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. Kinetics is a primary powerset for Defenders and a secondary powerset for Controllers and Corruptors.

Power Tables

The Kinetics powerset is available as a primary set for Defenders, and as a secondary set for Corruptors and Controllers. The following table shows which powers are available and at what level:

	Power	Level as Primary	Level as Secondary	Effect
	Transfusion	1	1	Ranged (Targeted Area of Effect), Foe -Endurance, -Regeneration, Team Heal
	Siphon Power	1	2	Ranged, Foe -Damage, Team +Damage
	Repel	2	4	Toggle: Self Area of Effect, Foe Knockback
	Siphon Speed	6	10	Ranged, Foe -Speed, Self +Speed, +Recharge
	Increase Density	8	16	Ranged, Ally Special
	Speed Boost	12	20	Ranged, Ally +Speed, +Recharge, +Recovery, Resist Slow
	Inertial Reduction	18	28	Point Blank Area of Effect, Allies +Jump
	Transference	26	35	Ranged (Targeted Area of Effect), Foe -Endurance, Team +Recovery, Special
	Fulcrum Shift	32	38	Ranged (Targeted Area of Effect), Foe -Damage, Team +Damage

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, the caster, and those near the caster. 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 melee 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.

Inertial Reduction

You can reduce your inertia, along with that of all nearby allies. The affected allies can then jump incredible distances for a while.

Repel

Repel creates a zone of kinetic energy that violently repels nearby foes. Each foe that is repelled costs additional endurance.

You can siphon the power from a targeted foe, reducing his damage potential. The power is transferred back to you, increasing your own damage potential and that of all nearby allies.

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.
