Ultras are powerful ship specific abilities that can be used by pilots to help change the tide of battle.
Before an Ultra can be used it must be fully charged, this process can be accelerated by collecting salvage (pictured below) from the battlefield, which is dropped whenever a ship is destroyed.
The reduction in charge time gained from collecting salvage will be applied to the entire team.Once fully charged, pilots can activate an Ultra, after which the ability will go on cool-down. This timer will have to be depleted before the ability can be used again.
Pilots can view the Ultra ability of each ship in their hangar via the Ship Bio option. The Ship Bio also contains information about the other abilities of the ship.
