With its incredibly low cooldown of 15 seconds, the Dynalar Sandevistan is the most consistent and easy-to-use Sandy so far. It also provides a great damage bonus too, but only moving at 50-percent increased speed doesn’t let it stand out too far from the competition.

Slow time to 10% for 8 seconds, increases Damage by 15%, Crit Chance by 10%, and Crit Damage by 50%. Cooldown 30 seconds.
This little beauty is theapex predator of crit builds. If you have a high crit chance, this Sandevistan has the potential toturn you into a one-hit kill machine. An eight-second activation period isn’t much, so expect to use this Sandy for a few brief but well-aimed headshots.
