Notable Attacks/Techniques:

- Energy Constructs: Unlike Green Lantern constructs, he does not need to concentrate to maintain them and they are permanent until they are desummoned or destroyed. They can be solid or permeable and can range in size to larger than the Earth, they are capable of tanking planetbusting attacks and class 100 blows and can easily harm Herald level characters

- Quantum Jump: Quasar opens a portal to the Quantum Zone and enters, then opens another portal back to the normal universe and exits, performing a sort of teleportation that can take him anywhere in the universe. Performing a quantum jump causes local gravity disruptions and other damage unless he contains it with an energy barrier

- Energy Drain: Quasar can drain nearly any type of energy from an opponent or object such as a star
