Supervive: Best Shiv Full Speed Attack Build
Shiv is one of the more straightforward characters in Supervive. She focuses on speed and full-on damage to do hit-and-run tactics against enemies. With her, you’ll want to completely obliterate opponents with her kit, so the emphasis should be placed on attack items and weapons. Here’s the best build for Shiv.

Best Shiv Items
- Turbo Booster: Turbo Booster was made for Shiv as she constantly has her dash ready, which means you can permanently activate this item’s effect. Since it also buffs her flat speed, Shiv can easily kite with this bonus.
- Last Stand: Last Stand is the only safety item you need because it significantly boosts your omnivamp. The healing is greatly increased when you’re low on HP, and since you’re constantly hitting and kiting, you should be able to recover much of your health during fights.
- Soul Drain: Soul Drain is excellent for recovering HP, especially for constant Stomp characters like Shiv. Since you don’t need boots to reach high places because of her kit, Soul Drain provides the best options for you in terms of combat and recovery.
- Overdrive: Overdrive lets you exceed your current omnivamp; the bonuses don’t fall off. However, it’s only good if you’re great at kiting and avoiding damage to replenish HP constantly.
Skill Priority
In general, we want to focus on Quickflip first after having obtained both Chain Bolas and Farstep. Shift lets you shred and dash away from fights, which is crucial due to your squishy build. Shred is the next focus for the potential crowd control, while Farstep is good for repositioning or chasing down enemies. Here’s an example of the skill order:
- Quickflip > Chain Bolas > Farstep Dagger > Quickflip > Fusillade > Quickflip > Chain Bolas > Fusillade > Farstep Dagger
Best Powers
- Blinkstone: Blinkstone is a good opening power in fights, so you don’t consume your Quickflip too much. In addition, it’s excellent for traversing the map.
- Fate Rewinder: Fate Rewinder is a great emergency tool for resetting your HP and bringing you to safety if you get caught in a fight.
