Windblast

Windblast is a supernatural ability in Dishonored, that allows Corvo to create powerful gusts of wind. It consumes 50% of Corvo's total mana.

Ability Tiers

Tier I - (3 runes)

Tier II - (4 runes)

With Tier II Windblast, Corvo has the ability to slam people into nearby walls or objects with lethal force.

Usage tips

• Corvo should try to blow objects towards enemies or vice versa. The ability itself provides minimum damage without utilizing the environment. Alternatively, he should throw them off ledges or into water.
• This ability can be used to reflect any projectiles that are slow enough (tallboy bolts, grenades, etc.).
• Windblast is extremely useful for crowd control, particularly at Tier II.
• One blast is enough to destroy a swarm of rats.
