An area of effect ability[1] which allows a group of probes to gather one more mineral per trip[2] for a short time by enhancing their proton-cutters.[3] Proton Charge only directly enhances their ability to harvest minerals.[1] The duration doesn't stack when used multiple times, but casting it again will renew the duration.[4]
