So on the off chance that your target isn't dead, it will still be burned/stunned/whatever.
Also Navigator is very versatile. The only Eddie other than Grim Reaper in my opinion that is good at both PVE and PVP. Not only that, but he has a fairly good AI, and a very diverse skillset. In fact, I have used every single one of his skills in PVP, which is more than I can say for GRE Visions or Pharaoh.
It probably also helps that a lot of people got him from Anniversary Souls last week.
