“*sigh* C'mon, Mama! I thought I asked you to knock before barging into my room! I mean, it's not like I hate you coming in or anything, just… I was just flipping through some Fixers Monthly pages. … Wanna come read with me and see who our next kill's gonna be, if you're not busy?”

Envy blunt counter damage with Burn and Bleed
A Middle faction identity that turns hits taken into Grudge, spends it on Violet Breaking Slam, and gets bonuses from Envy resonance. Thermal Blades make her Bleed count as Burn as well, so she fits both Burn and Bleed teams. Her status output is below the dedicated Burn and Bleed Ishmaels, and she really shines only when stacked with other Middle identities.
How to play
Reach Envy resonance so Violet Breaking Slam fires as a counter, and let enemies hit her to build Grudge and the Vengeance Mark. Use Totally Badass Ass-kicking to recover SP, Crossing Dervish for debuffs once her tattoos are up, and Violet Breaking Slam as the main damage. Her counter shield scales with missing HP, so staying low is part of the plan.
