Some effects and [[Mods]] can make use of part of the player's Super meter for various benefits. Both players and combatants have access to ways to impede or stop a Super ability, such as [[Void]] Suppression or the Darkness Bolt of [[Taken Captain]]s.

*A [[Taken Captain]]'s "Darkness Ball" suppresses a Guardian's super for a time, preventing it from being used even when fully charged.
*The [[Nightstalker]] subclass for the [[Hunter]] can suppress enemy [[Guardian]]s in PvP, preventing them from using their Super as well as slowing them down and limiting their field of vision.
