I saw an interview with Jeff where he was talking about the early stages of Baptiste, before they named it Immortality Field and before they even had the final graphic for it. They had a literal lamp in place and would shout at each other to "shoot the lamp" during the testing phase. I say we stick with it.
In a game last night, not even thinking about it, I said "hit the lamp!" as our Rip Tire was being sent in and everyone around instinctively started shooting at it, getting them all killed by Junk. Afterwards they continued to call it the lamp so naturally. Perfect name. Quick and easy to say. Most people will know what you're talking about instantly.
