It does not slow your next fall. Fell to my death twice using it.

Same. lol Not a fun way to find out.
I experienced this last night. It seemed to work fine last week. Unsure when it changed, or if there are unmet conditions.
I jumped off a high area in Revendreth (I was pursuing a treasure chest).
I had popped my parasol before leaping off and even waited about 5 seconds to make sure that there wasn’t any lagging issue. As usual, it took a second to “catch” after I started falling. It did “catch”, however, and it started to slow my fall. Then the parasol actually broke. It inverted, like in a strong wind, and I fell at what felt like full speed to my death.
To note, I pressed no button on my keyboard nor did I click any icon in my UI. I actually turned to speak to my girlfriend next to me when I immediately saw the parasol break and watched my character plummet.
I think I know why or where it doesn’t work. I always want to try to use it off a venthyr elevator when I miss it. It fails there every time.

Same, I used it because I’d just missed the elevator and it failed to deploy even after showing me the parasol and the buff was active.
A little late but It doesnt work unless you activate it before you fall, or jump. :\ Found that out the hard way.
Stylish Black Parasol still broken.
Activated while standing.
Confirmed I had 15 minute buff.
Jumped off a large cliff AFTER I had the buff on me.
5 seconds of falling and nothing happened other than a terrible death when I landed.
Toy appears to do nothing.
If it is working “as intended”, I highly recommend the tool tip for the toy be updated to explain what conditions are supposed to be met for this thing to actually work.

This STILL happens at random. They usually activate at around the same height, but sometimes it’s delayed. Sometimes it’s delayed by far more than is needed to kill the player. If these are too hard to fix can we at least fall damage immunity slapped on to them for when they don’t work?
