While journeying through the diverse areas of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, players will encounter numerous consumables that provide significant advantages in battle. Although there are various permanent character upgrades available, these consumables can deliver substantial temporary enhancements, pushing your capabilities beyond your current limitations.
Among these items, Aurum Feathers stand out due to their scarcity. They can only be obtained from a particular type of bird, but what are their functions and when is the optimal moment to utilize them?
How to Acquire Aurum Feathers in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers
Aurum Feathers are exclusively dropped by black birds adorned with golden-tipped feathers, which you can find across all game regions. As you approach one of these birds, you’ll hear their loud calls until you retreat or dispatch them. These creatures can be defeated with a single hit, but they’re typically perched in high places, necessitating the use of ranged items or spells to target them effectively. After defeating the bird, the Aurum Feather is obtained automatically, without needing to collect it manually.
Note: These birds do not respawn, rendering Aurum Feathers a finite resource in the game.
What Are Aurum Feathers Used For in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers?
Aurum Feathers serve as a distinct type of consumable, akin to others. Their uniqueness lies in their ability to provide a temporary boost to one random statistic: either Health, Stamina, or overall Attack damage. The specific buff will be indicated by the colored mist enveloping you while the feather’s effects are active:
- Red: Boosts maximum health.
- Green: Boosts maximum stamina.
- White: Boosts damage output.
The effects last for only 30 seconds, so it’s advisable to use them during intense combat or just before a major confrontation. There is no downside to using these feathers besides a brief pause, making them especially beneficial for boss fights where their advantages can be fully realized.
The additional health conferred by this consumable only applies beyond your current health threshold, meaning if your health is low when the feather effect expires, your base health remains unaffected.
