Types of mods

There are six kinds of portal mod.

  • Defensive mods make it harder for enemy players to kill your portals.

    • Shields reduce damage from enemy attacks.
    • Force Amps make portal counter-attacks twice as strong.
    • Turrets used to make portal counter-attacks stronger. They don’t do much any more.
  • Hack mods help you get more items from a portal.

    • Heatsinks reduce how long you have to wait between portal hacks.
    • Multi-hacks let you hack a portal more than four times in a four-hour period.
  • Link Amps extend linking range, so you can link to portals that are further away.
