Matter Controller

General

The Matter Controller activates the superweapons of the Masari. Each mode has its own superweapon. Changing modes resets the superweapon timer. Its timers, however, take less time than the superweapons of the Hierarchy and Novus.

Light Mode

Uses Burning Wrath, creating a burning pillar of light energy that damages enemy units and structures. Its damage lies in its ability to be moved around freely. Researching Burst Threshold increases it's duration.you may also direct the burning pillar by selecting it although you may not see the green circle around it.

Dark Mode

Uses Matter Storm, creating a large area where enemy units are immobilized and damaged while friendly units have their Dark Matter Armor regenerated, or in the case of allied units, giving them temporary Dark Matter shields. Researching Dark Embrace increases its duration and allows it to heal Masari units.
