The Gravity Vortex is a Light class deployable gadget which, when remotely activated, generates a localized singularity that pulls nearby players, objects, and debris toward its core.

Usage

The Gravot can be selected as one of three gadgets of any Light build loadout.

The primary trigger can be used to toss the gadget a small distance. It will attach to the first surface it contacts.

Once the gadget is armed, the user can use the gadget's secondary trigger to detonate the explosive remotely, from any place at any time.

The gadget can also be retrieved to restore a charge, by interacting with it for a few moments while looking at it from up close.
