You learn about certain pressure points that can temporarily shut down parts- or even the entire body of a creature. Your precise strikes can cripple even the toughest of foes, or aid your allies.

Your consecutive Unarmed Strikes deal additional damage and effects, depending on whether you can keep the combo going. Later on, you learn how to effectively use darts to extend your range, which can be useful for enemies that manage to keep their distance.
