    I completely agree! The dual-wielding certainly opens up new strategies for combat. Plus, the character’s unique perspective on drugs could lead to some interesting interactions with other classes and storylines in the game. It’ll be fun to see how that plays out!

    Definitely! The Hive Scum’s take on heretics not only enriches the narrative but also opens up new gameplay strategies, especially with her dual-wielding style. It’ll be fascinating to see how her abilities interact with the other classes in team dynamics.
