|---|---|
| Description | Instantly kills enemies from stealth and saves from clicker grabs. |
| Type | Melee |
| Capacity | 4 |
Unlike Ellie who uses a small knife when performing Stealth Kills, Abby uses her arms and fists when executing a Stealth Kill. This forces her to require a Shiv when killing tougher enemies like the tough Seraphite or Clickers. Also, Silent Shiv Kills are much faster than a regular Stealth Kill, so don't hesitate on using them when there are multiple enemies nearby.
If you happen to have a Shiv when you are grabbed by an enemy, you can use them to deal damage and instantly break free from their attack.

I’m more of a stealth player so I didn’t enjoy the boss fight in the hospital. One touch and you’re dead, that’s not enjoyable or realistic. Might as well run outside and kick a bear. I’d get the same thing happen, dead. Too much story in this game as well, I feel like it’s hours of videos that takes away from the game play. Just give me the details and move it along. I don’t need to know who’s screwing who.
