Playstyle

The Shadowstrix is the highest-risk, highest-reward class in Mistfall Hunter. You don't fight — you assassinate. Stealth into position, Death Mark, burst through Ambush into a full combo, then vanish before anyone responds. If a fight exceeds 4 seconds, you're playing it wrong. Every decision is about whether you can guarantee the kill before you're counter-pressured.
