Fire Explosion is triggered if you hit Burning target with Overload or another Incinerate. Fire explosion deals fire energy damage that equals to 100% of the damage done with original Incinerate that set target to burn effect. If burning target is a droid or a shield target, and Fire explosion is triggered with Overload, then damage gains additional boost of 100%. This Fire explosion damage can be increased with Rank5B Evolution. Fire Explosion can be triggered by others. Radius of Fire Explosion is +1 Square in all directions from the point of burning target.

Cryo Explosion is triggered if you hit Frozen target with Overload or Incinerate. Cryo explosion deals cold energy damage that equals to 100% of the damage done with original Cryo Blast that froze the target. If frozen target is a droid, and Cryo explosion is triggered with Overload, then damage gains additional boost of 100%. This Cryo explosion damage can be increased with Rank5B Evolution. Cryo Explosion can be triggered by others. Radius of Cryo Explosion is +1 Square in all directions from the point of frozen target.

Overload: Tech ability capable of shutting down enemy's shields, rendering them vulnerable to attack. Overload is typically used to take down shields or synthetics, doing twice as much damage to shields as it does to synthetics. Overload can cause the weapons of most unprotected enemies to overheat, making them unable to fire for a brief period. To use Overload you must equip a proper tool in your hand. This means that you are subject to overload of the overheat perk. Users of Overload must equip Power CTI.
