Quantum Powers

Quantum is the power level used in Infinity's Edge. In an IE run every power you get is a Quantum Power. Corruptions are the exception: they stay normal corruptions.

The power popup shows the level in the subtitle, for example "Uncommon (Quantum) - On damage taken".

Rules

• Glitched values: a Quantum Power shows the Glitched description and uses the Glitched numbers of that power. See Powers for the Basic, Upgraded and Glitched levels.
• No upgrades: Quantum Powers cannot be upgraded any further.
• Destroyed when swapped or sacrificed: the game warns you with "Warning: Quantum powers are destroyed when swapped or sacrificed!"
  • When you swap a Quantum Power out, it does not drop as a pickup. You get 2 or 3 Glitch Charges instead.
  • Quantum Powers cannot be salvaged for shards.
• Achievements: Steam achievements unlock for having 5 and 10 Quantum Powers equipped.
