Usage[]

When used, Air Support Charges will throw a floating ball onto the ground held up by an electric tether. The Air Support ability will then be deployed after a delay of a few seconds. Air Support Charges have a 10-minute cooldown (5 minutes with Engineering Intrinsic Rank 2) in between uses, with a cooldown timer visible on the Gear wheel menu. Players may only bring 200 charges per mission.

Air Support abilities are locked behind certain Landing Crafts, noted in the chart below. Acquiring the Landing Craft will unlock their respective ability for all Landing Crafts, which can be changed in the Landing Craft Customize screen.

Ordis will deploy a Med Tower (which resembles a Life Support Capsule). It will heal the player for 100 health on each activation and may be activated up to 25 times by any player in the squad.

It can also be used as a small wall as it does block Tenno, enemies, and possibly gunfire from passing through it. You can stand on top of the towers to avoid melee type enemies.

After being summoned, further uses of Air Support will heal him. After 5 minutes, Kahl and his squad will depart. For every extra squad member using this Air Support charge, one additional unit will be added to Kahl's squad.

Note that ally names will be randomized.
