Infinity Gauntlet Controls
The Infinity Gauntlet controls every ability through keyboard keybinds that unlock as you collect Infinity Stones. This page lists every gauntlet ability with its key, stone requirement, description, and combat tips. Practice these keybinds to dramatically improve kill rates and boss fight performance.
Complete Gauntlet Keybind Table

|---|---|---|---|
| Q | Charge | Power, Space, Reality | Charges the gauntlet to enable combo abilities. Hold Q to build charge. Required before Super Punch, Disintegrate, and Snap. |
| R | Focus | Mind | Focuses energy on a target, dealing sustained damage and providing self-heal. Essential for killing the Power Stone NPC and five-eyed Mind Stone NPC. |
| F | Teleport | Space | Teleports to your cursor position. No cooldown. Used for parkour skips at Space Mountain, Reality's Edge, and Time Tower. |
| C | Shield | Space | Creates a protective shield blocking incoming damage. Critical for surviving the Power Stone NPC laser beam. |
| T | Time Stop | Time | Freezes NPCs in a radius around you. Powerful crowd control during farming sessions. |
| E | Disintegrate | Charge + Power, Space, Reality, Soul | While charged, disintegrates targeted NPCs. Requires four stones plus active charge. |
| X | Super Punch | Charge + Power, Space, Reality | While charged, delivers a massive AoE punch damaging all NPCs in range. Primary farming ability mid-game. |
| Z | Beam | Upgraded Gauntlet | Fires a long-range energy beam hitting NPCs across the map edge. Available only on the Upgraded Infinity Gauntlet from Celestial Forge. |
| V | Meteor | Upgraded Gauntlet | Summons a meteor strike at cursor position. Massive AoE damage for endgame NPC clearing. |
| Q + UI | Snap | Charge + All 6 Stones | While fully charged with all stones, press Q to open the Snap UI. Click to activate. Freezes NPCs in a large field and temporarily disables your gauntlet. |
Stone-to-Ability Mapping
Understanding which stone unlocks which key helps you prioritize collection order:
- Space Stone — Unlocks F (Teleport) and C (Shield). Obtained at Space Mountain parkour.
- Reality Stone — Required for Q (Charge) combos. Obtained at Reality's Edge.
- Time Stone — Unlocks T (Time Stop). Obtained at Time Tower.
- Mind Stone — Unlocks R (Focus). Dropped by the five-eyed NPC.
- Power Stone — Required for Q (Charge), X (Super Punch), and E (Disintegrate). Dropped by the Power Stone NPC.
- Soul Stone — Required for E (Disintegrate) and Snap. 0.33% drop from any standard NPC.
Combo Sequences
Basic Farming Combo
Q (Charge) → X (Super Punch) — Clears groups of standard NPCs efficiently once you have Power, Space, and Reality stones.
Boss Kill Combo
C (Shield) during attacks → R (Focus) during openings → Q (Charge) → X (Super Punch) for burst damage. Use against the Power Stone NPC.
Full Power Combo
Q (Charge) → E (Disintegrate) on high-value targets, then Q (Charge) → Snap UI for map-wide freeze. Reserve Snap for dense NPC spawns or showcase moments since it disables the gauntlet temporarily.
Upgraded Gauntlet Additional Controls
The Upgraded Infinity Gauntlet from Celestial Forge (200,000 kills) adds Z (Beam) and V (Meteor). All base stone abilities remain identical. Beam is particularly effective for sniping NPCs at the edge of the map during kill farming sessions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Charge (Q) not work?
Charge requires the Power Stone, Space Stone, and Reality Stone simultaneously. Collect all three before attempting to charge.
How do I heal with the gauntlet?
Use Focus (R) with the Mind Stone equipped. Focus deals damage while restoring your health, making it ideal for sustained boss fights.
Can I Teleport without the Space Stone?
No. Teleport (F) and Shield (C) both require the Space Stone from Space Mountain parkour.
What happens after I Snap?
Snap freezes NPCs in a large area but renders your gauntlet unusable for a cooldown period. Plan Snaps during high-density spawns for maximum value.
Are Beam and Meteor on the base gauntlet?
No. Beam (Z) and Meteor (V) are exclusive to the Upgraded Infinity Gauntlet obtained at the Celestial Forge with 200,000 kills.
