Eagle vision | Crafting AC: Syndicate Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Eagle vision is a special ability available both for Jacob and Evie. It allows them to detect and mark enemies (by doing so you will also learn the experience level of opponent), find secret passages and interesting items (for example, hints during missions or chests with crafting materials). In general, eagle vision allows finding items that are not visible in regular mode.
After activating eagle vision mode, the aura around the controlled character becomes blue. Marked enemies have red aura, allies green, and mission objectives - yellow. Chests and other places that allow interacting with them will be highlighted as well. Your character uses eagle vision until he or she starts running. In the ability menu you can develop skills that have direct impact on the eagle vision - they increase its range or allow seeing through walls.
Marked enemies will remain highlighted even after returning to regular view. Because of that, eagle vision is a perfect tool that allows localizing enemies and learning their movement paths. This will allow you to plan assassinations, avoid dangerous places and find hideouts.
There are no limitations of the use of eagle vision. Use it always before planning an action in order to learn about your surroundings. This mode will be very useful during enemy kidnapping, allowing you to plan your route so that you avoid other opponents and detection.
