Like A Feather

Like A Feather
Class	Body Perk
Attribute	Body
Tier	Pro (9)
Levels	1
Requires	Die! Die! Die!
Affects	Only affects Shotguns, LMGs and HMGs

Like A Feather removes the weight from a heavy gun. Shotguns, light machine guns and heavy machine guns normally slow V down, and with this perk they do not. It sits in the heavy weapon branch of the Body tree. Any build carrying a machine gun as its main weapon should own it.

Effect

---

The movement penalty these weapons carry is the reason they are usually described as emplacement guns. Taking it away means a machine gun can be run with rather than set up.

Everything else in the branch gets easier as a result. Sprinting is now possible with the gun out, which matters for the perks that read movement, and repositioning mid fight no longer means holstering first.

How to Unlock Like A Feather

---

It sits behind the Pro gate of the Body tree. Die! Die! Die! has to be fully bought first.

Perk Tree

---

Like A Feather is bought from Die! Die! Die! in the Body tree.

Name	Image	Tier	Effect
Die! Die! Die!		Pro (9)	+12.5% Crit Chance at low Stamina.

Character Builds

---

The build is a machine gun Body build that intends to carry the weapon rather than set it up. Without this perk such a build moves at a walk and plays like a turret.

Buy it immediately after Die! Die! Die! at the Pro gate, before any of the damage perks above it. Speed Junkie below it then has something to read, Bullet Ballet makes the moving fire accurate, and the Reflexes movement perks become worth borrowing if the build spreads that way.

Notes

---

Speed Junkie heals V while sprinting, and this is the perk that makes sprinting with a heavy gun worth doing.

Bullet Ballet tightens the spread of the same guns on the move, so the two are natural partners.
