- Passive: Experienced Technician
- Active: Repulsion Dash
- Active: Magnetic Bulwark
- Active: Magnetism Spurt
- Active: Superconductivity Thrusters
Kyle acquires Magnetic Force by using other skills. When his shield depletes completely, he gradually regains it and Magnetic Force.
Kyle dashes forward at enemies, dealing damage and recovering a small amount of Magnetic Force.
Deploys a front-facing barrier that shields players against enemy attacks. Depending on the type of projectile, it auto-generates Magnetic Force.
When Kyle takes damage, Magnetic Force depletes instead of HP or Shields. After a certain threshold, Magnetic Force detonates outward, damaging nearby enemies.
Allows Kyle to fly for short periods. He slams the ground when landing, damaging enemies in the landing zone and consuming Magnetic Force to empower his attack.
If you enjoy stepping into the heavily armored boots of a tank class, Kyle will help you push your endgame even further.
He’s a straightforward, simple-to-play class that relies heavily on weapons to deal damage, so keep upgrading your modules and increasing your Weapon Mastery to utilize Kyle effectively.
