Shiva

To be completed at a later date.

Shiva is the seventh Eikon you receive, and, at this point in the game, you’ll have a lot of customization options available along with the proper amount of Ability Points to master abilities and assign them to whichever Eikons you want. Clive can access Shiva after completing the Through the Maelstrom Main Scenario Quest.

Some of Shiva’s abilities are of questionable utility, but she undoubtedly brings some of the unquestionably strongest abilities in the game. Specifically, Cold Snap and Diamond Dust are two abilities that can completely change the flow of the game in Clive’s favor. Cold Snap can take some practice and getting used to, but the payoff is more than worth it.
