HOW TO PLAY

Choose your return cover before approaching with Psychic Stealth.
Follow shuriken hits with primary fire and remember to recall them.
Avoid spending every movement option on entry and recover cooldowns through safe crossbow hits.
Use Dance of the Butterfly on reachable targets after checking their spacing and escapes.

COMMON MISTAKE

Remaining surrounded after stealth ends without a dash available to escape.
