Mounted on a sturdy construct and armed with powerful elemental lances, the Surge Rider is able to maneuver through a battlefield with ease, delivering forceful strikes as she travels.
Mounted Kinetics
A surge rider creates an elemental steed, a mindless force animated from elemental matter. This functions as phantom steed though it remains indefinitely once summoned and has a movement speed of 60 feet regardless of level. The conjured steed uses the surge rider’s kineticist level in place of her caster level for determining the steed's additional abilities. If the surge rider’s mount is killed, it reappears after 1 hour.
This replaces the basic utility wild talent gained at 1st level
Elemental Lance
A surge rider gains the kinetic blade infusion as her infusion at 3rd level. When the surge rider uses kinetic blade, or an infusion which lists kinetic blade as a prerequisite, as part of a mounted charge, she doubles the amount of damage dealt as though she were attacking with a lance from the back of a charging mount.
This modifies the surge rider’s 3rd level infusion
Beast of Burden (Su)
Beginning at 6th level, a surge rider can channel some of her burn into her mount. While mounted, when the surge rider would accept burn, she can reduce the amount of burn required by one and impose a single point of burn on her elemental steed. Burn imposed on the surge riders mount decreased its speed by 5 feet for every two caster levels you possess instead of reducing its Constitution. The surge rider may use this ability once per at 6th level and an additional time per day at 11th and 16th levels.
This replaces internal buffer
Blast Rider
A surge rider gains the ride the blast utility wild talent as her 12th level wild talent. When the surge rider uses this ability, she can bring her mount with her as long as she is mounted when the blast is used.
This modifies the utility wild talent gained at 12th level
