This causes high smashing and energy damage on contact and reduces the target's movement and recharge speed slightly. The force of the impact can cause some lethal damage over time. Crushing Blast awards 1 stack of Impulse.

Disrupting Torrent

You form the potential energies around you into a cone of surging energy that crashes into the foes in front of you. This torrent causes moderate smashing and energy damage on impact, and has a chance to knock affected targets down. Affected targets will also have their regeneration rate reduced slightly. Disrupting Torrent consumes all stacks of Impulse and its knockdown chance, damage and regeneration debuff scale with the number of consumed stacks. If used when you have 5 stacks of Impulse, this power has a chance to immediately refresh Coalescence.

Energetic Strike

You form the potential energies around you into a massive surge of force that empowers your fists to deliver a devastating blow to a single target. This blow causes extreme smashing and energy damage on impact and will reduce the target's damage. The force from this power's impact is so great that it is likely to disorient most foes. Energetic Strike consumes all stacks of Impulse and its damage debuff and damage scale with the number of consumed stacks. If used when you have 5 stacks of Impulse, this power's stun effect will last long and Energetic Strike has a chance to immediately refresh Coalescence.

Impulse

As you use your Kinetic Assault powers, you will naturally build and consume stacks of Impulse. Each stack of Impulse gives you a recharge bonus. Impulse can then be spent on Disrupting Torrent, Kinetic Shockwave, Energetic Strike and Mass Driver to increase their damage and their secondary effects.

Type Powerset-Specific
Effects Self +Recharge


Mass Driver

You form the potential energies around you into a concentrated mass aimed at a single target. This causes superior smashing and energy damage on impact and reduces the target's movement and recharge speed. The force of the impact causes light lethal damage over time. If you have less than 5 stacks of Impulse, Mass Driver will award 2 Impulse. If you have 5 stacks of Impulse this power will deal additional damage and reduce the target's smashing, lethal and energy resistance moderately for a short time and this power will also have a small chance to recharge Coalescence.

Kinetic Bolt

You form the potential energies around you into a small bolt of kinetic energy that you launch at a single target. This bolt causes light smashing and energy damage on impact and reduces their recharge rate and movement speed slightly. The force of the impact can cause the target to suffer additional lethal damage over time. Kinetic Bolt awards 1 stack of Impulse.

Kinetic Lance

You form the potential energies around you into a lance of energy that you fire at a single target. This lance pierces the target, causing an initial burst of extreme energy and lethal damage that then causes a minor amount of damage over time. Affected foes will also have their movement speed and recharge rate reduced for a short time. Kinetic Lance awards 3 stacks of Impulse if the interruptible version is used, if instant-cast this power will award 2 stacks of Impulse. This is a sniper attack, and is best fired from a distance, as it can be interrupted. If you have more than 97% To-Hit, this attack becomes instant-cast.
