About

| ~ In-game description |
Made for supporting fast-moving team members, Mind Energy is S4 League's primary healing weapon. Holding Mind Energy in hand reveals allies' locations and health bars, allowing the user to find injured teammates quickly. Once in range, activating the weapon releases a stream of energy similar to Mind Shock that locks onto an allied player until they travel out of range. Each tic of the stream restores part of the target's health.
Mind Energy can affect allies through walls and other obstacles including those generated by the Block skill.
Also similar to Mind Shock, Mind Energy must be aimed in order to heal effectively. To heal for the full amount, the player must correctly aim in two ways: the crosshairs must align with the target and the user's elevation must match that of the target. The healing will be a 'Critical Hit' if these conditions are met, while not aiming the crosshairs, or being above or below the target, will weaken the healing significantly.(Graphic Desired)
This weapon is one of two healing weapons in the game with the other being Rescue Gun.

Tips
- Mind Energy can heal other team members only; it cannot heal the user.
- Hide behind teammates and obstacles to avoid damage while using Mind Energy.
- In Touchdown mode, heal the player holding the Fumbi to increase the distance they can travel.
- Players can also heal teammates behind the carrier looking for a rebound to increase their chances of scoring.
- In Deathmatch mode, healing between fights lessens the chances of your allies falling to enemy ambushes.
- When targeted by Mind Energy, players can help the healer aim, and heal more effectively, by slowing their movement.
Trivia
- Though Mind Energy cannot kill another player, S4 League's data file set includes a kill icon for it. This was probably done to prevent a system error.
- Before its update, Mind Energy previously healed at a slower rate, at around two times per second. (source needed)
