So, there's a couple things I saw in the series that I thought were sort of interesting.

One is the fact that Sly can damage the Clockwerk parts with his cane, which is interesting since the parts were almost completely undamaged from being bathed in lava for a decently long time.

The other is that Sly can dodge electricity attacks from Rajan in Sly 2. I think it makes more sense for it to be electricity versus lightning seeing as it doesn't come from the sky, but rather Rajan's staff, and it seems more consistent.

I don't exactly know where to place these in terms of yields so I figured I'd put it here.
 
Electricity in the Rajan fight moves in one frame. You're better off with this (I'll just dump Sly feats in general here):

https://youtu.be/gcNzjEbIvu8?t=54 in Sly 3, Don Octavio's electric mine things don't seem to travel in one frame, so possibly hypersonic+ or whatnot if you compare Sly's movements to them? (or the boat or whatever)

https://youtu.be/jST5YEhqRVQ?t=1510 Clockwerk (or should I say Clock-La) survives a crash landing into a giant steel fan that explodes (and actually destroys two steel fans) and just vanishes so it may be vaporization.


https://youtu.be/ck1n-IpcxbE?t=32098 At the end of Sly 3 Carmelita blows apart a large steel wall many many times her size with the shock pistol, so this could be good. This wall is *huge* compared to her so for all we know it could be large building level or maybe even city block level. Also if you think about it, Sly's ancestor Tennessee uses a gun that shoots so fast it pretty much reaches its destination instantly (as in you can't see it even leaving the gun), while you can see the gunfire of enemies, probably making it much faster and more potent than their own firearms.

You could probably compare Sly's prison outfit throwing his iron ball and chain to the speed of the enemy's gunfire to get some KE out of it.

Sly can take hits from El Jefe's sword when imbued with lightning (which he calls upon from the sky, doesn't scale to speed though it's one frame) so Sly could survive lightning tier electricity.

https://youtu.be/uDOSFNcqzPE?t=203 Seems to be able to move in tandem with beams of light in Sly 1.
 
I can probably find something, I already found him moving in tandem with what appears to be electricity and even beams of light (though seems to be an outlier).

Though... there seems to be something laser related here, those yellow things are indeed lasers and when Sly activates them the burning lasers don't move in one frame, meaning Sly can move in tandem with another lightspeed thing.

Murray can also jump at speeds comparable to or faster than Octavios sound waves during their fight, should easily get decent subsonic to supersonic results for that. We're probably gonna need some laser based speed feats from the other games as well since I'm not comfortable just using a handful of them from only Sly 1 for stuff like that (Shouldn't be hard since I remember there being instances of that). We also need a calc for Doctor Ms large mutant thing for when smashes that cliff, hopefully it should be consistent with Carmelitas feat.
 
Sly 2 has you jumping in tandem with a moving floor of lasers on a few occasions but that's it.

Sly 3 has you slide on lasers,

Sly 4 has you perceive soundwaves from Ms. Decibel as if they're moving very slowly with the Thief Costume (which is just Thief Reflexes from the first three games), and...yeah that's it.
 
Also could you argue Carmelita's shock pistol shoots at the speed of electricity? It is an electric based projectile after all.
 
https://youtu.be/Fjj3iJMnPag?t=217 The small falling fragments of the flying base appear to catch fire, this could imply they are going at hypersonic speeds (enough to catch fire), which Sly can move in tandem with.

Or it could just be from catching fire from the explosion... I guess
 
We should calculate how much Clockwerk weighs, given the size of his wings (Each one is like 15 feet long eyeballing it) I'm pretty confident all the Class 5 characters can get a decent upgrade to their lifting strength. Also yeah we should treat Carmelitas pistol shots as the speed of electricity, not much reason not to.
