Concrete | Delsin's powers inFamous: SS Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

The power of Concrete can be regenerated the fastest, by draining energy from the enemies that you defeat.

This category is unique in many respects, because you can use it for the first time, during the battle with the final boss (either while playing as the hero or as the villain). Therefore, you can start using it for good, only during the free exploration of the city, after you have completed the storyline of the game.

This category is, in many ways, similar to the previous three, although it has many unique points. One of them is the fact that there is no division into the powers for the villain and for the hero. As a result, you can unlock all of the powers, regardless of your selected karmic path. Another important difference is that the concrete energy button can replenish spontaneously (along with heavy ammo).

THE NAME OF THE POWER	TYPE	COMMENTARY
Boulder Dash	Regular ability	This is the basic power connected with movement. Unlike the Smoke, Neon and Video categories, this does not increase the speed of movement, nor does it help you reach rooftops faster. Instead, you can count on better protection against the enemy attacks and on the ability to ram into the smaller elements in the environment.
Extended Dash	Regular ability	This ability does not improve, considerably, on the Boulder Dash, although the good news is that you do not need to return to your regular form as often.
Endless Dash	Regular ability	I do not see any particular use for this power. The regular dash is enough to get away from the theatre of fights, or to reach a group of enemies.
Concrete Shrapnel	Regular ability	The basic attack in the Concrete category and, unfortunately, it cannot be upgraded. What is even more, its range is only average.
Extended Shrapnel	Regular ability	It is a good idea to unlock this power, because you can fire more projectiles, in a single burst, then.
Concrete Barrage	Regular ability	The concrete slabs deal extensive damage and, apart from that, are useful for elimination of groups of enemies, instead of single targets. I recommend that you use this attack as often as the heavy ammo allows.
Wide Barrage	Regular ability	Increases the range of the Concrete Barrage, which makes it even more effective and makes it even more useful against groups of enemies.
Concrete Thrusters	Regular ability	This power unlocks still during the final battle. Far jumps and floating in the air are useful only in certain situations.
Double Lift	Regular ability	Unlock this ability only if you liked the Concrete Thrusters.
Triple Lift	Regular ability	Unlock this ability only if you liked the Concrete Thrusters.
Strength of Stone	Regular ability	It is a good idea to purchase this power quickly, especially if you are playing at the highest difficulty level and you need to strive to keep the health bar at the safe level.
Strength of Granite	Regular ability	It is a good idea to purchase this power quickly, especially if you are playing at the highest difficulty level and you need to strive to keep the health bar at the safe level.
Drain Concrete	Power with upgrades	Delsin can drain the defeated enemies for power, right after the moment in which he returns to the city, after the final battle. I recommend that you purchase upgrades for this power, as soon as they unlock, thanks to which you will extend your energy supply.
