Anthem: All Javelin Abilities & Ultimate Abilities

All Javelin Abilities & Ultimate Abilities in Anthem

Anthem puts you in the role of a Freelancer, humanity’s best defense against a hostile alien world. You’ll have four different Javelin classes to choose from in Anthem, and each one is incredibly different, with their own unique skills and attacks. Here’s all Javelin abilities and Ultimate Abilities in Anthem. 

Below you’ll find a list of every ability for all four Javelins in Anthem. Keep in mind that each one functions differently in combat and fulfills a different role. The Ranger is an all-around attack and defense suit, the Colossus is the tank, Storm is a ranged magic user, and Interceptor is a quick hit and run DPS.
