POWERS & SKILLS:Telekinesis. He can levitate/fly with this ability and lift large segments of bedrock from the ground. Items and even people can be grabbed at a distance and pulled toward him.
Tar Manipulation. Can manipulate a tar-like substance and create creatures from it (squids, whales, lions, giant humanoids, etc.). It can be used to flood large areas of land. He is also able to form masses of it around his hands and strands of it from his fingers.
Electricity Generation. Alright, so this one isn't in the Wiki because I think they've forgotten about it entirely. But it's very clear here that Higgs is able to generate a bolt of electricity up his arm and expel it through his fingers. This is how he makes it rain (more below)!
Weather Manipulation. Can make it rain by casting a bolt of energy into the sky. In Death Stranding, the rain carries an effect called Timefall that rapidly ages whatever it touches. He can control the Timefall element of it, too, as well as the rain's intensity. As this rain is unique, it can also form Chiralium.
Chiralium Manipulation. Can control chiralium, a substance derived from chiral matter, which is considered to be Death Stranding's version of dark matter. It's been around since the Big Bang and appears as hand-shaped crystals after it rains. He can form items from it and enhance weaponry with it, and it is impervious to mechanical and chemical weathering over time.
Chiralium resistance. Can control it but is also highly resistant to Chiral Matter as a DOOMS sufferer, a human who has a greater connection to the Beach (similar to our concept of limbo before the afterlife).
Teleportation. Can blink in and out of reality, transferring himself instantaneously via the Beach. It's used to travel and to evade, and it can take him wherever he wants to go however many times he'd like to go there.
Precognition/Clairvoyance. Higgs wrote in his journal about his own defeat before it occurred. He also demonstrates a strange form of clairvoyance, seeming to know incredibly specific information by smell alone.
Immortality. Higgs is what's known as a "repatriate," a human who can guide their own soul back to their body after the two have been separated. This is implied to be the case in the cutscene directly before his boss battle.
NERFED POWERS:Tar Manipulation. 30% nerf. Higgs can now only make his tar summons Pokemon-sized—no larger than he is. They don't do much else but perform physical attacks, so we're good on the strength front. The tar pools themselves can only cover a small radius.
Weather Manipulation. 30% nerf. Can only make it rain in a small radius. It can no longer alter time!
Teleportation. 0% nerf, but with a note: He'll have to keep it to this plane of reality.
Immortality. 100% nerf. You're on your own, buddy.
