>Why would you want a spirit build that requires you to be up close versus one that lets you bleed people out from afar and only get close when they are low? There's not much advantage to it.
You don't understand shiv then. First off, the scaling on Shivs dash is extremely good and in rage it can hit twice which will absolutely fucking NUKE people if they get hit by both. Secondly, it's FUCKING SHIV. He is NATURALLY tanky because of how his deferred damage works and he uses a fucking SHOTGUN which is ideal in close quarters.

Anyways, with this build i've been using (plus kinetic dash which i've added) it gives shiv a lot of sustain while still being able to stack a lot of spirit power into his abilities and importantly healing tempo + kinetic dash gives shiv prettty good gun DPS on top and THEN on top of that shiv gets very good move speed allowing him to chase effectively or run away when need be.This isn't a pure all out spirit build but it's the main damage component. Torment pulse is a good suggestion because it helps trigger radiant regen's passive without shiv having to rely on hitting a knife/dash. As long as someone gets close he can start activating it and the effect stacks with every target that takes spirit damage from you.
