Styx: Shards of Darkness - PC
Predation:
----------
Another handy addition to the list of skills in Shards of Darkness is Predation,
due to its sly nature and quick execution. If Styx is hiding inside a chest or
cupboard, he can instantly kill an enemy walking past with a single tap. Upon
using this ability, Styx will emerge from hiding and can be seen by other enemies
within the vicinity. The best way to utilize this skill is by patiently waiting
for a single enemy to approach before striking down.
The downside of obtaining this skill is the time spent getting to it. For the
most part, it’s a late-game skill. You’ll end up spending over 500 skill points
just to reach Predation and then spend another 240 points to obtain it. The
route I recommend taking is to purchase Flying Killer, Pilfering and the Elite
Thrower skill before you grab Predation. I did not find much use out of the
skills located on the right-hand side of the Kill skill tree.
