I played last night as the relic holder for the Templar phase and whenever the Templar created a force field/bubble around me, I could not break it with the relic. If I pulled the right trigger to do a shield bash, I would lunge out of the bubble and die. I couldn't jump up either to do an area smash. Am I supposed to drop the relic and use my weapons to break the bubble and then pick up the relic again?

Try pressing R1/RB for a regular melee. If that doesnt work, yes drop the relic and switch to your special (fusion is best) or heavy (lmg, no rocket, learned that the hard way lol), break it quickly and pick up the relic again. 2nd way to avoid this is (we do this in my clan) whoever is holding the relic, is backed by someone. So its 2 people in the bubble. Relic holder doesnt have to drop, 2nd person can break the shield/shields, no super energy lost.
