need I mention Begging for Mercy? My preference remains to give the player choice - leave the PB active, but extract a price for revisiting it in the form of more monsters to kill. A limited number of regenerating beetles would work well for this.
