Powers

Accelerate Metabolism

Activating this power emits radiation that increases the running speed, attack speed, Endurance recovery, and damage potential of all nearby allies. Affected heroes' metabolisms are increased so much that they become resistant to effects such as Sleep, Hold, Disorient, Immobilization and Endurance Drain.

Enervating Field

While this power is active, you irradiate a targeted foe, and all foes nearby, with a deadly dose of radiation. This radiation weakens exposed targets, decreasing the damage of their attacks. It also significantly weakens their resistance, so they will take much more damage from other attacks.

Fallout

After an ally falls in battle, you can activate this power to extract the energy from their body to deal a massive amount of Energy damage to any nearby foes. All affected foes are extremely weakened by the Fallout, and their chance to hit, Defense, Damage and Damage resistance is severely reduced.

Mutation

Using a concentrated burst of radiation, you can revive a fallen ally and Mutate them into a killing machine. The Mutated hero has increased damage, chance to hit, Endurance recovery, and attack speed and is protected from XP Debt for 90 seconds. The entire experience is very taxing on the Mutated hero, and they will soon be severely weakened. All effects of the Mutation will eventually wear off.
