Quantum

Manipulate time, control gravity and twist the very fabric of space itself! Characters using Quantum Powers can slow down opponents, change their density, or even teleport behind them by altering time, manipulating gravity, and folding space.

Access to Quantum powers is available to members with an active subscription. Non-members may purchase access in the Marketplace for either 600 Daybreak Cash, 600 Marketplace Cash or 600 Loyalty Points.

Trivia

• Quantum is the first power that allows Teleportation
• Prior to March 31st, 2015, access to Quantum powers was included in the Origin Crisis DLC pack. Previous owners of the DLC will retain access to the power.
• Evil Cosmic Boy from the Legion: HQ Orientation alert uses several powers from the Quantum powerset as his own mechanics during his boss encounter. These are more grey in animation.
• Several boss encounters in DC Universe Online use variants of Quantum's Gravity Well as a mechanic. This includes a yellow variant (named Gravity Boomerang in the combat log) of the power used by Captain Boomerang while in The Rogues boss encounter in the FP: Flashtastic Voyage raid, and a red variant spawned by Grail's Father Box while in the Grail boss encounter in the Wonderverse: Fractured God Sphere raid.
