I

Extra Regen

just a lot of regen in lane, buy most of the time

III

Active

Decay

Rage generation, scales well, and easy to use. Really strong early spike. Will likely force dispels to be bought. Can also sell late if you want.

I

Extra Charge

some early knives

I

Imbue [E]

Mystic Expansion

trying out for dash, feels nice. Can get extra spirit instead or cold front

II

Healbane

Anti heal and heal on kill. Good for most of the game, but sell late when out of slots.

II

Enchanter's Emblem

great stats now, we can get close to 40% spirit res with reactive and dispel, so we can sell for spirit resilience later

II

Reactive Barrier

Just makes you really hard to kill and gives spirit res.

III

Rapid Recharge

big spike for knives. Can sell late or skip and sell extra charge later if you want to commit to dash/tank build

III

Active

Dispel Magic

Almost a core item now with all the debuff slop around (slow hexes, silence waves, decays, haze, mirage, infern, etc.).

I

Active

Healing Rite

if you take too much damage in lane, want to take sinnner's, or vs. a bad matchup

I

Monster Rounds

if you really need to anchor or clear wave

I

Active

Golden Goose Egg

secret eggmaxxing technique. sell for big decay spike.

I

Rebuttal

burgerbox

III

Torment Pulse

good easy damage if you can stay close or vs melee comps. You can sub this for anything you need if it's not a great torment game.

II

Imbue [E]

Compress Cooldown

For dash resets, no need to rush the upgrades

III

Bullet Resilience

default item for gun damage, or look at metal skin vs haze/silver/ven. Warp is still good if gun damage isn't too bad.

III

Spirit Resilience

can sell enchanters for this

IV

Imbue [E]

Mystic Reverb

This transitions us to a dash build, giving great sustain and slow on dashes for big reset value. Can rush if really ahead and you have the souls

III

Greater Expansion

Gives more spirit res and makes dash and ult very powerful

III

Superior Cooldown

dash resets, knives, and bloodletting uptime.

III

Active

Warp Stone

Chase/disengage tool. Great item, but takes an active slot and with M2 movement buffed it might not be as needed every game

III

Counterspell

op if you remember to use it, blocks cc, any ability, including ults if you're locked in. Good for mid contest. MUST BUY INTO POCKET.

II

Debuff Reducer

debuff resist/cc reduction, good against pocket, mo, infern. Builds into spellbreak/unstoppable

IV

Active

Unstoppable

anti cc, also good for punching rejuv crystal

III

Active

Silence Wave

Silence for mobility heroes (mina, lash, pocket, calico) and does flat damage for rage gen that can also be amped if you already have rage.

III

Tankbuster

Much better option now with health buffed.

II

Imbue [E]

Duration Extender

Gives one extra tick for knives, not bad but T3's just offer more value with better slot efficiency

III

Superior Duration

Works on literally everything on shiv, making you do more damage and tankier since it buffs bloodletting. Also buffs all items.

I

Extra Spirit

if you don't want mystic expansion

II

Improved Spirit

if you want boundless later

III

Radiant Regeneration

The Dark Lord.

II

Mystic Vulnerability

stack more spirit res shred and also upgrades to EE, can replace extra spirit if not planning on going boundless

IV

Escalating Exposure

Good shred and damage amp to help knives scale into the late game if you want to stick with knife build.

II

Active

Cold Front

Good early flat damage and slow. Can sell late for better items

IV

Active

Arctic Blast

cc and gives great burst if used before dash or use after to confirm echo dash

II

Suppressor

idk, item is good

IV

Plated Armor

buy for heroes who mainly do damage through on hit effects, (infern, mina, mirage, haze, wraith, etc.) or item bullet procs (tesla, toxic, lucky shot, inhibitor)

IV

Transcendent Cooldown

uptime for actives and more torment procs.

IV

Witchmail

great for dashing and tanking with more bloodletting uptime.

IV

Boundless Spirit

Big damage amp for abilities + items.

IV

Active

Ethereal Shift

just makes you really hard to kill and clears your deferred damage

IV

Spellbreaker

if spirit burst is still a problem. Gives debuff resist

IV

Active

Infuser

Good option for dashing but has less uptime than reverb and takes an active slot. probably good though

IV

Active

Divine Barrier

Better debuff remover, get super late or if pocket is a big problem/

II

Active

Restorative Locket

i think this item has potential

II

Active

Return Fire

very good early for strong gun heroes if you need to counter them, sell for resists later

I

Extra Health

lot of hp for 800 souls, can buy in lane if needed

II

Spirit Lifesteal

could be good instead of reactive if it's somehow not a good reactive game.

II

Healing Booster

could be good now that it works with bloodletting

III

Active

Metal Skin

for burst gun heroes like haze, maybe venator

III

Fortitude

Still fine but there are better options. You get good sustain anyway from heal troopers
