Powers

In addition to your chosen weapon, in single- and multiplayer you have the ability to use a set of Powers to help with your battles. These abilities are earned in similar fashion to weapons. However, equipping them for use is a bit more complex. You pick Powers and place them on a six-by-six grid. Each Power has its own unique shape that changes based on what level the Power is. The shapes can be rotated, so it is possible for players to select numerous Powers of low levels and piece them together to fill up the entire grid.

Powers have a variety of functions. Some act as emergency healing. Others provide a powerful offensive or defensive capability. Others act as status enhancements. In total, there are 59 Powers to choose from. Most are available in all game modes. However, some are exclusive to either single- or multiplayer.
