Pulse Heal was a power utilized by Cole MacGrath in Infamous and Infamous 2. It was a touch-related ability he first gained during the mission "Blood Trail". The effect appeared as though Cole was healing them via an electric shock, in a similar style to paramedics and doctors using defibrillators to restart a persons heart.

Usage[]

Infamous[]

To use the move, the player must approach an injured civilian or ally, press L1 to enter lock-on mode, then Triangle to heal them. This move would give Cole good karma.

In the story mission "The Price", Cole used Pulse Heal to try and save Trish, but her injuries were too severe, and he was only able to bring her back for a few moments before she succumbed to them, showing that even Cole's powers could not save the fatally wounded.

Infamous 2[]

The Pulse Heal retains the same ability that it has in Infamous. If Cole is at Champion rank or above, Pulse Heal can be upgraded to Group Heal, allowing Cole to send a pulse, healing several nearby injured civilians at once.

Cole was unable to heal people inflicted by the Plague in New Marais, though he was able to identify those suffering from it using Radar Pulse, an ability given to him by The Beast in "The Face of Change". During the good karma side of "The Final Decision", Cole could still heal Lucy Kuo to full health while fighting her, should she be knocked down.

With good karma, Cole would sometimes say encouraging words like "You're going to be okay" or "Easy now".
