Shiv has a variety of uses:

Shiv has a variety of uses:

*Dispelling a boss or player [[Enrage]] effect.

*Dispelling a boss or player [[Enrage]] effect.



*Building combo points and stacking [[Deadly Poison]] for [[Envenom]].

+

*Though it is not explicitly mentioned in the tooltip, it has been confirmed many times that Shiv cannot be [[dodge]]d. It may also be unable to be [[parry|parried]] or [[block]]ed. This makes it useful in PVP situations when your opponent is low on life and uses a temporary avoidance boost (such as [[Evasion]]).



*Ensuring your stacks of [[Deadly Poison]] do not fall off the target.



*Instantly applying [[Crippling Poison]], [[Mind-Numbing Poison]], or [[Wound Poison]], especially for PVP.

== Poisons ==



The energy cost of the ability depends on the speed of the off-hand weapon:

+

''Base poison/concentrated form''



20 + (10 * weapon speed) = Energy consumption

+

*{{ability|Crippling Poison}}/{{ability|Debilitating Poison}}



So, with a 1.8 speed off-hand:

+

*{{ability|Leeching Poison}} (talent)/{{ability|Leech Vitality}}



20 + (10 * 1.8) = 38 energy

+

*{{ability|Mind-numbing Poison}}/{{ability|Mind Paralysis}}

+

*{{ability|Paralytic Poison}} (talent)/{{ability|Partial Paralysis}}
