Ability

Each Legend has three abilities: one Passive, one Tactical, and one Ultimate.

Passive abilities
These abilities do not have cooldowns and are either always active or able to be used. Most Passives work under, but some of them are disabled.

Tactical abilities
These abilities are used a lot more compared to the Ultimates, as they have a lower cooldown. They can be activated by pressing the default key on PC, the  LB button on Xbox, or the  L1 button on PlayStation. Some Tactical abilities have multiple charges.

Ultimate abilities
These abilities are generally the strongest in a Legend's arsenal and so have higher cooldowns. These can be activated by pressing the default key on PC, the  LB and  RB buttons on Xbox, and the  L1 and  R1 buttons on PlayStation. The cooldown to use them can be reduced by using or a Charge Tower. Players can tell their teammates the status of their ultimates by pinging the ultimate icon in their inventory.
