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 Jumpstart’s regeneration and movement speed to recover near cover. It costs health before regeneration begins, so use it before you are critically low.
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.
Protect wounded allies before Shiv reaches them with Killing Blow. At full rage, Slice and Dice can repeat its path, so move clear after the first pass. Healing reduction limits his recovery but does not stop Bloodletting from delaying damage. Attack Shiv with Pain Battery once it is full. Keep Aura of Suffering running only while enemies remain in reach and its self-damage is affordable.
