- In Archwing and Landscape missions, the Elytron vents its propulsion core for 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 seconds, leaving a gaseous contrail that neutralizes enemy missiles and projectiles. The contrail lingers for 10 / 12 / 14 / 16 seconds before dissipating.
- Vent duration and contrail duration are affected by Ability Duration.
- Works against missiles released by Hellion Dargyn variants, as well as Dreg, Ogma, and Gox energy projectiles.
- Cannot be recast until the venting duration has expired.

Afterburner is an Elytron Augment Mod for Core Vent that allows any sort of 
Blast damage to ignite the fuel cloud for a given duration, dealing 
Heat damage to any enemy inside the cloud.
| Rank | Duration | Damage | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 6s | 200 | 6 |
| 1 | 8s | 300 | 7 |
| 2 | 10s | 400 | 8 |
| 3 | 12s | 500 | 9 |
- With proper positioning, Core Vent's clouds can be used to form a temporary "wall" that prevents missiles from entering, which can be invaluable while defending points in Interception.
