Overview

Radiation Assault is a standard power set that is a primary set for Guardians.

"You are able to harness the power of the atom to defeat foes at both close and far ranges. Radiation Assault attacks have a chance to inflict the Contaminated state on a target for a moderate amount of time. Powers that deal greater damage, have a longer recharge time and animation time have a greater chance to inflict Contaminated. Single target attacks hitting Contaminated targets causes a portion of that power's damage to also hit nearby foes. Radiation Assault attacks primarily deal smashing and energy damage, but this set is also capable of dealing some toxic damage."
