Best Shiv Build Guide for Supervive (Patch 1.0)

If you’re looking to make the most out of Shiv in Supervive patch 1.0, you’re in the right place. Shiv’s greatest strength lies in her dashing ability, which empowers her next basic attack. However, her short attack range can make it tricky to land hits while staying safe. With the right build, you can overcome this limitation and turn Shiv into a reliable, high-impact fighter.

Early Build Choices

Grip 1: Longclaw Optics

Start with Longclaw Optics, which boosts your attack range by 15%. At first glance, 15% might not sound like much—but in practice, that extra reach can make all the difference between hitting your target or whiffing an attack.

Grip 2: Rabbit Paw

Next, grab Rabbit Paw. This grip not only gives you additional movement speed but also grants a burst of speed after every dash, along with cooldown reduction for your dash ability. Since Shiv’s kit revolves around landing her empowered shot post-dash, having this reduction ensures you’ll get more chances—even if you miss a key hit.

Core Items

Feystrider Boots

Pair Rabbit Paw with Feystrider Boots for another 15% cooldown reduction on your dash. While top-tier players might skip this setup—relying instead on flawless aim—the extra cooldown reduction makes Shiv much more forgiving for players who occasionally miss empowered shots.

Relics

Sunweaver

For your first relic, go with Sunweaver. This relic synergizes perfectly with Shiv, adding bonus damage to your basic attack every time you cast an ability—which, in Shiv’s case, is nearly every dash. Its damage is impressive from level one and becomes even stronger with upgrades, doubling in effectiveness.

Some players prefer Harmonic Edge for its 40% bonus damage every fourth shot, but it’s a gamble—miss that critical shot, and the bonus is wasted. Sunweaver, on the other hand, provides consistent, reliable damage every time you land a hit.

Last Bite

As a second relic, choose Last Bite. This relic gives you incredible comeback potential thanks to its spell vamp effect, letting you heal through clutch fights. When fully leveled, it becomes a true game-changer.

Perks

To round out the build, here are the best perk choices for Shiv:

• Amplified Speed – Provides extra flat movement speed for better mobility.

• Amplified Omnivamp – Grants lifesteal for added sustain in fights.

• Grace – Offers excellent movement speed until you take damage.

• Second Skin – Adds extra health when your shields drop, helping you clutch intense battles.

• Swiftness – Shaves even more time off your dash cooldown.
