- Faux-Force Gauntlet: Repulsors and tractor beams in the palms of the gauntlets allow the wearer to imitate Force Push and Force Pull.
- Hand Buzzer: Capacitors located in the fingertips of the gauntlets can release a mild electrical discharge, just enough to stun a humanoid.
- Heavy Metal: The weight of the suit can impede speed and movement.
- Learning Curve: Effective use of the repulsors and tractor beams require extensive training and practice, and even then it will never be as elegant as Force telekinesis.
- Environmental: The armor offers no protection from the elements or vacuum. It is designed for the temperate, controlled environment of the Chaldean Academy grounds.
- Energy Crystal: Located at the back, the crystal which powers the electronics in the armor is vulnerable to attack.
The Chaldean Academy Guards frequently deal with Force sensitives, and therefore must be ready to face FUs on their own terms. The armor itself boasts high resistance to lightsabers, energy and kinetic attacks at the cost of added weight. Repulsors and tractor beams located in the gauntlets allow the wearer to imitate telekinesis in a limited way; stun capacitors in the fingertips likewise imitate a very limited electrical discharge which can stun an opponent. These electronics are powered by an energy crystal located on the back of the suit.
On the other hand, the armor has limited resistance to sonic attacks, and no defense against environmental forces such as extreme heat, cold, and vacuum, and the "telekinesis" offered by the gauntlets is clumsy compared to the real thing, requiring a great deal of practice to learn how to use effectively. The armor is heavy and therefore can reduce the wearer's speed and mobility.
