Nah, it only blocks powers that either target a specific enemy or buff the player who runs into the bubble.

AOE powers like Vortex, Molecular Prime, Rhino Stomp and others still work on them. Also, if the enemy in question gets caught in Vortex, it pops his bubble offline.

Same about the Mutalist infested- these new enemies were made to stop ppl from equipping some strong weapon and then click'n run through the level without any tactics whatsoever. The Mutalists and the bubble Crewmen at least force ppl to have some sort of teamwork.

Because until now, Infested were laughably easy, especially in ODD. Just have a team of decent damage dealers (such as Mirage) with AOE weapons camp somewhere too high for the infested to reach, one Vauban spams Vortex and everyone shoots like crazy. Oh, and one Nekros desecrates everything once they're done because we want max loot.

And before Archwing (or an update before that, not sure), infested were a joke. Just take some large melee weapon like the scindo prime, use a mirage and roflcopter your way through the level.
