Use cover to stop Shiv landing repeated Serrated Knives, which add bleed stacks and refresh their duration. Move sideways as Slice and Dice starts. Bloodletting delays some damage, so keep your distance while it takes effect. Use Essence Bomb from cover when the enemy is contesting the wave. Recover near cover if its health cost leaves you vulnerable.
Recover health before returning to a fight where Killing Blow can execute you. Dodge Slice and Dice and attack Shiv from range while you are wounded.
If you are low and Shiv is nearby with more health, use Soul Exchange before he can land a lethal follow-up. Otherwise, help your wounded teammate reach cover and use Life Drain on Shiv when you can keep the tether connected without entering his team’s fire.
