Decay reduces the passive mass loss every large cell suffers — up to 50% less at max level. The bigger you play, the more mass this quietly saves you every minute.
Abilities are permanent passives bought with ability points — no cooldowns, no activation, they simply always apply.

The single best passive for players who like staying big: decay is the tax on size, and this halves the tax.
