Atlas Strength is a power-up for Murray in Sly 2: Band of Thieves, and a default ability for him in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. It is available for purchase at the beginning of "Jailbreak" in Sly 2 for 900 coins.
Description[]
Atlas Strength is a passive ability that allows Murray to single jump (press ) and sprint (hold
while moving) while carrying an item or guard (press
when near an item or unconscious guard).
Because it allows Murray to sprint while carrying objects, and especially because a carried guard draws attention to nearby guards, Atlas Strength makes it easier to hide or make getaways from guards while carrying something. As such, some of Murray's missions, like "Kidnap the General" and "Bear Cub Kidnapping" in Sly 2, greatly benefit from having Atlas Strength unlocked.
Trivia[]
- Atlas Strength was replaced with Light as a Feather in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, although Light as a Feather does not allow Murray to jump while carrying objects, as he can now jump with objects and rooftop guards (but not flashlight guards) by default.
