Kinetics
Overview
You are a master at manipulating and transferring kinetic energy. You can manipulate the potential energy found in objects to aid your allies or weaken your foes.

Powers
The following are powers in the Kinetics powerset.
Fulcrum Shift
Fulcrum shift drains the power of a targeted foe and all foes nearby, transferring it to all adjacent allies, you, and those near you. Affected foes will deal less damage, while your affected allies will deal more. The more foes that are affected, the more power you and your allies receive. Fulcrum Shift can dramatically turn the tide of a battle.
Increase Density
Increases an ally's mass, freeing him from any disorientation, immobilization, or hold effects and leaving him resistant to such effects for a while. Increase Density also protects the target from knockbacks, repels, and enemy teleportation, as well as smashing and energy damage. Because the target grows more dense, his movement speed is slowed. Although the damage resistance and slowing effects will not stack with multiple applications, the rest of the effects of Increase Density will. You cannot use this power on yourself.

Siphon Speed
You can siphon the speed from a targeted foe, slowing his movement and attack rate while boosting your own.
Speed Boost
You can hasten a single targeted ally. The target's movement speed, attack rate, and endurance recovery are all greatly increased and the target gains resistance to slow effects. You cannot use this power on yourself.
Transference
Transference drains an enemy of some of his endurance and transfers that endurance to all allies near the affected foe. You can use Transference to recover endurance for yourself as well as your allies.
Transfusion
Transfusion drains an enemy of some endurance and reduces the target's regeneration rate, and transfers that energy, in the form of hit points, to all allies near the affected foe. You can use Transfusion to heal yourself as well as your allies.
