In this video I do an Eagle Strike on the target from the "Follow the Fiery Trail" mission.

It took me quite some time to get a successful strike recorded. At first I tried to do the strike without the "throwing knife turn", but while it is possible, it was too much trial and error. I could not get it recorded.

So then I turned to the "throwing knife turn". This is possible using the Air Strike skill from the skills tree.

Hope you enjoy the video.

Please explain the controls for Catch Ledge in Mirage. How does one catch a ledge to the side or behind Basim?

You won't even feel the blade.

I think that the Catch Ledge works sinilar to how it worked in Unity; Basim will catch the ledge automatically of jumped at from the right angle.

With regards to catching a ledge or from behind, I don't know if that is possible without the throwing knife trick from the video. This is possible when unlocking the skill that allows you to aim/throw throwing knives while mid air. When you are aiming the movement slows down a whole lot and you can turn Basim in any direction while throwing.
