Gotta start reading then and that movement sounds amazing. King is awesome as well and I would gladly take his word for it.

Definitely should when you can.

I just realized what would be a cool use for Feather. Say you're at the top of the Golden Cat but you don't want to wait for the interval between a Blink which would potentially force the guard back to make him vulnerable for a kill. You just want to do a high-dive Raven kill. With Feather, you could drop from crazy heights and kill with no delay. I will make Feather popular!

I am unfamiliar with the game mechanics behind standard dropping assassinations, but I just thought of an interesting risk/reward. Imagine if you could survive a normally fatal fall by assassinating someone upon landing. If you goofed up you would hit hard (splat), but if you succeeded you would walk away unharmed while feeling untouchable. I understand the game is largely finalized so this most likely isn't gonna happen, but wow that would be cool.

This will be the reason why I will use feather, this and making quick escapes off rooftops

Well one of the big surprises to the developers was you could survive a fall by possessing a person just before impact. Short of using a power, they won't let you jump and kill someone to cushion your fall. Feather sort of does what you're talking about anyway because it lets you drop from high heights without getting hurt. I'd be remiss in not mentioning that Possession and Blink can do the same thing in different ways and flashier too.

And welcome to the forums! You can call me CJ or CB. I have the connection from hell, but if it's working I'll be glad to answer anything I can for you and I'll speak for Strife and Mak in saying they would too. Anyone probably will if they can. Good bunch of eggs here. You might have noticed that we've settled into a pretty informal rhythm, but it might be best if you have multiple questions to make a new thread so we can give them the attention they deserve. Other than that, just hop in.

Edit: I really, really, really need a hotspot.

And it was annoying as anything to get. It took me an hour at least
