EM Pulse

You can unleash a massive pulse of electromagnetic energy. This EMP will drain the endurance and HP Regeneration of all affected targets and leave them incapacitated and disoriented for a while. Additionally, most machines and robots will take moderate high damage. However, this power uses a lot of endurance and leaves you unable to recover endurance for a while. You must be level 44 and have two other Electricity Mastery Powers before selecting this power.
