Shiv has zero interest in playing fair, which is why he relies on hit and run tactics to weaken enemies before he dives in for the kill.

Hybrid build with great slot efficiency, damage, sustain, and power curve.

Great burst and helps farm waves. Synergizes well with shiv's combos.

Crazy value for its cost.
