The power to utilize magnetism to launch projectiles. Technique of Magnetism Manipulation. Variation of Projectile Attacks.
Also Called[]
- Railgun Effect
Capabilities[]
The user can use the pressure of magnetic fields to propel metal as projectiles.
Applications[]
- Attraction & Repulsion
- Bullet Projection
- If electromagnetism is used, the projectile may also be charged with electricity for an additional explosive impact.
Variations[]
- Using magnets as conductive rails or coils to accelerate the metal projectile via electric currents and magnetism, effectively creating a railgun or coilgun, respectively.
- The railgun creates a very powerful bullet, as it generates high amounts of heat and tremendous velocity, which in turn can cause a very deadly impact.
- The coilgun does not have as much firepower as the railgun, but does not require conductive rails, which would be less time-consuming in between shots, allowing rapid fire.
- Using the attraction of magnetism, attract one large bundle of scrap metal and slam it against one end of a connector, causing another bundle of scrap metal at the other end to fire off with tremendous velocity and force by using constraint to create acceleration between two objects, creating a gauss gun.
Associations[]
- Bullet Projection
- Coilgun Proficiency
- Electricity Manipulation
- Electromagnetic Weaponry
- Electromagnetism Manipulation
- Gravity Projectile
- Magnetic Weaponry
- Magnetism Manipulation
- Projectile Attacks
- Projectile Enhancement
- Railgun Proficiency
Limitations[]
- Ammunition available is a very important factor to the technique.
- At incredible heat, magnetism will be destroyed.
- Large energy consumption may be required for firing.
- Speed of projectile causes friction and heat may cause projectile to melt.
- Magnetism Negation
