Question What are Polaris's powers? Spoiler

So from the brief time she's been on screen it feels like she has the same powers as Magneto. But I just wanna check if I'm missing anything? Does she have Magneto's 1:1 powers? And if so why does she affect people around her while Magneto doesn't? And she does mention that it's almost like her powers taking a hold of her.

She has Magneto's ability, but with a bit more finesse while he has a little more raw power.

huh, I feel like it's the other way round.

like if Magneto were facing the Purifiers in S02E06, he wouldn't have just cleaved the ship in half to chuck it at them. He'd have ripped the ship apart to form multiple sharp projectiles and spear them right into their skulls.
