Strange dreams disturbed me last night about 'Tecthulu', 'die Glocke' (the bell) and 'Xerum 525'.
This circumstance lead me to an idea about a new item suggestion, the 'Dimensional Phase Shifter'.

The 'DPS' when used by an Agent, grants him/her the ability to challenge another player of the other faction to a glyph duell.
A possible scenario:

During an Anomaly measurement, the fight for a volatile or shard Portal, for example 20 vs 20. Both factions fight hard, then suddenly one of the Agents uses a 'DPS' on the target Portal.
A window appears in the scanner of the player who used it wich shows a zoomed detailed view of the surroundings, buildings streets even hydrants show up, a really detailed view.
The player who used the item is able to see any agents of the other faction for 10 sec, he or she have to choose one of the players wich were seen in the window.

Then a flash of XM and the glyph battle begin.

You have to glyph a duell against one of the other agents surrounding you. When this happens the Portal itself turn purple, it shifts out into another dimension and nobody of both of the factions can't attack nor defend nor recharge during the duell.
While the competition is running a timer runs too, faster for every glyph sequence wich were typed in correct from both of the duelling players.
The One who wins the battle (the fastest or the one with the less mistakes) turns the portal to their faction and further immunize this portal for 1, 3 or 5 Minutes (it can't be attacked during this time) depending of the lvl of the item which can vary from I - III, thus also means the difficulty of the glyph duell which can range from 3 to 5 glyphs.
These items could be twice as rare as a virus, you can only use one 'DPS' on a portal every hour. When used on a shard Portal the shard got locked on it, phased out with the portal even when the jump window appears. (could grant the ability to lock shards)
Outside of the Anomalie Zones the immunization time of a Portal expands to 10, 30, 60 Minutes.

Please share your thoughts.
